I love t his easel. It is very light weight and sets up in 30 seconds.
I have been using it for many years and I am glad I bought it.
It is starting to wear out now, but I am not complaining because it has given me 100’s of beautiful plein air paintings.
My only advise is that I sometimes wish that the cross bar could go higher, like when I want to paint a 5X7 at eye level while standing.
I would never say it is flimsy, it is light weight. If the day turns out to be very windy I can always hang my water bottle from the cross bar to weigh it down. But every time I carry it to paint , (once a week), I am happy that it weighs almost nothing.
