It is easy to assemble and easy to re-adjust the height for older or younger children. The frame is smooth, solid wood and very sturdy. The plastic trays and wing nuts are also good quality and seem like they will hold up well. I read some reviews before I bought it that the chalkboard was kind of hard to write on unless painted over with special chalkboard paint, but we haven't had any problems with that- the chalk that comes with it writes well and shows up clearly.
I would definitely recommend the Melissa & Doug easel for children AND adults. It's that good!
I did NOT receive a discount in exchange for my review. I purchased this item at the regular Amazon price. I am reviewing this item solely because I want to share my experience with other potential customers. Have a great day and happy shopping. :)
The only problem is that my grandchildren are minimalists. They think that, if they draw a couple of lines and a squiggle, that's it for that page. I'm insisting that they fill the page (too bad about their artistic sensibilities--they'll survive somehow) or I just might go broke buying pad after pad.

I was disappointed that I got a damaged pad; one of the vertical sides of the cover along with about 8-10 of the top pages were all damaged and torn.
