Like German cars, German desks have a certain reputation in the market. I must say, it is well deserved - let's start with the fact that it was the moll company that began producing height-adjustable children's desks back in 1974. Since then, it is precisely this criterion - height adjustment - that has become one of the decisive ones when choosing furniture for schoolchildren. Moll was followed by other manufacturers, and today furniture from Paidi and Kettler is also quite popular in this niche.
Convenience, ergonomics, and the design of “growing” desks are taken into account by parents who want to provide their child with optimal conditions for studying at home. But at the same time big choice commercially available models can confuse many mothers and fathers who simply do not have the time to understand all the intricacies of “Partology”.
For clarity, we suggest highlighting the main parameters that will help you quickly decide whether a given desk is suitable for a particular family. This: age category target audience(depending on the height of the tabletop), size and ability to tilt the tabletop, table top type(whole, separate), materials, appearance desks, and, of course, price category. The presence of accessories is also important, as are awards and medals from independent experts, so we will also try to take these points into account.
On this moment range of school desks from German manufacturers discussed in this review looks like this:
(Kettler): Cool Top, School, Little, Comfort, College Box, Logo Max, Logo Plus, Logo Duo
(Mall): moll Champion, moll Champion Compact, moll Winner, moll Winner Compact, moll Joker
(Paidi): FALKO, JARO, MARCO 2, TABLO
All of the above models are height adjustable: Kettler 51-78 cm (except Logo Duo and Comfort - their height varies from 54 to 78 cm), all moll models have a standard range of 53-82 cm, Paidi MARCO 2 and TABLO are height adjustable 53-79 cm, while Paidi FALKO and JARO are 54-76 cm. Thus, for a child of average height and any school age Any of the above-mentioned models will do, and the desk will serve him from first to last grade. According to reviews from German parents, all these desks are very solid, stable and reliable, proven over years of almost daily use.
All models have an inclined tabletop with an inclination angle from 0 to 18-22 degrees; moll Champion, moll Champion Compact, Kettler Comfort, Kettler Logo Duo, Paidi MARCO 2 (130 cm) and Paidi JARO models have separate tabletops, that is, one part rises , and the other remains motionless.
Not all schoolchildren have their own study room - very often the free space in the apartment is limited, or, conversely, one long desk is purchased for two schoolchildren. Advice - decide on the length of the tabletop, based on your needs and available space, this will narrow down your search.
As for design, manufacturers try not to distract attention from functionality. The desks are made either in natural colors that are pleasant to the eye (oak, maple, beech, spruce, birch), or in white with unobtrusive color accents. This makes it easy to combine the newly purchased desk with existing furniture in the children's room.
The tabletop material is high-quality laminated chipboard, approved for use in the production of children's furniture (and in Germany everything is strict about this!), and the frames, guides and table legs are made of durable steel. Smooth lines, the absence of sharp corners and gaps between moving parts increase operational safety.
Accessories vary slightly from manufacturer to manufacturer. For example, for the moll Champion model, a drawer under the tabletop needs to be purchased separately, but a folding book stand, a cable channel, a magnetic ruler-limiter, a side hook for a school backpack and replaceable decorative elements 8 colors are included. Manufacturers offer a line of related products, coordinated in style and color scheme- shelves, bedside tables, tabletop extenders and so on, so that it will be possible to develop individual project workplace. And if you invite the future owner or owner of the desk to participate in the selection...
Awards and achievements? For example, the moll Champion desk received the super prestigious Red Dot Design Awards in 2012, the Kettler company has a large number of patents and developments in the production of orthopedic furniture, and the Paidi brand has been synonymous with children's furniture of the highest quality for more than 80 years.
Time to ask about the price of the issue. Let’s face it, it’s more expensive than domestic or Chinese analogues, but... Drawing an analogy with the auto industry again - if you value a long uninterrupted operation, lack of need for frequent maintenance and stylish appearance, then a desk from one of the German manufacturers is your choice!
Before identifying the advantages of KETTLER desks, it should be noted that that all school furniture is made in Germany, a factory that has 66 years of impeccable work on the international market.
The main advantages of KETTLER desks
MADE IN GERMANY
Every element, every detail is made in Germany. Steel frame is produced by KETTLER at its plant in Werl. He casts the plastic elements at his plant in Ense Parsit. Chipboard with the highest quality indicator “Blue Angel” is purchased from a German manufacturer.
66 years of production experience
The factory has been run by the KETTLER family for 66 years. Since 2005, after the death of Hines Kettler, his daughter has been in charge of production.
Accessories Hettich (Germany)
Much attention is paid to fittings, because... she happens to be link and carries high loads. When producing tables, we use fittings of the highest quality and exceptional design from the Hettich brand, which has proven itself excellent in more than 100 countries around the world.
