Customers are mixed about the adjustability of the desk. Some mention that it's adjustable for the tilt, but not the height. The angle adjustment is really nice and easy to operate, and it can be angled to different levels. However, some say that the height is a little too low and that the desk is low to the ground without the ability to raise it. The surface has pores, and the framing around it is slightly higher, so they had to sand it down.

"...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..." Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Table, Just Go Ahead And Buy It!
Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2017
This desk is beautiful. I absolutely love it. I bought the 42" wide version and it is the perfect size. I was originally going to buy the 36" size, and I am glad I didn't, it would have been too small limiting the types and size of projects I could work on and not the size drafting table I am used to working on. If you have the space, go for the 42" size, those 6" make all the difference. Amazing quality for the price. I was eyeing a similiar one on RH and it was just too expensive. I hemmed and hawed over ordering this one because of the mixed reviews, but after reading about the excellent customer service the manufacturer gave anyone with problems, I ordered it. I am so glad I did. I should have ordered it years ago when I first saw it on Amazon.com. It was easy to put together, arrived in perfect confition and all parts were there, clearly labeled. For those who say in their reviews that the holes are not drilled all the way through, they are not supposed to be - the screws need some wood to grab onto when putting the desk together. Other people said it was too low to use when tilted all the way down - this is a drafting table, not an easel. If you need an easel to be able to work on a vertical surface, you have to buy an easel, which is a different animal all together. Makes me wonder if those people ever used, worked on or owned a drafting table before. All in all a great purchase. I am thrilled and the desk is beautiful, real wood, not veneer or plastic laminate like some reviews said. This desk will look great in any room in the house. I am planning on buying a side tray that attaches to the desk for my art supplies and a clamp on lamp. I highly recommend this drafting table- go ahead and buy it, you will be glad you did. Love, love, love.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly Recommended, Just Gorgeous, Sturdy and Loved
Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2015
I'm adding photos to show how it looks just out of the box (since there is a lack of those with this product page). I'm very glad I measured my old drafting table top before ordering, because the 42" is practically the same size I'm accustomed to; the 36" would have been too small.

The product in its original/shelf box with a packing slip on it is what I received (another way of say there wasn't another shipping box it was packed in). It was pretty easy to take downstairs to my studio (if you have a carpeted staircase, it's even easier -- guide it with both hands and let gravity help you take it down, slide it across the carpet -- why strain yourself; it's the desk you're keeping, not the box :).

I opened the package and its contents carefully in case I needed it for a return (stuff happens!). I inspected the pieces as I took them out. The only thing that was a slight concern: the upper right corner looked like it met a brick wall a couple of times before it was put in the box (I read on another review of similar damage). Thankfully, that's something I can modify just fine with sand paper and stain; everything else was assembly-ready.

It took about two hours to put together, however, I'm meticulous on what I work on because I want it to last me a very long time, and I enjoyed putting the desk together. I made sure all parts were included before I started working by counting and checking them off with a pencil in the manual. The instructions are all visual (no step-by-step) over three pages, but that's up my learning alley. Afterward, it's very sturdy.

Suggestion: I custom cut a desk mat (Desktex Anti-Slip Polycarbonate Desk Protector, Embossed Surface, 29 x 59 Inches, Clear -- think a chair mat type of plastic, just a few layers thinner; easy to cut with tin snips like this: http://amzn.com/B000R8HSOG ) to protect the table top from all the art I'm going to be doing.

By the way, you don't have to use the holes provided to keep the table angle where you want it. Just make sure to tighten the side screws in to the U brackets enough. (Oh, the U parts stop making noise when you tighten the handles down, so you don't have to worry about hearing those when you work either.)

So here is my experience and some photos to help you decide. I hope you have a great experience and enjoy your new table once you've assembled it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Such a great look. Inspiring.
Reviewed in Canada on August 14, 2021
I bought this for my Architectural drafting & drawing classes. It looks amazing! Has that vintage feel and look and goes really well with my vintage Tsquares and my dad's old briefcase (who was an engineer). This piece reminds me of my dad's so much. It makes me feel inspired to draw up designs.

Although it looks great it is not that sturdy. It wobbles when I erase. That's pretty much my only complaint. It's a great size for first drafting table and in my small townhouse. I love it nonetheless and will purchase matching stool.
