Just bought this today for my son who is turning 3. It holds tons of paper and other things which is great and I love the way the top opens up to be used as an easel. The light doesn't really provide a whole lot of light but it's a nice feature.

It's not too hard to put together but there are no written directions, only pictures. You can expand the desk so that it grows with your child and after I got the whole thing together I wished I just went ahead and made it bigger right away. You basically have to almost disassemble the thing to make it taller and I don't see us going through all that trouble down the road (I'll probably lose the directions that tell me how to do it by then anyway).
Box suggests desk is for ages 2-6 and I think that is about right. Too small for older children, especially the chair.

My son really enjoyed his desk all day today and I look forward to lots of great progects. It is even reinforcing to him that everything has a place and to put the lid back on the markers etc.
It's really great!

3.0 out of 5 stars SHIPPING CHARGES OUTRAGEOUS!!!, November 2, 2004

I would LOVE to buy this item but I believe $80+ in shipping charges is completely outrageous. I paid to have a whole sofa and loveseat deleivered from NC for less than that. Why would someone buy this over another desk here when the charges are so much less for them. Tried to go to multiple Toys R Us and they do not sell it in store. Am I missing something - are people actually paying over $150 for this???

This is a great item. I've read the reviews and done my own research. It's the best childrens art activity desk out there. I really want to buy it for my son for Christmas, but can't possibly afford an $80 shipping charge! I've paid less than half that to have items twice that size and weight sent to me. Please consider lowering this charge. The item only costs $70!

If the shipping comes down to a reasonable price, I'll definitely purchase this desk! Help!! Thank you!
