Measures 26"L x 22"W x 50"H. Some assembly required.
Amazon.com Product Description
The RoseArt Smart Easel provides a sturdy work surface, handy access to markers and materials, a dry erase board and a roll of paper that attaches to the easel to keep your young artist's creativity freely flowing. Intended for ages four and up, this kid-sized easel also features a lightweight, portable design so that it can easily be taken outdoors or on the road. This means that your little van Gogh can be out in the field painting sunflowers in no time, and that the whole easel can be compactly stowed away when not in use. 
The Smart Easel is lightweight, portable, and features pockets, and pen holders. View larger. | 
A large fabric under-tray serves as a catch-all for finished artwork. View larger. | Art Anytime, Anywhere
After fairly simple assembly, which requires an adult but not any tools, the included 50-foot roll of butcher paper slips onto a bar at the top for an ongoing paper supply. Three plastic clips are included to hold the paper securely in place at the bottom. The Smart Easel also comes with eight washable markers (in classic rainbow colors plus versatile brown and black), so your young artist can get started right away. Two flaps swing out from the easel's sides, featuring mesh pockets and elastic pen holsters that are designed to hold a variety of coloring materials. The plastic paint tray at the bottom is the perfect size for small paint jars, wet brushes, glue or glitter. A large fabric under-tray at the base serves as a catch-all for finished artwork, at least until the refrigerator debut or hallway retrospective can be scheduled. When art time is over, or a new location for drawing is desired, the easel can be quickly washed down and folded up. The fabric side flaps, under-tray, and carrying bag are all made of washable materials, and the paint tray can be removed for cleaning or spills. Stray marks from the washable pens can be removed from most surfaces with warm water and mild soap. The easel's durable metal frame with plastic connecting pieces is 50 inches tall and has a sturdy 4-leg design. Weighing in at about 13 pounds, the easel is substantial enough to remain stable while in use, but light enough to be carried by an adult or older child. The set also includes a large bag with a handle and shoulder strap for easy transportation. Set-up and Organization Features
A slight downside to the easel is its assembly process. Although the easel includes easy-to-read directions, and though the pieces themselves were easy to snap together without any tools, the set-up was a bit confusing and took about 30 minutes. Once assembled, the easel has an inviting appeal. The design of the side flaps definitely encourages tidiness. Plus, having all the supplies neatly on hand, and all the colors in full view, helps keep the creative momentum going. The thrill of having all that paper at your fingertips is also a great incentive to make more art. Another small downside is that the paint tray is a bit too narrow to hold a mason jar for cleaning brushes or to comfortably balance an open watercolor box. And while the tray's separate cup-shaped space is handy for preventing spills, it is also quite small -- about the size of one paint jar or a Dixie cup. And inconveniently, the easel doesn't come with any dry erase markers or erasers, which makes its whiteboard seem like an accident waiting to happen. However, even if the dry erase board gets permanently marked, it will still serve its main purpose as a sturdy work surface for the paper. Overall, the RoseArt Smart Easel inspires creativity in young artists-to-be, with an easy-to-clean, portable design that will keep parents pleased. What's in the Box
Easel with dry erase board, side flaps, under-tray, paint tray, carrying bag, 50-foot paper roll, and 8 washable markers.

 Perfect for a limited space August 26, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
We got this so our daughter could have one (this will be for her birthday) that can be put away when the space is needed for other things. It has a wrinkle where the whiteboard folds (and it gives a little when marking on). We tested it to know what to expect on her birthday. Other than that, it seems remarkably sturdy.
Bought this on lightning Deals and my 3 year old and 8 year old Cant get enough August 10, 2008
I bought this a few weeks ago for $[...] on a lightning deal, bought some paint pens to go with it and set it up for my daughter and son, They cant get enough, even at $[...] , I would buy another if I needed it. This is a very good product overall, yeah the easel has a line down the middle but its **Portable** and can go anywhere, and I have a school art supply place right next to my apartment so the paper hasn't been an issue. I recommend this for anyone!!
review for easel August 9, 2008
I bought this product for my 4 year old son. It is really cool because you can paint or use markers and that is what he really loves to do. all art promotes creativity and that is very important esspecially for small children. It was very easy to put together, everything just snaps into place. it has sufficient storage space for markers, paint, and his smock.
 Don't expect to create a master piece on this! July 21, 2008
I got this easel at 75% off. It is quite easy to put together and it looks as good as the picture, except ... the drawing board actually comes in two seperate pieces. This makes drawing/ painting in the middle quite impossible.
rose art easel June 16, 2008
She loves to color and now is painting on the paper. Keeps her brain active during the summer and thinking of things she can do on the easel. Love this product alot. Just need to get the right paper size for it.
