Review: Just what I was looking for - This was very easy to set up, Ulta light. Compact easel fits easily into my painting bag. The top and plastic shelf fits nicely in my bag as well and are both very sturdy. I love you can adjust the top part for watercolor. The shelf does a great job holding my painting palette and water. The thing I noticed the top is a little wobbly so best not to over load. But a 12x15 watercolor pad works fine. The easel is light weight so heavy winds could be problematic, I figured hanging my small cooler bag with a few water bottles will help with that. Other possible problem nobs and levers and top latch are all plastic. So important to be gentle with these when adjusting. I noticed too the protective cap, looks like you could put a small camera on it as you can see the screw on top. I have not tried that. So overall I recommend, for the price it's a great entry level easel to see if you enjoy plein air watercolor. Not recommended for any thing using large panels. I look forward to to using this outside and inside as well.
Review: Tripod is the best part, not bad but wait for a sale - Got this at a significant sale, and at the price paid it's a good deal. The back panel and palette honestly are a little flimsy. I would suggest Meeden look into making a bamboo version or something of the back panel in particular. But at the same time, are your really going to plein air paint in gale-force winds? The more important selling point is that this is a really nice, easy to use, very lightweight tripod. People complain that the clamps feel flimsy, but I haven't experienced problems with them, and if they were metal it would add a lot to weight. The tripod itself is a standard size thread, so you can use this for cameras. The threaded base even comes off (see clasp in photos) so you can save the threading on your camera from repeated use if you intend to use it this way, by keeping it with the camera and separating from the base via the clasp. I don't know that I'd be giving this more than 3 stars at full price, but if you catch it on sale, it's really nice and lightweight for indoor or outdoor use. Nice big functional palette, space for a water cup. Significant height adjustment on each leg. Get it on sale, especially with the multiple uses intended, and you'll probably be happy.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can additional or replacement palettes be ordered?**
A: Looks like they aren’t $54.97 anymore and they never followed through with this request for a replacement pallet. I wanted to recommend this to a friend as I have one already but seeing the price soar and this empty promise has made me reconsider recommending it to anyone. I realize there was a pandemic to deal with but that was 3 years ago so it would seem there's no excuse for forgetting all about this. I'm disappointed and would like to think the seller will finally address this, but am not holding my breath.

**Q: How do you separate the plastic pieces without breaking them? The instructions should include tips about how to accomplish this.**
A: You are correct. There are no instructions for separating the parts. We had three people trying to separate them without breaking the plastic. The narrow hinged piece (leg) on the back of one disengages at the two edge tabs: pry apart gently. The two flat parts slide apart, and not easily. They are very tight together, but do slide apart.

**Q: Hello Seller, can i buy only the palette without the tripod?**
A: Hi there,
Thanks for your inquiry, the palette palette is not sold separately.

**Q: Has anyone figured out a solution to use this palette on a decent tripod? product has potential but that tripod is just such a piece of junk.**
A: This tripod works fine if you stabilize it by hanging something heavy with a carabiner clip from the center post.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very portable, easy to use
*by C***Y on August 13, 2025*

Had this a while now. Its very light-weight, which it's supposed to be. Very portable, easy to put up and take down, yet sturdy enough. I like that it easily converts to flat ir slanted surface, so important for watercolour. I do use a sling with something heavy to add weight, just in case the wind picks up. The sling easily attaches under the palette - which is quite usable, by the way!
