Assembly instructions may prove difficult

As stated in other reviews you are on your own for assembly. 4 Step instructions assume the easel is part assembled into 3 parts when in fact it is not part assembled and comes in 14 pieces (not including the screws etc). That said it took me just under an hour to assemble and unlike other reviewers I had not bits left over. to me it looks good quality and worth the price tag as I have seen similar at a lot higher price.

One of your previous reviewers is exactly right - you do most definitely need to be a master carpenter/joiner to assemble this easel. If I hadn't been able to get the actual hands-on assistance of a friend, with step-by-step instructions from him in person, as to the correct order, essential to assembling the many parts - and physical assistance with every step - I would still be looking at a beautifully packed box of jigsaw parts. The easel is fine if slightly more unstable than the Shannon (W&N) I already use. I needed your two Tiber easels to erect on either side of this - as I paint a lot of triptychs and need to paint the 3 canvasses in a row. The easels are good value for money and are both now in use.

Great Easel Awful Instructions
09 May 2019 | John Lightburn
The easel (when finally built) is of good design though with a few manufacturing flaws. The feet are not quite level causing one corner to need a small cardboard chock to stop the easel rocking. Two bolts that hold the tray were impossible to fully tighten as the drilled holes are not big enough, this could be fixed by changing the nut supplied to a captive nut and the bolt having an groove for alan key rather than being smooth. We also have two brass plates that neither appear on the instructions so no idea where these go. The easel comes in a long box with nothing partially assembled but the instructions assume that magically upon opening the box the easel assembles itself into three parts. If this was the case it would then just have been fiendishly hard to assemble rather than just virtually impossible. If you are a master carpenter then go ahead and buy this easel. If DIY is not your first passion I would not buy until a YouTube video appears or they send partially assembled parts. Now that it is up i'm happy with the easel. For the money this is a decent easel and if they improved the instructions i would not hesitate to recommend if you want to paint large canvasses.

These are great quality easels from the same manufacturer as the Winsor & Newton Shannon easel.
The Tiber studio easel is a sturdy 9.3kg H frame stand with adjustable recline angle and has been manufactured from seasoned oiled beechwood and is held together with solid metal fittings to ensure durability and stability.
The easel will hold a maximum canvas of 134cm and the overall height is 264cm x width 52cm x depth 57cm. The handy tray and canvas support is suitable for holding brushes and paint tubes.
