I don't think I'm getting one for Christmas, but I saw a really cute one at Big Lots today for $19.99 that I might get for his birthday in June. It was red/blue/yellow/green and had bins underneath. It had a chalkboard on one side and dry erase on the other.
TRU had a deal on the Immaginarium Easel- for 23.44 (orig 35.00) however it was sweeter. It was BOGO 50% off. so i called my neighbor and asked if she wanted one for her son.
I really wanted to get the IKEA one for DD for the holidays, but DH is convinced she's too young for it. I think we're going to get it for her birthday in September instead.
P.S. Thanks to pp about the crayon/chalk set advice, I think we may buy that as well.
Re: If you're getting/have purchased an easel...
I'm considering it.........
Saw lots at Xmas Tree Shop for $20 if that helps.
This is what I have. I bought the paper roll, but not the crayons/markers/chalk set. I wish I had bought that too.
I will be getting DS the Ikea one for Christmas. We have 2 family members that have it and rave about it.

I really like this one from Buy Buy Baby. It's $99.
We got this one at Costco that doubles as a desk.
