Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
As a child begins to learn the ABCs and to color and draw with greater mastery, it is important to provide the child with a place of their own for practicing these new skills and for uninhibited creation. This child’s desk and chair set from Lipper International offers just such a space. Designed for toddlers, preschoolers, and early elementary school-age children, the desk and its matching ladder-back chair are crafted in sturdy beech wood, with an attractive, child-safe pecan finish. The desktop features a chalkboard work surface, great for a child to practice writing the alphabet and numbers, or for chalk drawing. Slightly tilted for the optimum chalkboard angle, children also can use the chalkboard as an ordinary desktop for pen and paper work. A slender groove runs along the top of the desk to hold chalk, pens, or pencils. Chalk must be purchased separately from the desk set. For storing crayons, coloring books, and other supplies, the chalkboard desktop lifts up to reveal the desk’s storage compartment. A recessed finger hold prevents the desktop from slamming shut on small fingers.
Made in Thailand, the desk and chair require basic home assembly; necessary hardware accompanies the set. The set best suits indoor use. To clean, wipe the furniture down with a soft damp cloth, using a mild soap on marks; dry immediately to prevent water damage. Avoid using non-washable markers and paints to preserve the furniture’s veneer. Assembled, the desk measures 25-1/2 inches wide by 16 inches deep by 26 inches high, while the chair measures 11-3/4 inches wide by 13 inches deep by 23-1/2 inches high.

Ditch that new video game, get this instead!!!,
This review is from: Lipper International Child's Chalkboard Desk and Chair Set, Pecan (Toy)
I know this review is about the product itself - such as the quality/build/value etc. However, I must begin by saying a few words on the importance of this item.
This is probably one of the most significant purchases you can make for your little one. This is where it will all begin - a private, very own place for them to be creative. Sure, the coffee table or the dining table would work - but this where he/she is the boss. Practicing writing ABCs on the dotted lines, coloring a flower or even solving a small puzzle - this is their very own personal space. So, yeah - ditch that new video game you were about to buy and get this instead. So, basically for the same reason I wanted to get my son a small desk/table and a chair. But I was blown away by the lack of selection and higher prices everywhere. I mean, if you compare the prices to a full sized furniture - it's crazy. So, my search for a desk found me this set. I found this to be the most value for money. I should mention that I purchased this set at a different retailer because it was cheaper there. The desk and the chair come un-assembled, but it's not too much work to assemble them. You should be able to do it in about 30 minutes. One tip for assembly is that do not tighten the bolts/screws all the way at first. Just barely enough to hold the pieces together. Then put in on a flat surface, like on a table, and finish the assembly. After the assembly, both the desk and the chair seems solid. The thickness of the legs are only about 1/2", really wish they were a little thicker. But they are still sturdy. I like the desk, which has a good-sized compartment under the top surface. It can hold some books, papers, pencils etc. The lid (or the top) goes up and down effortlessly and it has a mechanism that prevents it from falling straight down. You will need to actually push it down all the way to close all the way. There is also a recessed area below the top so that the top will never close shut catching on little fingers, nice!! The color matches the one shown in the picture. As pictured, the desk has a chalk-board top, however, it's not dull black like in the classrooms. My son hasn't used this as a chalkboard yet. The top of the desk is slanted JUST A LITTLE, enough to roll a round pencil, but anything flat will stay put. There is a slot towards the edge of the desk where you can put the pencils/pens. The top is actually flat enough to be used as a little dining space. My son sometimes will have his lunch but we use a place-mat. Overall, I am happy about the purchase. It's a good value and I love seeing my kid writing his ABCs on this desk. RECOMMENDED.

Disappointed,
By Amado13 (New York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lipper International Child's Chalkboard Desk and Chair Set, Pecan (Toy)
We just received this set, was super excited but when we opened the box, we had two problems. First, at the edge of the blackboard, a part of the wood was detached. Before purchasing I notice that this was a common complaint but surly I was in denial that I would not receive it that way, but I did :(. Second, as I began to unpack the desk, I see not just one, but two splits on both sides of the chair where the the screws needed to go. I was so disappointed as well as my 7 yr old who was so excited to have her table assembled and ready to use. I called the company to complain about the problem, they were more then understanding and quickly sent out a new part. So with all the trouble I still like the set, and believe it or not we are going to order another one just as soon as I am done writing this review. SO buyers beware of some minor or major damages.

Great preschool desk!,
By Sally (Illinois) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lipper International Child's Chalkboard Desk and Chair Set, Pecan (Toy)
We got this desk for my 3-yr-old after waiting months for it. Looking online in Jan., we decided it seemed to suit our needs, but couldn't find it available anywhere. Contacted the manufacturer, who were making more, but we still had to wait months for it to become available. But it was worth waiting for! My (fairly tall) son fits it perfectly, and I don't think he'll outgrow it anytime soon. It was very easy to assemble, and is sturdy and attractive. It doesn't feel cheap in the least (like so much kid's furniture can). We can fit all my son's coloring books and his tin of crayons inside, so my kitchen table is much less cluttered now! It really is a lovely piece of furniture for the price.
