Who is an adjustable table suitable for and how to choose the right one?

Children grow up so fast - when arranging their room, it is worth remembering this and choosing practical and economical solutions that will reduce the family budget to a lesser extent. Some furniture that is a must in a student's room, such as a desk or a swivel chair, needs to be finely adjusted to give the child maximum comfort when doing homework. Luckily, you can find adjustable furniture on the market that doesn't need to be replaced every few years as the child grows up, but only adapted to their current needs. How to choose the best, durable and practical model? Find out what you need to know about adjustable tables.

When choosing furniture for a children's room, you need to think for the future - otherwise, after two or three years, you may need to replace the equipment. Children grow out of furniture the same way they grow out of clothes. However, if in the case of clothes it is impossible to protect yourself from it - buying clothes that are too large does not make sense, then in the context of a desk it is possible. It is enough to purchase a model with an adjustable tabletop.

In addition, it is a great environmental solution that also works for the benefit of our planet! Among the adjustable furniture, tables are among the leaders.

Adjustable table - how does it work?

The Adjustable Desk is a solution used at home, as well as in schools and other places where classes are held with children. Thanks to him, you can adjust the height of the table top to the height of the child who is currently sitting at the desk. Such models are increasingly used in everyday work, including by adults. We can find them in home offices, in common areas in office buildings, and anywhere employees spend long hours in front of computer screens.

Regulation can be manual or electric. You can freely change the height of the tabletop (by setting the length of the legs) and its angle of inclination. It is good to equip a children's room with a model with both options, so you can adjust the location of the countertop not only for the height of the child, but also for the current activity. The tilt table will be especially useful when the user of the table often draws or engages in various types of manual work that requires precision. In this case, it is worth putting an adjustable drafting table.

For maximum comfort, choose a table with electric height adjustment. This is a solution that allows you to quickly and smoothly change the height without the use of force. Just press the corresponding button and the mechanism will start by itself. This is a practical convenience that will be appreciated by both large and small owners of such a piece of furniture.  

What should I pay attention to when choosing an adjustable table?

1. Height range

Adjustment ranges can vary considerably depending on the specific model. If you are looking for a versatile desk that will serve your child from the first grade of elementary school through their teens, look for a minimum adjustment range of 30 cm. When aged, the tabletop rises up, reaching a height of even 50-55 cm. Keep this in mind when making your choice. A wide range of height adjustments is also an important aspect when an adult will use the table. Eight long hours spent in a sitting position negatively affect the well-being and condition of the joints and spine. When choosing an adjustable table, you can choose whether you want to work at the moment sitting on a chair, rubber ball or standing at the table.  

2. Regulatory options

If you are looking for a table with maximum functionality, choose the one with both height and tilt adjustment. Thanks to this, you can count on greater freedom in adjusting the position of the table according to the actions at the moment.

3. Execution material

Natural wood is much stronger than thin plywood, which is often used as an alternative. If you want a desk that will serve you or your child for years to come while still being aesthetically pleasing, choose a wood option such as damage-resistant pine. A table with a solid board covered with scratch-resistant laminate would also be a good choice. They can be easily cleaned with a damp cloth, without the use of strong detergents.

In the case of adjustment mechanisms, the best choice would be a metal that does not wear as much as other materials. Thanks to this, even after many years the mechanism will work without problems.

4. Safety shelf

In the case of a folding tabletop, you should pay attention to the presence of a safe shelf, thanks to which objects on the table will not slide off its surface.

Who is a tilt-top table suitable for?

An ergonomic adjustable desk is a good solution for every student. Thanks to comfortable working conditions, he will be able to do homework, prepare artwork, read and write, while maintaining the proper mood.

Using the tabletop tilt adjustment feature is especially useful for people who manually work on all sorts of technical, architectural or engineering projects. The best choice for them is a special drafting table equipped with additional accessories such as rulers or a practical setting memory function.

The drafting table is also suitable for young artists. This is a great alternative to an easel, although in this case the maximum angle of tilt adjustment should be really large. Thanks to this, the draftsmen have better control over the entire work, because its perspective is not distorted.

Is it good to use a slanted table top?

Definitely yes! Sitting at a desk, looking at a laptop screen, studying or reading a book, we often adopt unnatural postures, lowering our necks and rounding our backs. This can lead to pain in various parts of the spine, as well as headaches and even migraines. In the long run, this can lead to degeneration. By adjusting the angle and height of the tabletop, this can be easily avoided by choosing the settings for the type of activity.
