Flash Furniture FD-DESK-GG Student Desk with Open Front Metal Book Box, Black

I’m very pleased with this Flash Furniture student desk. It’s sturdy, well-built, and has a clean, modern look that fits perfectly in my daughter’s study area. The open front metal book box provides extra storage space for her textbooks and notebooks, keeping everything neat and organised. My daughter really enjoys studying at this desk — it gives her plenty of room to spread out her books and focus comfortably. A great purchase for any student’s room or home study corner!

Tuve que devolverlo porque las tuercas no encajaban. El material en si está muy bien y lo compraría pero no me fío que me llegue mal

I received my table today, assembled it, and am so happy with it. I bought it for my IBM Selectric III typewriter, which weighs 48 pounds and measures 22” x 15” x 7”. There are a few images with this review that show how well the typewriter fits on the table. I can also keep my manuals, font elements (golf balls), and ribbons in the storage area—score! The video I attached is me shaking the table to demonstrate how solidly it’s built. I’m confident that it won’t tip over and damage the typewriter or injure someone. I also tried to show how my legs fit under the table. I’m 5’6” tall, weigh 225#, and have thick legs. There is a 4” space between the tops of my legs and the bottom of the table, and 3” on each side of my legs. I can lean my legs against the table legs comfortably also. So I feel there would be plenty of room for average-size adult legs to fit under the table. It is on the tallest leg extension in the images and video. It didn’t come with wheels/casters, and there isn’t an easy way to retrofit them. The bottom of the feet have a nylon disc built in, which helps the table move across smooth surfaces. With the heavy typewriter it “chatters” as it moves; we’re not talking Foosball here. But I won’t be moving it far or often. I could research a different material for the bottom (e.g. felt furniture “moving” pads), or knit little “socks” for each leg if I find myself sliding the table around a lot. I gave the table five stars all around. Just make sure you study the way the legs are supposed to attach. I didn’t look at the diagram, and they are not labeled, so I had to disassemble the table and switch the location of the legs (there are only two). If I wasn’t picky I probably wouldn’t have noticed. It also helps to have a friend hold the legs in position as you feed the screws through the pre-drilled holes during assembly; or you can use a pillow to prop them in place. This table is sturdy and it’s was worth the extra time it took to put it together. It will last the rest of my lifetime. The table has a mid-century aesthetic, so it’s perfect for my typewriter. It’s also much more sturdy than the traditional typewriter table I had a long time ago (metal with a drop-leaf on each side). However, there isn’t any room for a copy easel or reference material for my typing. I’ll need to position anything like that on a different surface. I highly recommend this little table for a typewriter, sewing machine, or other type of craft use.

Great desk to work on

Solid piece of furniture. My child loves it for homeschooling.

Sturdy, and easy to put together. Looks great in the classroom and had no missing parts. Size was perfect, and material is nice.
