Toys and Games Reviews of Little Tikes Double Easel
Customer Review: Buyer beware....
Summary: 1 Stars
We had to go through two of these before my wife and I gave up. The first one we received had two problems: 1) holes were not drilled in the proper places so there was no way you could put it together; and 2) the chalkboard was cracked and had huge chips in it. We had to drive and return this one to [our local store] and they provided us a new one. The second one had the following problems: 1) the chalkboard was not only chipped, but a very sharp piece fell off; and 2) the clip used to attach papers broke upon installation causing the spring mechanism to fly into pieces in different directions.
My 2 year old son could've picked up the either the spring or the sharp chalkboard piece and either cut himself or choke on it. The chalkboard especially is made of a brittle type plastic that seems prone to easy cracking/chipping. I'm going to be writing a separate letter to Little Tikes as this presents a huge safety hazard for a 24 month old, of which they've identified as an appropriate age for this product. If you are going to order this, you should be vigilant about watching your kids since the construction seems less than adequate.

Just like any great artist, your little one should be prepared for that moment when creative inspiration arrives.

The Double Easel is made of durable plastic and comes with wide trays on both sides for storing art supplies (not included), as well as a large piece of chalk and an eraser (included). A large plastic clamp on one side of the easel holds down a 50-sheet pad of paper (included), and the two storage trays are removable for easy cleanup. Designed for use by one or two children at a time, the Double Easel folds together for compact storage. Measures 43.5 inches tall. --Chris Burns
