Benefits of the Virco 72LB Student Desk

The Virco 72LB is a go-to desk for schools needing dependable, everyday furniture. Designed with a high-pressure laminate top and steel frame, it stands up to daily classroom demands. The rectangular top offers plenty of space for books, papers, and laptops. Smooth edges prevent discomfort during long study sessions, while steel legs with protective glides add stability and help preserve floors. This desk has a classic look that fits seamlessly into traditional or modern learning environments. It’s a smart investment for educators focused on durability and ease of maintenance. Count on the Virco 72LB for functionality, comfort, and long-term classroom use.

Spacious Laminate Top
With an 18" x 24" high-pressure laminate surface, the desk gives students plenty of room to work. The top resists stains, scratches, and impact damage. Whether students are using textbooks or laptops, the desk offers a smooth, reliable surface that stays clean and intact through daily classroom wear and tear.
Strong Steel Frame
The 72LB's frame is built from heavy-duty steel for unmatched durability. Welded connections and under-bracing keep the desk solid and wobble-free. The powder-coated finish adds rust resistance and helps the desk maintain its sleek appearance. It’s made to survive frequent classroom rearrangements, daily use, and active student movement.
Floor-Safe Glides
The legs include smooth nylon glides that prevent scratching and scuffing on floors. These glides reduce noise when desks are moved, making them ideal for quiet classroom transitions. They also help the desk remain stable, even on uneven surfaces. It’s a detail that supports both functionality and facility maintenance.
Student-Focused Design
This desk offers ergonomic comfort with its fixed height and clean, open-leg design. It provides enough space for a range of student sizes while supporting posture and productivity. Rounded corners improve safety and prevent wrist strain. The classic look and sturdy build suit classrooms from middle school through college.
Low Maintenance
Schools love the Virco 72LB for its easy maintenance. The laminate top can be wiped down with soap and water, and the frame resists chipping. There’s no need for special cleaning supplies or frequent repairs. This reliability makes it an economical, low-hassle solution for busy school facilities and custodial teams.
Versatile for Any Setting
Its simple design works in any school setting, testing rooms, libraries, or classrooms. The compact size fits tightly into small layouts but still offers enough space for student work. Combine multiple desks to create pods or rows with minimal gaps. The neutral finishes coordinate easily with existing furniture and room decor.
