Expert Reviews


What reviewers liked

Having a large corkboard board, five shelves onto the hutch and 2 slots at the desk, your child will have a lot of space to keep everything organized and accessible.
This particular product comprises a white laminated surface and it is crafted from wood. This set comes with a hutch, desk, and chair. It can be great for the children room especially because the color of the furniture is white.
There’s enough space to set up a laptop and store a few books and supplies, and the corkboard is handy for pictures and timetables.
It has five cubbies for storing books, art paper, notebooks, and more, and also has a corkboard where they can pin important notes and pictures.
