Review: Excellent drafting table - Beautifully crafted piece of furniture. Solid stable construction yet very easy to assemble. Was going to stick it in a corner. It looks so good, however, that it's in the living room as a conversation piece. Hard to belive it's not old as it's put together and designed classically. Glad I bought this drafting table. It brings me back to the industrial drafting course I talked myself I to waaaay back in high school.
Review: Awesome spacious work desk. - I purchased 42 inch wide version of this desk as it was one of the nicest looking in that size while also less expensive than others on desertcart. Assembly - Took me a little over an hour to complete, but was pretty simple from a series of 3 exploded view panels in the instructions. It seemed to me that so long as you use the right screws or dowels, which are pretty clearly labeled in separate bags and noted in the instructions, it would be hard to put this desk together incorrectly or in more than one way. The instructions say that the only additional tool you need is a Phillips head screwdriver as a small hex key/allen wrench is included in one of the parts bags. However, driving some of the screws into the base was made easier using our electric drill. You might also want to have a flathead screwdriver on hand for a certain step of the process, but I got by without one. Other reviewers mention that holes were missing, but I did not find any. Most of the major part attachments were done with bolts, not screws, and pilot holes were predrilled for the joins that required screws (because screws generally actually bite into wood, so if you drilled a full hole they'd have nothing to grip onto.) Usage - The desk is quite spacious (again, I am using the 42 inch version) and feels pretty solid considering that it is adjustable in angle and it has two legs, not four. I personally like that it is designed with two legs, as that means that if I need to I can tilt it to the about 90 degree mark and take up less space when not in use. In this "folded" position having two legs also means that the table is very easy to carry between rooms as you can carry it by the uppermost crossbar. I haven't weighed the desk, but it feels like it's around 30-35 pounds, perhaps a little more. If you plan on using the desk for technical drafting, there are no bumps or anything else that might interfere with the use of a T-square along the sides of the desk. I would advise against using the pencil bar at the front of the desk for aligning a sheet of paper horizontally with reliable accuracy, because the pencil bar does not sit at a perfect horizontal along its entire length when compared against my 42 inch T-square. Angle adjustment: The desk is, again, stable when the adjustment knobs are just slightly snug and the table adjusts in angle easily enough but with enough friction that it doesn't seem like it will swing free if you have a little bit of weight on it during the adjustment. Perhaps it might have been nice to have the pins that sprung into the holes along the metal wheels. As it is the only real way to tell if you're absolutely in one of the angle holes is if the knobs spin down all the way. If you can't tell by the picture, those holes are what determine what angles the desk can be adjusted to with the most stability. You could probably tighten down the knobs halfway between those holes, but you might damage or dent the metal at that point (I haven't tried, and the angles available seem fine.) Comment on height of the desk: I am 6 feet tall, and when the table angle is flat the desk is perhaps an inch or two below the height of my waistline. This means that for me it should be comfortable enough to use as a standing desk for the occasional project that requires that. The crossbars at the base of the desk serve as a sort of foot rest, which is nice. Build quality - The coloring of the wood stain seems even, though one or two corners look like they might have been made with darker wood or with a little extra stain (not very noticeable. All of the edges seem straight and well sanded. And, for the third time, the desk feels solid when I put some of my weight on it. Overall - I think I will very much enjoy using this desk for my Industrial Design projects as well as my personal projects. I have envied the desks on campus with their ample workspace, and now I have one of my own that looks very nice and didn't cost a fortune compared to the other options I've seen on desertcart and a nearby art store's website.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Heirloom worthy. Beautiful, well made, easy to use, perfect height, easy to build. Love it!
*by R***E on March 11, 2025*

I love this drafting table. Initially I was on the fence about this one versus a similar one from a different brand, because this one didn't have the adjustable leg height. But you really don't need that at all. I'm so glad I went with this one. I'm an artist and love all the room I have. I use masking tape to hold reference pictures and the piece I'm working on with no problems. I love the bottom pencil holder. Just the right size. This table is so beautiful and well made. My husband and I had it built in under 30 minutes. It is easy to move around. Super easy to change the angle by myself. Love that it can go 90 degrees for storage or room. I bought the matching stool which is very comfortable and well made. It is easy to adjust the height to this table and is seriously a must buy if you get this table. It was also easy to build. I will have this table for the rest of my life and it will make a great heirloom for my artist daughter some day. Best purchase I've made in a very long time! They shipped it with excellent protection. It arrived unscathed.
