Many people ask, “How heavy is a school desk?” Generally speaking, a complete set of student desk and chair weighs approximately 20 to 30 catties (approx. 10–15 catties); however, the weight varies depending on the materials used.

 

Today, let’s take this adjustable desk and chair set as an example: the desk weighs roughly 18 catties, while the chair weighs around 9 catties. Of course, the weight is also directly related to the thickness of the materials used; the model shown in the image features 1.2mm-thick steel tubing—the thicker the material, the heavier the unit becomes.
