Complementing Problem Solvers For Antiques Desks
1 September 2010

I had purchased bells like this in a quaint New England hardware store 24 years ago. I have had so many friends ask where to buy them and was never able to find anything like them….until now. These bells are EXACTLY like my original ones. They have a wonderful, happy sound as soon as my front door is opened. This nice part is I can be anywhere in the house and if anyone opens or tries to open my door, I hear it. They make for an unusual gift as well.
What is the best way to remove scratches from an antique desk?
I antiques desks don’t want to hurt the value any more, the scratches are not deep (just on the surface) but really long. The wood is dark.

This lamp does the trick: it’s nice looking and solidly made and casts a pleasant bright light. It is heavily weighted in its base, so it stands firmly on top of the piano and is not wobbly at all. The slightly high shipping cost is probably due to this weight.
Two minor nits to pick: it doesn’t come with bulbs (it uses two specialty ‘T’ bulbs that you need to go to a hardware store to find), and its switch is on the cord about 1 foot down from the base of the lamp. This means that you can’t put the lamp in the middle of the piano and run the cord behind the piano, because then the switch is unreachable behind the piano. So we run the cord all along the top of the piano and off the edge of it. A switch on the lamp itself would make more sense. Also, I haven’t found this type of bulb in a fluorescent – so you have to burn 80 watts in this thing. But overall, recommended.
This is junk. I am so tired of putting new screws in this desk to keep it from leaning to the right or the left. Yes, the bolts are well tightened, yet it is so cheaply made, they don’t hold the desk straight. The draws get stuck every five minutes. I am going to have to tear this apart to dispose of it so I can get a new desk. Bad, bad quality.
I love the look of this computer desk – especially with the additional hutch added. So, if you are going for looks and don’t plan on using it at all – go for it.
PROS:
Attractive aesthetic features
CONS:
EXTREMELY easy to scratch any of the surfaces
Time consuming to assemble (I did both the hutch and desk at the same time – took 6 hours by my self)
Plastic “locks” on front keyboard drawer broke after 6 weeks of use (they keep the panel with the aesthetic handles up when not in use)
Not ideal for larger computer towers
Difficult to reach back of computer tower
Definitely not a good choice if you have small children who use the computer. Even for frequent adult users, the quality just isn’t there. I rarely regret my purchases, but this one is one I wish I had never ever made. Poor quality to invest your money in. Ah, but then, you get what you pay for. Pity … it looks so nice from a distance.
I have been a customer of amazon for everything I buy on net for a long time but this piece of junk
has made me think that I lucked out
This was the worst purchase, advertisement that its cherry is false and its mainly compressed wood except the table top
the desk is unstable and rips apart despite providing steel support on each side
I dont think it can even stand the weight of the cpu
sorry amazon I got tricked and so are the others
