Product Details
The Marco Apex Series Trapezoid Student Desk (38-2284-MA) is designed to withstand the wear and tear of classrooms. It features a height-adjustable frame that goes from 21" to 30" in 1-inch increments, allowing you to customize it for different age groups or needs. The 1-1/8" thick particleboard top is laminated with a scratch-resistant melamine finish, making it ideal for busy learning environments.
This space-saving desk measures only 36" x 23", maximizing classroom space without compromising functionality. The sturdy steel legs ensure stability, and the PVC edge banding protects the desk from chips and dents. For additional organization, a book box, casters, and backpack hook can be purchased separately. Marco Group backs this desk with a 10-year warranty for your peace of mind.

The Apex offers a wider 36 by 23 inch top and adjusts from 21 to 30 inches, while the Premier is 32 by 22 with a 21 to 31 inch range. Both share the same melamine surface, PVC edge, USA construction, and 10 year manufacturer warranty coverage. Choose by top size and height range needed.
-
Marco rates the Apex for second grade through adult. The one inch height increments let schools match published ergonomic seat and surface guidelines precisely, so the same desk model works in an elementary pod, a middle school science room, or an adult education classroom. One model simplifies purchasing across entire school districts.
-
Yes. Casters, a book box, and a backpack hook are each sold separately, so schools add mobility and storage only where teaching styles call for it. Rooms that reconfigure daily typically add casters, while departmental classrooms benefit most from book boxes and hooks. Add accessories now or later as classroom needs change.
-
Desks ship flat with legs detached, and assembly takes just a few minutes per unit with basic tools. Set each leg to the desired height during assembly, check the glides, and the desk is classroom ready. A full room set typically comes together in an afternoon. Most schools finish setup the same day desks arrive.
