NALA Pro Study Desk With Easel

Two drawers, one large and one small, keep books, tablets and art supplies sorted. A magnetic bar clips onto the top to hold clipped paper, a book or a tablet, and side hooks with two pegs hang a school bag. There is also a cable notch to route charging leads out of the way.

It is a solid wood children's desk with a tilting top that switches between a flat writing surface and a raised easel. The top locks at four angles, so your child can write, read or paint at the same desk. It sits within our kids table and chairs range.

The desktop locks at 10, 15, 25 and 35 degrees. Flat at 10 suits building and puzzles, 15 helps with writing, 25 eases glare while reading, and 35 props the top upright for painting and drawing. A turn of the wooden calliper mechanism sets each angle and holds it steady.

The tilt runs on a non-pneumatic wooden calliper rather than a gas spring, so it settles gently and will not snap shut on fingers. Each angle clicks firmly into place before use. The corners are rounded and the whole frame is solid wood with a clear, non-toxic varnish. Adults should set the angle for younger children.

The desk works well from around three years through the early school years and beyond. At 1120 mm long and 690 mm wide, it gives an older child room to spread out books and paper, while the tilting top keeps younger ones comfortable for drawing and reading.

The desk comes with a movable L-shaped rack. Fit it horizontally for an extra shelf above the desktop, or turn it upright to free the space beneath for longer projects. It lets you change the layout as your child's needs shift through the school years.

The desk is sold on its own, so you can match it with a seat that fits. The KAYA Adjustable Chair rises through four heights to suit the desktop, and the roomier KAYA Adjustable Chair Large suits taller children who need a wider seat.

Wipe the top and drawers with a soft, damp cloth, then dry them off. Skip harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners and heavy moisture, since these can mark the varnish over time. The desk is for indoor use, so keep it out of rain and away from persistent damp.

One minute it is a writing desk for homework and handwriting, the next it tilts up as an easel for painting. Reading sits at an easy angle in between. With drawers, hooks and a magnetic bar close by, it gives your child a tidy corner of their own for study and art.
