Little Sloane Leaning Desk (Java)

Furniture occasionally needs somebody to lean on, too. In the case of our Little Sloane Leaning Desk, all it needs is a wall. We've taken the unique leaning design of Crate and Barrel's Sloane furniture collection and scaled it down to accommodate your little ones. They save space by taking up less area on the floor, and they secure to the wall for added safety. Buy one as a standalone piece, or pick up multiples to make a custom look of your own. Safety first - Includes tip restraint kit for securing desk to the wall to prevent tipping - Mending hardware to attach multiple units Details, details - Space saving leaning ladder design - Fixed shelf for book storage or display - Desk surface accommodates a laptop - Can stand alone or in multiples - Assembly required - Made in Indonesia Show 'em what you're made of - Solid mahogany with mahogany veneers over low emission engineered wood Stained Java - Solid mahogany with low emission engineered wood Painted White Color options - Stained Java - Painted White - Click here to order Complimentary Swatches Extras!

"I bought this desk for my five year old. He has the smallest room with a little nook that I have not been able to find a desk to fit in until now. It's perfect! Not only in size but he doesn't need all the bells and whistles. However, as my son's needs grow, we can add to this piece if needed. It's beautifully made, I put it together myself in about 10 minutes and looks great in his room."

This Desk Rocks!
"I bought this desk and the coordinating leaning bookcase for my son's bedroom and it is perfect! The assembly instructions were very easy to follow and I had it put together in a flash! The top shelf is a great place to display trophies and there is enough room on the desk to put a small table lamp. This desk is very versatile - it is perfect for a child's room and a teenager's room."

Be Patient
"Well, I'm on my 3rd desk, I still haven't received one that is not damaged.
on the bright side I can see that it should be perfect for a small space. My daughter is looking forward to finally using it. I think it's funny that Land Of Nod is requesting I comment from me knowing that the order is still not complete. It's cheap!

"We bought 2 of these desks and 2 of the matching bookcases to create a wall of learning space for our two third grade boys. The slim open shape of the desk and bookcase lends itself well to their long narrow room. The quality of the wood is very good, nice and solid. I wish the shelves were just a bit deeper, maybe another 4 inches or so. The dark finish draws attention to how infrequently I dust."

Fun work/school space
"My husband and I needed to find desks that could accomodate our needs for homeschooling our 4 and 5 year olds. I wanted something very versatile that our kids could use now but also grow into. We needed something that could last throughout the years, but could also be added to or divided with time and more kids according to our ever-changing needs. We purchased two leaning desks and a leaning bookcase for our "school." Assembly was simple, and the finishes are beautiful (we purchased the dark wood). I like how the storage spaces provided are open - it brings color and creativity to the space, plus we can see all our subjects and learning tools, which is great, b/c out of sight out of mind with little ones usually means exactly that. I wanted to encourage learning and have easy access to their learning things, so having them visible is important, yet they can still get tucked away when we want the space cleaned up. :)"

Great for school work and art!
"We bought three of these for our children (6, 3.5, 3.5) and the set fits perfectly along one wall. Our kindergartener now has her own space to do homework and our preschoolers love to pretend to do work there as well. All love the desks for craft projects too. In a world where they have to share so much, the kids really enjoy having a space of their own. Great purchase!!"

Fun and functional
"I saw a similar shelf set and desk without the bins, but the bins make the set! Love the shelf, can't wait to get the desk. My son has a small room and this is perfect. It will be great to not do homework at the dining room table any more."
