Interlink Julia Desk with Drawer, Julia

A great idea and ideal for my 'man shed' which I use for an office during the week and to do art projects with my granddaughter when she visits. We can work alongside each other and because it is adjustable we can both work in comfort. When I need it for work it is easily laid flat and my laptop and papers fit nicely and the height set to my needs. It has a smaller footprint than my traditional desk which it is replacing and therefore gives me more space in a limited area. The single draw will hold the essential stationary items but draws will be needed for anything more.Sadly the first desk I received was damaged. The top was split lengthways and needed to be returned (£30 postage and Amazon refunded £3.30). A replacement was sent out immediately and that was in good order.It was easy enough to assemble but the instructions could do with some improvement and clarification. Having said that, any decent DIY person should have no problems. It has a good feel to it as it is wood rather than MDF and that was the main attraction for me.

LOVE this desk. Hubbie is a model maker and now he has this in the lounge - craft workshop ! and has all his gear out on it instead of having to clear away at the end of each day. The table is rounded edges and beautifully made with excellent descriptions of how to.......the desk top is wonderful in size and the groove at the lover portion is perfect for his pencils he always loses. We only have a small flat but our world is taken up with crafting so this is the main workbench cum dining table now and we both think it looks very aesthetically pleasing. The pinewood is thick and robust with a top that pulls up on a ratchet style mechanism and closes back down with a single movement. Excellent product- has improved my hubbies life as a disabled person and now he has a big play area he can work on. Now I'm wondering if I can fit another in just for me hahahaEasy to put together and no problems as hubbie always fine tunes everything he makes. We had no worries over the screw bolts etc- Just a joy from buying to making. Many thanks to interlink for a wonderful creative piece of furniture.

This is a good little desk for the money - it's flexible in how it can be used as it's both height adjustable and the top can be angled or flat. I bought it for my mini art studio at home - I love to draw and this is perfect for me in terms of the amount of room it takes up (hardly any) and the sloped top which enables me to work on pieces at a comfortable angle. My only criticism is that it's a little on the rickety side and the worktop was split at the bottom. I am happy to live with/fix these myself based on the money I paid.

A nice desk which looks good in my sons room.The construction of the desk was a different matter, however. Some of the screws didn't fit properly into the cross members which I had to then drill out. If I'd forced the screws in I would have ruined the desk. Oh and the desk top is slightly "wavy" due to the bits of wood which make up the top being slightly different thickness's. However, as a test I used a ruler to draw a line on a single piece of paper. The line came out straight so I don't regard the wavy nature of the top as a problem.So recommended apart from the caveat about putting it together and the slightly wavy top. Oh yes, the desk has become a lot more expensive since I bought it, so I don't think it is now particularly great value.

I love this desk but I find I bash my shins off the supporting planks underneath, though to be fair.. I think it's more suited for children and they probably don't have that issue.Recommend pre-drilling some holes first (though thinner than the screws of course!)Mechanism for tilt is pretty good too!

Initial order arrived very slowly & incomplete but replaced free of charge within days after contacting Amazon as the other options were chargeable.Multiple uses with the rise and fall plus the option to tilt the desk top. Used most days for sewing, making up jigsaws and wrapping packages etc.Prefer it without the drawer, but that is a personal choice.Solved a problem I had with adjusting the height of the desk without the desk top lifting at the back. fitted a simple metal hook to the underneath side of the desktop and to the framework. Raising and lowering the desk is much easier now.

I paid half the price @ 64 pounds with vat 6 months ago now its now double the price I don't think its worth paying so much money as it is just basic and suites purpose.

The desk is great now it's up but as mentioned in other reviews it arrives in many, many pieces. I took about 3 hours to assemble it. The instructions are clear though.
