1 sided easel??? - virginia -
Well, I read some of the other reviews about the chalkboard side of this easel and I should have listened. The dry erase and paint side are AWESOME. I set up the paints/markers in the morning and my daughter enjoys it all day long. As for the chalkboard side, I did what the directions said and more. I used several pieces of chalk and rubbed them horizontially and vertically all over the board, then erased it with a paper towel. I repeated this process 3 times and it's still difficult to write on the board. The board does not grab the chalk. I even used 2 different brands of chalk. I'm thinking about painting it with black chalkboard paint to see if that will work.

Less of a value than the paint spinner - Lara J. Henry -
I bought this because my son absolutely LOVES the paint spinner. This is the same basic plastic base with an adjustable size spinner wheel to hold the ceramic pieces. However, the ceramic pieces sit much higher in the spinner than the paper would - meanwhile the "splash shield" sits at the same height, leaving zero protection against the spraying paint. Also, the paint provided is in MUCH smaller and less user-friendly bottles than the paint spinner bottles. The ceramics supplied are cheap - to be expected - but VERY cheap, and the square plates which are supposed to be hung with a ribbon through pre-cut holes do not have holes. It comes with four square plates and four very small circular plates and then - it's done.

Stick with the original paint spinner and order some refills. This is not a valuable addition to the toy closet.
