This is truly well designed. I just bought a nice portable easel, but would likely have gone with this one had I known about it. It does trouble me, however, that someone says he has waited nearly 4 months and has gotten the runaround from the mfg. That would stop me cold. That instead of answering the negative review, they deleted it doesn't bode well for this company. If I see it in a store, I'll consider buying it, but paying Madison / Soltek in advance? I don't think so.
Owned one since about 2012. Still going strong with it. By far my favorite easel.
Is the quality of the easel as high as the quality of the video?
Mike L oh snap.
El viento lo tira?
I have to sit when I paint, would this easel work for that? The lower painting crossbar would have to be able to come way down, is that possible?
I used canvas on 1/4" MDF board for my oil paintings. Can the easel hold a board weight or can it hold only a stretched canvas?
Hello, could you please advise if the Soltek Easel is available to purchase in the UK. Thanks.
I'm researching this thoroughly. This is an investment. However, most serious plein air painters I know use these.
How do I call Soltek? I think I need to send it in to be repaired.Thanks

Whoa! $437!!! That's too rich for me. Sorry, Soltek.
Good thing they're not here with us anymore.
This looks great! I'm glad I found it before bought a heavy wooden one, or a flimsy metal one.
Good to know--thanks.
