All families with children sooner or later face a problem: where will the child learn the lessons? We’ll put him at his father’s desk - he barely peeks out from behind the countertop, and when he starts to write, he bends to the side and sits, earning scoliosis. The kitchen table is lower, but there is a risk of dirtying notebooks. Yes, and teach a child to prepare lessons at the kitchen table, then? knowingly show him that study is something frivolous and unimportant. Where to seat the child so that it is convenient and interesting for him to study? The growing Posture desk is useful here.
Requirements for home desks
Home desks for children should be:
- comfortable, orthopedic;
- high-quality, made from environmentally friendly materials;
- durable, that is, "growing" with the children;
- beautiful;
- inexpensive.
Buying quality furniture for students is easy. Her choice is wide enough. But the price often “bites”, exceeding 25 thousand rubles. Therefore, many parents are looking for budget options. Perhaps they are not as bright and high-quality as expensive imported models, but quite reliable and convenient.
Stamps
Among brands, inexpensive desks are called “Indigo”, “Posture”, “Astek”, “Ikea”, “Smile”, “Evolife”, “Demi”, “Libao”, “IQ”.
The cheapest Indigo tables. But they are very simple, no design or convenience. But the price is a little more than 2 thousand rubles.
More expensive, but also of higher quality, furniture "Demi". They create furniture of an interesting and diverse design. A table without a box will cost about 9 thousand rubles, and with a set of boxes - more than 14 thousand rubles.
Furniture "Astek" in quality and design is similar to "Demi", but cheaper.
Small Libao can be bought for 3.5 thousand rubles. It is distinguished by plastic countertops and the presence of a compartment for books.
Interesting and stylish furniture "IQ" and the Chinese manufacturer "Evolife". Plastic structural elements have a bright coloring.
Material
Natural wood furniture is environmentally friendly, but expensive (Shkolyarik can be bought for more than 13 thousand rubles). Therefore, for budget models, wood-based materials are used. This is permissible. It is only necessary that they comply with existing standards.

The height of the school desk is adjustable from 52 to 82 cm. And children and teenagers from 115 to 185 cm tall can sit behind it.
Manufacturers do not stand still. New models are constantly being developed and the "Posture" desk is being improved
Manufacturer
The transformer desk is supplied by the Moscow company Kvorus, and it is manufactured by the Vital furniture factory, which is part of Rosmetall LLC.
The Quorus company was established at the end of the last century. Since 2008, she has been the representative of the company Rosmetall LLC, which produces and supplies school and preschool furniture in Moscow and many regions. These are not only desks of different configurations. There are several types of chairs, from simple to computer, various bedside tables and pencil cases for books and other educational supplies.
Why is a serious enterprise engaged in the production of such, at first glance, not very important products, such as the Osanka desk. The manufacturer from Rosmetall explains this by the fact that they understand how important it is to give children the opportunity to grow up healthy. After all, the school desk must meet many requirements. It must be safe, that is, made of high-quality material, including metal. Furniture "Posture" complies with GOST 5995-93 and 22046-02.
When developing a table, you need to make a lot of design decisions. This is the size, and the distance from the child’s eyes to the countertop, and its angle of inclination to perform various educational tasks. Therefore, only specialists should design it.
They produce furniture using modern equipment of the plant using innovative technologies. All metal elements are covered with a special tool that allows you to permanently preserve the appearance of the furniture. A shockproof edge made of ABS, 2 mm thick at the ends, protects furniture and children from bumps and injuries.
Also take into account the optimal stiffness of the furniture. It should not be too soft, but it should be comfortable to sit behind it. No wonder the furniture is called "Posture."
All models of "Posture" desks have patents and all the necessary documentation.
Now there are many fake Osanka desks that do not meet quality standards. Therefore, the site of LLC Rosmetall contains information about manufacturers and suppliers.
Security
The school desk-transformer "Posture" is quite light. This allows the child to move her to the right place. But here lies the danger of injury. Manufacturers warn parents, and they must explain to children that it’s dangerous to get on a desk or cabinet. After all, having light weight, they can tip over and injure the child.
The manufacturer has set a warranty on the desks for 5 years. But consumer reviews say that one such desk is usually enough for the entire time of school.
But after all, children grow up, and they need to buy a model higher. It turns out that "Posture" is a school desk that grows with a child. By turning the special locks, you can raise the countertop by the desired number of centimeters. And in order not to do this blindly, on the desk leg there is a special scale indicating the estimated age of the child.
Transformations
In order to use the desk was convenient, it must be transformed in various directions. The table top of such desks is tilted using a special mechanism in 13 stages. As a result, it can change the angle of inclination up to 55 degrees. In the extreme position, the Posture transformer is used as an easel at the school desk. User reviews indicate that children really like to draw at such a table.
This is not all the transformations that can be made with a desk. Shelves can be installed left or right.
Price policy
Posture is a relatively inexpensive desk. Customer reviews say that it is almost two and a half times cheaper than a similar desk from "Demi". But the manufacturer and suppliers also offer a flexible discount system for regular and wholesale customers. In addition, furniture can be purchased in installments at half the price. It is provided for a period of 3 months to six months. Only the "Posture-Mini" desk is not on sale in installments.
Reviews
Parents like the growing Posture desk. Reviews say that it helps children avoid scoliosis or get rid of its manifestations. They say that the school desk is easily transformed. They also like the fact that it is comfortable, does not take up much space.
I like the children of the "Posture" desk. Reviews say that they are happy to do it, doing lessons or playing. They say that the desk can be equipped with a book holder and a net for a bag. But you need to buy them separately.
It also has the disadvantages of the "Posture" desk. Reviews indicate that it would not hurt to equip the table with a side, into which all objects sliding in an inclined position will fall.
Some wholesale buyers complain about suppliers that the desks did not deliver for a long time. There are no complaints about the quality of the furniture itself.