The quality of chipboard is marked with the Blue Angel quality certificate
This quality certificate is a sign for environmentally friendly goods and services in the world. It confirms that our products do not contain harmful components and are safe for health. The most environmentally friendly chipboard is considered to be chipboard with the “Blue Angel” marking, which is placed only on best chipboard, with the minimum content of resins, formaldehydes, phthalates, without which furniture production is impossible.
Anti-vandal coating of countertops
A special coating using HPL technology allows children to draw, glue, sculpt and engage in other creative activities without fear of damaging or staining the desk top. KETTLER countertops are extremely resistant to damage and scratches and can be easily cleaned with a regular damp cloth.
Desks grow with children from 3 to... years old
KETTLER desks have the most reliable system desk height adjustment. By rearranging the stops, parents can easily change the height of the desk to the desired level. Thus, a child over 3 years old with a height of 90 cm or an adult with a height of over two meters can comfortably fit at the desk.
Service life is unlimited
During sales of desks in Russia and Europe, the company office did not receive a single request for after-sales service. The high quality of the products allows us to say that this desk can be used for many years. With careful care, the desk will be inherited. as a subject in which parents and grandparents gained knowledge and made their first successes.
Built-in casters in table legs
Such little things are always pleasing, especially if such little things continue to work throughout the entire period of use. Rollers on the front of the legs will allow you to easily free up space for cleaning the children's room, or will help you quickly move the desk... for example, to the window.
Protection of children's fingers (larger gaps)
An important point is safety. KETTLER has extensive experience in the production of goods for children: children's transport (scooters, bicycles, pedal cars), outdoor playgrounds, goods for newborns, children's furniture. And the main indicator - safety - has always been respected. In addition, in Europe there are special requirements for the production of children's products. and participation in the full production cycle allows factory specialists to control quality at all stages of the production process.
Maintaining correct posture during exercise
Compliance with the laws of ergonomics in the production of orthopedic furniture is the key to correct and healthy posture in the future. In young children, posture is just beginning to form, and at the moment of strengthening it it is useful to use the right furniture. KETTLER has been published many times in medical journals devoted to orthopedic issues. Our desks and chairs can be found in various educational institutions, public and private schools, kindergartens.
Preserving vision
The correct tilt of the tabletop when writing, reading and creativity allows you to maintain children's vision spicy. When reading, for correct posture, the tabletop should be at an angle of 30°; it is this tilt that practically eliminates the occurrence of pain in the back of the head and back. When writing, the recommended tilt of the tabletop is 15°. In this position, your posture remains straight and your wrists rest comfortably on the table. For drawing, sculpting or drawing, the optimal tilt angle should be 0-5°.
Protection against self-regulation
Children's joy at the sight of a new table knows no bounds. Child yours free time tries to spend it at the desk or next to it. He studies his new table with great curiosity, tries on the briefcase, pulls out the drawer, climbs under the desk and examines the device with the fastidiousness of a seasoned engineer. Make it safe to use - the main task technologists. Therefore, along with other safety elements, clamps were invented to protect against children's height adjustments of the desk. Only under parental control can children themselves set the height of the table to suit their height.
Steel frame can withstand enormous loads
home distinctive feature desks, this is its basis - the frame structure. Those. the entire existing load during the entire period of use falls on the steel skeleton of the desk. It's like comparing a frame SUV with a regular car assembled from hundreds of parts. Thanks to this design, the table can withstand enormous loads and can serve faithfully for decades. I would like to note that the steel frame is completely manufactured at the KETTLER factory, each element is made using German equipment and under the control of German specialists.
Wide range of colors
To satisfy the most demanding customers, the KETTLER design bureau develops models that meet modern trends. The appearance of the desks represents a combination of unique technological solutions and laconic design, plus a combination of popular colors used by manufacturers in the manufacture of children's rooms.
Our desks are ready to serve you for more than 100 years. If you need high-quality and reliable school furniture - welcome to KETTLER!
I would like to end the description of children's orthopedic furniture with the words of the founder of the factory, Hines Kettler: “I am always ready to invest an extra cent in every detail, just to get a product of one hundred percent quality.”
Desk
It is difficult to overestimate the importance of high-quality children's furniture. After all, it is for transformable desk the child spends most of the day, so it should be comfortable, convenient and safe for his health. Why exactly children's desk , but not writing children's table ? According to pediatricians, rigid fixation of the seat creates optimal conditions for the child’s posture. This effect is achieved because the baby, not being able to move the chair back, is forced to maintain correct posture when writing. That's why for junior school It is imperative to buy desks, not tables, so that the child strengthens the habit of sitting correctly. Modern school desks amaze with the variety of species. First of all, classic stationary desks are in great demand. These are what most people buy educational institutions. This model has a comfortable, high-quality tabletop, special shelves for books and a place where you can hang your bag. More new model — transformable desk . This is an improved type of school furniture; such a workplace can be customized individually for a specific child. The movable tabletop makes it possible to perfectly select desired angle tilt, and the movable back of the chair allows you to adjust the seat depth. Also available children's desks with special orthopedic benches. Orthopedic furniture is a new development that appeared quite recently, but Russian consumers have already appreciated it.
