Just what I was looking for, and at a great per-unit price. The company was also very helpful and communicative when there was an issue, which was quickly resolved.

Arrived promptly and was easy to assemble and use immediately with a Post-It large easel pad.

I just got this easel but I am already in love. We have been using some really cheap tent-pole style easels for years now but after trying this one I plan to switch them all out!

This model is heavier than the cheaper tent-pole style easels (which have no top clip bar or support bar). We plan on shipping this one for conferences, so it does increase shipping but the stability is so worth it!

The top bar is super easy to put on and off. You lift up a small red lever and push the small piece of plastic covering the opening on top of the easel and simply drop in the top bar and flip down the red lever.

The support pegs that hold the flip-chart have notches to stabilize the chart. I find that to be a huge improvement over the other easels that just have a flat peg to rest your poster/sign/flip-chart on.

The legs on mine telescope nicely. You could use it on a table top or on the floor, which is nicer than my nonadjustable tent-pole easels.

It just feels so firm on the ground, it's really reassuring if your using it on an aisle at a conference where people are walking by and may bump into it. Unlike the tent-pole easels which fall over with the slighted graze of a coat sleeve.

It does have a much larger footprint than expected, so the one downside is that if your floorspace is limited this easel may take up too much space. I think for most spaces it would work, including the 10'x10' conference booth where we plan to set it up.

Mine was sold by Audio-Visual Direct and fulfilled by Amazon. It was shipped quickly, arrived on time, and was packaged very well (box inside of a box, so you have the option to keep the manufacturers box for storage). The shipping box could have been smaller, but it works better for me because I can reuse it to ship all of my marketing materials and the easel to Hawaii and back.

Easy to put together, folds up into a box that's about 3.5ft so easy to put in the back of the car, easy set up and holds the big easel pads no problem, will likely get another one.

I had to unexpectedly buy an easel so swung by Office Depot and bought their store brand. Didn't like that when I hung a standard 30" highg flipchart on it, the little support "arms" couldn't be lowered far enough to support the flipchart. It was also only 65+ and I found myself having to crouch or squat down to write on the bottom third of the page.

Tried 3 other easels (a Staples brand and another via Amazon) and this is the winner, by far. It's 70", so easier to write on the bottom of the page. Its legs are clamped into place with actual clamps- no having to guess which way to turn to get the extendable legs to pull out or retract. This had the easiest mechanics for how the top piece that holds the flipchart is attached to the tripod. While the two pegs that hold the flipchart under the top clamp are fixed (other models has clips that slide left and right), they are positioned where the flipchart can easily hook on, and from my perspective, it's one less moving part that can break.

I've only just got it so can't offer feedback yet on durability.
