Editor's Notes
February 27, 2019:
Picking the right flipchart easel is all about determining your needs. If you expect that you'll need to carry the easel to a lot of off-site locations, then your best bet will usually be a traditional tripod-based model, since they collapse and/or fold up to fit in the back of a car. They are also generally lightweight and usually, though not always, more affordable than the wheeled variety. If you think a tripod model is up your alley, then your best choices are the Viz-Pro Light, Nosiva AE8425-01, and Navy Penguin 40 x 28". For those on a tight budget however, these may not be an option. If you find yourself in that boat, then consider the low-priced Audio-Visual Direct 16101-PH, Displays2Go EAS3769SLV, and US Art Supply Boardroom XL. Those who plan on doing all of their presentations in one building and want something that offers more stability should take a look at the wheeled models on our list, like the WeYoung Magnetic, Viz-Pro Dolphin, and Master of Boards Wheeled. The WeYoung Magnetic is a particularly elegant option, as the drawing board is made from tempered glass. The Maxtek BUB-7010 is a versatile model that features a 360-degree rotating white board, so you can set it up horizontally and work on it in the same manner as you would while writing on a table. It is also double-sided, so you get twice the drawing space as most other units.
