Computer tables and why they are important in a mult-user environment
Posted on Tuesday 17 January 2006

Computer tables in educational computer lab environments need to be multifunctional. Computer desks need to save space, adjust to the height of multiple users, and be designed with safety in mind to prevent trip hazards from computer cords. The best space-saving type of computer table for this environment is a multi-user desk where two students can work side by side. The tables should have adjustable keyboard trays to fit the ergonomic specifications for each user, and the computer trays must be durable enough to withstand constant adjustment each time a new user sits down at the computer desk. These tray tables should adjust to height and reach, and have the ability to slide into the computer desk when not in use.
The computer desk itself should have a secure shelf to house the computer to prevent it from being kicked or knocked around. Computer cords should fit neatly into openings on the computer desktop to avoid being accidentally pulled out. The computer table’s surface must be wide enough to securely hold the computer monitor at user’s eye level. Adjustable shelves are ideal, as a sturdy computer desk will long outlast computer equipment upgrades, allowing for differences in hardware size.
Classroom computer furniture must also hold up to the abuse endured by any classroom desk. Versa Products’ classroom computer desks have durable finishes that are easy to clean. The strong topcoat allows for years of use while still looking new. The computer lab tables are strong and sturdy enough to be moveable and still remain in like-new condition.
Versa Products offers a wide variety of height-adjustable computer desks in their extensive line of classroom furniture. While most educational computer labs rely solely on height-adjustable chairs to meet the user’s needs, height-adjustable computer tables are ideal for elementary schools that need computer furniture to be tailored for significantly smaller users. Until now, only writing desks were designed for classroom use and customized to the user’s height. Versa Products has created desks for computers designed to be easily adjusted to the height and size of the user.
