I have been familiar with Wacom tablets for years, but never had the need to buy one until now. The biggest challenge I faced was that Wacom has TOO MANY versions and levels of tablets to choose from. If you want a reasonable size tablet that you can draw on for art, creative projects or like me for collaborating with clients in online meetings, then this tablet works well. It works on both my MacBook Pro and my Windows Desktop equally well, and the setup was easy - just plug in the USB cable that comes with the tablet and it will connect to the internet and allow you to download the appropriate drivers for your tablet and your computer. A CD comes with the tablet as a backup in case you do not have internet when you install it. I'm very happy with my purchase.

Takes some getting used to if you've never used a tablet-to-screen device before. Excellent little tablet for the price. You can create professional grade work with this device. My ONLY issue is that I am quite heavy handed (I have software that allows changes in pressure, so I can press pretty hard) and the board scuffs up fairly quickly. I have yet to have it make any sort of difference in the feeling when making art, though. If you want to get in digital art with a tablet-to-screen device, this is higher quality than the price tag suggests. Wacom is normally a fantastic company (unless you've purchased a device that undersold) so you're getting their support with this and that means a lot too.

For budget-conscious graphics designers and artists - this tablet is a great way to start getting familiarize working with a stylus!

This Wacom tablet is amazing, and easy on the wallet. The tablets are bundled with a specific software, but you can use any tablet with drawing, comics, manga, painting, and writing. This model is the only one without touch capabilities. Not a deal breaker, because there are six programmable keys. The surface of the tablet feels like real paper, and the pen is full size.

Very easy to use and just an all out great tool for a blooming artist. My 15 year old daughter received it for her Christmas gift and she loves it.
