Know before you buy
When the tambour closure is fully retracted, you have a workspace measuring 26½ inches wide by 19 inches deep.
The desk provides a knee space opening of 25 inches wide and 24½ inches high. We recommend measuring your chair's arm height to ensure it slides underneath the desk surface comfortably.
Dovetail joinery is a hallmark of high-quality woodworking that interlocks the drawer sides, preventing them from pulling apart over time. This construction method ensures the drawer remains sturdy and functional even with frequent daily use.
The tambour closure is designed for smooth operation, but keeping the tracks free of dust and debris is recommended. An occasional light application of a dry lubricant or wax can help maintain a seamless glide.
To preserve the wood's integrity, avoid placing the desk in direct sunlight or near heat sources that could cause the wood to expand or contract. Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth and use a high-quality wood polish or cleaner specifically formulated for your chosen finish.
