Is this desk tall enough/strong enough for a 5 year old who is 45 pounds and 46 inches tall? -Anna J.

Yes it is. It's tall enough for at least 50" and strong enough for about 48 lbs.

Sorry for the delayed response as I have been on vacation. My daughter loves this set for our grandson and says it will work for a child of the age and size you describe.

I don't know how tall the desk is because it is at my grand-daughter's home. However, it should be just fine for your a tall 3 yr old. My g-daughter is also very tall and turned 3 in Jan.2014. The desk fits her well and she LOVES it.

Yes. you can adjust the height of the desk to several levels... higher or lower I am only 5'3 so yes the desk would work for you. I love it and standing part of my day has made a big difference on how I feel at the end of my day. I love it and would totally recommend it.

Yes! To say this desk is compact, it is very sturdy. Originally I had old style tube monitor which weighed over 50lbs and the desk supported it no problem.

It is pretty high, 29" with the 8 inch mattress that I bought to go with it, so it would be too high for a 5 year old to climb in and out of. However I really love the bed and would highly recommend it, maybe with a little step stool. Good luck!

It's definitely not too high for your average 5 year old. I don't have measurements but bought it for my 4 year old granddaughter and she clambers up and down with no problems-- she loves all the bookshelf space and having her own little world up there.

I would say yes. We bought this desk for our son who was in kindergarten at the time. It fit it perfectly at that point. He is now in first grade and the desk is almost too low/small for him. I would suggest a step larger for a 2nd grader. Our son is also small for his age so this desk may not even work for some first graders.

I cannot get you the dimensions to the desk right now because it is in my daughters room and she is sleeping however I can answer you question regarding being bug enough. My daughter is 12 1/2 and it is a perfect size for her and I'm sure thru high school. Not only is it the perfect size but also eXceptional quality!

No. not really using this desk as a stand up, and I got the 48 x 24. But it is very sturdy, It will not break unless you practice karate chops on it or if you sit on it and weigh +320 lbs. This is not press wood or thin bars. It will last you for a very log time. And if you are buying this for you son/daughter. As they grow up...You can raise the table to there height. So leaning on it, will not be an issue, IMO!

I am 5'11" @ 185 and I wouldn't jump in it. I can sit/lay in it with my 5 year old, but don't think it could take the weight of me jumping around on it. I think the weight limit is around 200lbs. It is perfect for small children, maybe 3-4 at a time. If your children are 10+ years old, this might be a little small for them.

This desk is more appropriate for a child, a teen or a small person. A full size adult will find it somewhat tight. I did not put in the little "storage." The desk is in a guest room and most of my guests are adults, so I left that out to accommodate adult legs better.

Absolutely. I purchased this for my daughter when she was 11 and she's been using it for two years. She says she still loves her desk and expects to use it for at least a couple more years.As always, buying through Amazon was a great experience. One of the small drawers was slightly cracked when it arrived; I called Amazon and we received a replacement drawer two days later.The desk is very well made, especially for the money. It's solid as a rock.

I don't think so. My daughter is about 48 inches and the height works well. Some of her taller friends don't have a problem either (I have even used it before and I am 5'4").

I don't think there's anything you would use this desk for that it couldn't support. My son is almost 100 pounds and he has sat on it. As far as it's weight capacity inside, my son's desk is completely full of texts and is just fine. I hope this helps. We're very happy with this desk.

This desk is still very sturdy and so is the chair. Nothing has changed even the top of the desk opens and shuts the way it first did. Im pretty sure my son is going to get this desk after my daughter has out grown it fully, (she is tall for and 8 year old so she will out grow it soon) if I can find this same desk for her size i'd repurchase in a heart beat. You will like this desk.

Our granddaughter is 7 years old and at least 50 inches tall. It fits her just fine. She's the tallest kid in her first grade class. In fact this size of desk is more suitable for that age and size and gives the kid a sense of pride. It's there workstation and it's a place of their very own. The hidden storage space is very adequate. Fine quality and easy to assemble. Great value! Enjoy!

I love the desk and how it looks. However, I'm 5'4" and there is only about 2" between my legs and the bottom of the desk. An office chair, that rolls, is out of the question. I'm using a low chair from an old dinette set. I've been trying to think of a way to raise the desk about 4" without it looking crappy. If the legs were longer the desk would be perfect. Very sturdy.
