Thanks, but actually looking for something new. Just want something a little better quality and more durable than Ikea but can't seem to find anything. Lots of antique stuff, but not as practical. Thanks.

Actually, I got a very nice desk from Ikea. Decent drawer space - 1 can be used for files and a space to put your CPU if you want. Also, the backside of the desk is finished in such a way that that side can face out and not look bad. For an extra $50 I got a piece of glass to fit on the top as well.

Never heard of this brand.
I just get adult size tables and chairs because they grow out too fast, waste of money to buy kids sizes.
