Hooker Shabby Chic Computer Desk with Optional TV Hutch

Description

We admit it: at some point in the work day, we think about the TV shows we're going to watch when we're done. And when you're working at home, the Hooker Shabby Chic Computer Desk with Optional TV Hutch makes the path from the daily grind to primetime relaxation very short. This charming, island-inspired set is the perfect accessory to your day: a complete storage and work system meets a total entertainment area.

Both pieces are crafted with durable hardwood solids and select veneers over engineered wood, which ensure they resist both moisture and expansion. Artfully turned legs, framed drawers and unusual leaf-shaped moldings behind carved floral pulls have a well-loved look under the rustic, breezy distressed white finish. All drawers feature strengthening English or French dovetailing, smooth full-extension steel glides, and sturdy plywood bottoms and sides. The finished back lets you arrange this desk anywhere in the room, and built-in levelers keep the entire unit steady.

The desk is outfitted with a super-modern power bar including two grounded electrical outlets, a phone jack, high-speed data ports, and USB upstream and downstream adaptors. A laptop or keyboard fits neatly in the center drop-front drawer - just flip down the front for more flat, open space. A file drawer that accommodates letter and legal files and two partitioned utility drawers - the top drawer includes a drop-in sectioned tray - catch folders and office supplies.

Two adjustable/removable shelves fit behind the two double-hinged wraparound doors of the hutch's top section, which also boasts a thick back panel to support mounted plasma or LCD TVs up to 47W inches. The bottom section includes two left-hand drawers and three left-hand compartments, as well as two right-side drawers and a charging station with three electrical outlets and three compartments for mobile phones and small electronics.

Construction of Hooker Furniture
Hooker Furniture chooses solid woods and select wood veneers over wood frames to construct their high-quality pieces. By using wood veneer, pieces can be given a decorative look that can't be achieved with the use of solid wood alone. The veneers add beautiful accents of color and design to the pieces, and are placed over engineered wood product for strength. All Hooker wood veneers are made from renewable resources and are located primarily on the flat surfaces of the furniture, such as the case tops and sides.

Each Hooker furniture piece is finished using up to 30 different steps, including 13 steps of hand-sanding and accenting. Physical distressing is done by hand. Pieces receive two to three coats of solid lacquer to create extra depth and add durability to the finish. Each case frame is assembled using strong mortise-and-tenon joints, which are then reinforced by mechanical fasteners and glue. On most designs, end panels extend to the floor to add strength and stability. Panel-style furniture features strong panel and frame construction to help avoid warping.

Your Hooker furniture features finished case interiors to eliminate unsightly "raw wood" and to help protect items you may store inside drawers or cabinets. Drawer parts are given a urethane or lacquer finish to create smooth action and durability. All drawers use dovetails, either English or French, for years of problem-free use. Drawer bottoms are constructed from plywood and attached to the plywood drawer sides via the use of hot glue and/or wood glue blocks. Most drawers are full width, depth, and height to provide the maximum amount of storage space.
