Description
The Hartford writing desk pairs a warm brown top with a distressed dark base, giving a home office the character of traditional furniture. Its open sides and lower cross supports keep the profile lighter than a large pedestal desk while three drawers keep small essentials close.
The center drawer has a drop front for keyboard use, and two utility drawers provide separate supply storage. A built-in power center places AC and USB connections at the desk, with wire-management grommets helping route leads away from the working area.
Features
- 60-inch work surface: Space for writing and a measured computer arrangement without the bulk of an L-shaped desk.
- Drop-front center drawer: Use the central drawer for keyboard or pencil storage as the task requires.
- Two utility drawers: Keep smaller office essentials separated and within reach.
- Integrated connections: The power center supplies two AC outlets and three USB connections.
- Finished on all sides: Place the desk facing into a room when the layout calls for it.
- Distressed two-tone finish: The rubbed-black base and contrasting top give the Hartford its distinctive appearance.

Check the 31-inch working height
The manufacturer gives the dimensions as 60 inches wide, 28 inches deep and 31 inches high. That height is useful to check against your chair, especially if you plan to type on the desktop. The center keyboard drawer can create a different input position, but check the usable tray area and knee clearance with your own equipment.
Use the power center thoughtfully
| Laptop and monitor | Use their appropriate power adapters and follow the power center's labeled ratings. |
|---|---|
| Small devices | The USB connections are convenient, but no modern USB-C Power Delivery rating is established. |
| Cable route | Use the grommets to avoid leads crossing the writing area or walkway. |
| Room placement | The finished back supports visible placement; plan access to a wall outlet. |
Common questions
What working height should I plan for?
The desktop is 31 inches high. Check your chair height, armrest clearance and comfortable typing position before choosing the workstation.
Is it entirely brown?
The catalog uses Brown as the color label, but the pictured Hartford finish combines a brown-toned top with a distressed rubbed-black base.
Is the center drawer usable for a keyboard?
Yes. It has a drop front for keyboard/pencil-drawer use. Check the space required by your keyboard and mouse.
Does it have a hanging-file drawer?
No. This writing-desk configuration provides utility and center-drawer storage.
Can the USB ports replace a laptop charger?
A laptop-charging capability is not established. Use the computer's specified charger through an appropriate AC connection.
