Our take on the SoHo Urban Artist Black Aluminum Studio Easel

The SoHo Urban Artist is a lightweight aluminum studio easel with a black powder-coated finish, a bottom canvas tray, and a swing-out brush and palette holder plus a rag hook. It adjusts in height and folds down to about 3.5 inches deep at 7.5 lb, so it moves between studio and outdoor work easily. Rubber-tipped legs add grip on hard floors and uneven ground. It is a budget-priced aluminum easel rather than a heavy wooden studio stand, so expect it to suit small to medium canvases more than large ones.

Questions and answers

Is the SoHo Urban Artist easel worth it?
For small to medium canvases and painters who need portability, yes. If you work large or heavy, a heavier wooden studio easel is the better buy.
How much weight or canvas size can it hold?
It is an aluminum easel at 7.5 lb, so it suits small to medium canvases. Very large or heavy canvases will make the frame flex.
Does it fold up for travel or storage?
Yes. It collapses to about 3.5 inches deep and weighs 7.5 lb, which makes it easy to store or carry to an outdoor spot.
What is included in the box?
The easel comes with a swing-out brush holder, palette holder and rag hook. Assembly is required and tools are not provided.
Can I use it outdoors?
Yes. It is listed for studio and outdoor painting, and the rubber-tipped legs help on uneven ground. It has no casters, so you carry it.
When is the price lowest?
Art supply easels like this one tend to dip during back-to-school and holiday sales. Check the price history before buying.
