* Complete creativity center for kids * Hinged desktop with overhead lamp * Lots of compartments for coloring books, paper, markers and more * Ages 3 yrs. and up * Lamp uses 4 AA batteries (not included) * For 1 Person * Batteries Required (Sold Separately): 4 AA Batteries If your budding artist has a tendency to leave paper, paints, markers, and other art supplies all over the place, this is a great way to encourage some organizational skills while letting your child know you support their creativity. The Art Master Activity Desk is made of super-sturdy molded plastic and has a white fiberboard drawing surface that measures 20 by 11 inches and hinges up to reveal three separate storage spaces. There are molded-in compartments for crayons, markers, and paintbrushes, and two side compartments to hold books, pads of paper, and other art supplies. There's even a built-in overhead lamp that can be powered by batteries or plugged directly into the wall (using the included DC six-volt adapter). A bright red top tray holds markers, glue, and other craft items. Complete with its own extra-sturdy desk chair in bright red plastic, this desk is ready to transform any corner of the room into a full studio for arts and crafts projects. --John Longenbaugh -- Editorial Review A cool creativity center for your pint-sized Picasso, the Art Master from Step 2 has oodles of handy compartments and a big, flat work surface with an overhead lamp. Two deep, molded-in side compartments keep books and tablets within reach. A raised shelf with lots of storage spaces keeps crayons, markers and other art accessories organized. The hinged desktop opens for work and closes to tidy up. Requires a hammer and Phillips screwdriver for adult assembly. Lamp uses 4 AA batteries (not included). Ages 3 and up. Made in USA. You Now Need A Drill! -- You need a power drill to put this desk together now. I called Step 2 because I thought they forgot to pre-drill the holes. They informed me that now they do not pre-drill anymore. You have to do it yourself. What a pain. I had to wait for my husband and wait for the battery in the drill to be charged! Bad move, Step 2. Poor Shipping Alternatives -- This item could not be shipped directly to the USVI so I had it shipped to my house in Ct and then shipped it to USVI. The total cost for both shipments was over 150, well in excess of the cost of the product. I think there should be a shipping alternative to the USVI It'S Ok. **Not A 5 Star Toy** -- Do not get me wrong, it is spacious and durable. However, I don't see the 5 start rating. The light is so dim that it lights up practically nothing. Just there for show really. The desk is very bulky and takes us lots of space. We are in an apartment, so the size was bigger than I expected. The kids really just scribble all over the desk and use it as a ladder more than anything. My children are 2 and 3 and a half, neither one really took to the desk. They still prefer to do the arts and crafts on the dining room table. At IKEA a great option was available for half this price. **We hope they use it more as they grow older. Wouldn'T Take It Back -- I do love this desk I bought it for my just turned 4 year old for Christmas he loves it, it has tons of room and space for all of his little art supplies. The one thing I do not like is that assembling the desk you really need a power drill just to get the nails and screws into place, to properly put it together. But I wouldn't take it back it is great Step 2 Company Customer Service -- My son got the art master activity desk for christmas. When we opened the box, I initially thought it was odd that it came with no instructions. But it was so easy to snap together that I didn't really think much of it. Then I realized that it was also missing the orange shelf that sits on top (the part with the light attached to it). My first thought was that there was no way I was going to pack this thing up and ship it back to Amazon. So I went on the step2.com website where there is an 800 number to call for customer service. The Customer Service rep I spoke with was AMAZING. She immediately appologized for the error, took down my contact information and is shipping the missing piece to my home. I am so impressed with this experience. The desk itself is fantastic. Really easy to put together. Lots of little holes and grooves to store art supplies. 2 cubbys along the floor to store coloring books and papers. My son LOVES this desk and loves to organize all his crayons and markers. there is also a little cup holder where we store a small cup of water for water color painting. Everything has it's neat little storage place and it is so easy to sit down and do an art project without the messy clean up. We set the desk up in our office right next to my desk, so when mommy or daddy have to work, our son can "work" right beside us. Can't wait for the shelf to arrive!