When choosing children's furniture, you should never focus only on the price and appearance of the product. In order not to risk the health of your child, you should always pay attention to the manufacturer. The Kettler company is German company European level, which has proven itself in many countries around the world. Products of this trademark- always impeccable quality and reasonable prices. It was this fact that became fundamental during the company’s promotion to Russian market, because only in Kettler brand stores you can purchase high-quality products for children at affordable prices. Separately, it is worth noting the environmental friendliness of Kettler products. Buying school desks for children , you can be completely sure that this product is absolutely safe.

What parameters are used to select a table/desk for a schoolchild?
Choosing one like children's table and chair , you should pay attention to such parameters as the age and height of the child. It is best if your child participates in the purchasing process. First of all, there is an educational moment in this: at a certain period of time, the child should be taught to accept independent decisions. The second aspect is more practical reasons - any children's furniture should be selected individually, which means it needs to be “tried on” before purchasing. If you purchase a classic non-adjustable desk option, you need to pay close attention to the height of the table and chair. The height of the tabletop should be such that it reaches the child’s chest. If the table is lower, the baby will slouch, which can negatively affect its posture. A table top that is too high is also undesirable; in this case, it will simply be uncomfortable for the child to work at such a table.
The same goes for height. A chair or bench in a desk should be of such a size that its little owner sits comfortably and feels comfortable. The student’s knees should form an angle of 90 degrees. Only with this ratio can you be sure that the load on the child’s spine is distributed evenly and nothing threatens his health.
School desks and adjustable desks
For older children of school age there are special adjustable desks for home . Their manufacturing technology is such that it allows you to subsequently adjust the height of the tabletop and seat. Thus home desk “grows” together with its little owner. In addition, adjustable desks allow you to change the tilt of the table, which increases the comfort of using this item and makes it possible to choose the viewing angle that is optimal for the child.
The once ordinary desks for schoolchildren are also equipped with all kinds of devices. A modern transformable children's desk for schoolchildren has special drawers for stationery, a place where you can hang a school bag and even a retractable ruler. We should also not forget that today desk should also act as a place for a computer. The world dictates its terms, and manufacturers of furniture for children have to come to terms with it! The Kettler company, as always, keeps its finger on the pulse of innovative developments. Moreover, she herself is a “trendsetter” in this product market. Therefore, desks for schoolchildren from Kettler are equipped with everything necessary for full-fledged studies.
Transformable desks for children's rooms
Don't forget that learning is not limited to schoolwork. At home, children also spend quite a lot of time at the desk. What furniture should you buy for a children's room? Perfect fit transformable desks. This is a type of adjustable desk that can be used by children of all ages. different ages. And this is the main advantage of transformers! If at school a child, moving from class to class, sits on furniture commensurate with his age and height, then it will be quite expensive for parents to change the furniture in the children's room every couple of years. That is why the transforming desk perfect option For home use. Having purchased it once, when the child goes to school, you can periodically adjust its parameters, adjusting it to suit your grown child.
Of course, such furniture will last a long time only if it is made from materials High Quality and in compliance with all standards. Kettler children's furniture can be attributed to this category. Desks for schoolchildren from Kettler are produced using various materials. The traditional Kettler line includes wooden models. This is a natural, time-tested material that manufacturers use to make both classic desks and their more modern analogues. What's good about wood? It is durable, environmentally friendly, products made from it can fit into any interior. These desks are in perfect harmony with the rest of the furniture in the children's room, pleasant to the touch and easy to use. But as practice has shown, parents prefer to choose wooden furniture, but children love the brighter and more elegant plastic models from Kettler. Multi-colored, bright, saturated shades of tables and desks bring an indescribable atmosphere of positivity and joy to the children's room. Children love these tables and chairs and can spend hours working, playing or studying at them.
Desk for a child
Choosing a children's table for a first-grader is more or less simple, but teenage children are much more demanding customers. They are sometimes much more difficult to please than their parents. That's why desk for child adolescence should be chosen only with his direct participation. Most often, young boys and girls prefer a desk as their own workplace, which they also use as a computer desk. Due to the heavy academic load in high school, it makes sense for a teenager to purchase his own home office. This is unique furniture designed to equip a children's room.

Children who spend most of the day sitting at a desk and computer often develop scoliosis, congestive processes in the muscles, which can cause them to suffer from pain and cramps.
