"If it's windy, the Take It Easel is more secure and less likely to blow over than previous easels I have owned (Open Box M, French, Soltek, etc), and under extreme conditions it can easily be anchored further."

I've had my Take It Easel for many years, and it is has helped to make painting on location a more pleasant, hassle-free experience. The Take It Easel is light weight, and its shoulder strap affords hands-free toting. When I arrive at my painting site, the Take It Easel is easily set up. The Take It Easel accommodates my large pastel box within easy reach on it's crossbars and also works well for oil painting. If it's windy, the Take It Easel is more secure and less likely to blow over than previous easels I have owned, and under extreme conditions it can easily be anchored further.

The quality of the Take It Easel has been excellent. The wood and hardware have held up beautifully. If I lost an accessory or needed an adjustment, the Nadeaus have been quick to remedy the problem.

The easel has been easy to carry on airplanes, but on family vacations I can just pack it in my husband's golf bag along with his golf clubs.
