Popularity of the Classic series of desk top letter trays has been unprecedented. Apparently many people love the feel and warmth the wood offers and like the slightly "retro" look of the tray styling. Even if it's just the look that you like, the selection has now been expanded to include solid mahogany construction in addition to the existing solid oak and solid walnut woods. The raw mahogany

And for those who have elected to purchase Harvard or Cherry Ridge style trays in multiple configurations, you may be required to assemble the trays and the stacking posts when you receive your trays. They are normally shipped from the factory unassembled to avoid damage in transit. Never the less, they are actually very simple to assemble. But, if care is not used, damage can occur to the trays.

Stacking supports (07256) are designed to be used with Hedberg, Classic, American Legal and Archetype series desk trays. These supports can be added to existing trays at any time to create a vertical stack of trays, as long as all the trays are the same size, (ie: all letter size or all legal size, not a mixture of letter and legal). There is a youTube video that shows the correct installation of

There is a bit of confusion over the names of some of the SuccessImage trays - people generally use the terms "desk tray", "in box", "out box", "letter tray", "paper tray" and a few other variations to describe these typical office trays. Care should be used though in using the term "letter" as this sometimes refers to the sizing of the tray - that being specifically intended for letter size

Did you know that the Successimage desk pads are made from a material that protects and heals itself? The wonder material creates a very smooth, consistant surface that is very comfortable to write on. It creates a "compliant" surface that gives just a bit under light pressure, making even the most stubborn pen flow with ease and a smooth flow.And on the other side, the material incorporates a

It's been called "The World's Finest Writing Surface". And given the amazing properties of the material, Rhinolin probably is. Although it is a synthetic material, the manufacturer of the material states the "firm, self-healing surface 'gives'." Certainly, to write on the material with any type of pen certainly has a comfortable feel with just a hint of resistance. At the same time though, there

In response to numerous questions about the possibility of our desk pads scratching the surface of your desk, the answer is a definite NO! All our desk pads have a backing made from a thin layer of foam. This helps give a more compliant surface to fit to any irregularities of the desk surface and does a beautiful job of protecting the desk surface. So whether you're using an expensive, exotic

We are often asked for the darkest wood finish we have. While Dark Cherry and Walnut are both fairly dark, by far the darkest finish is Mahogany. You can view all our finishes side by side by going to the SuccessImage.com wood finishes page. Keep in mind that differences in monitor color settings, different monitors and even minor variations in the hardwood can affect the final shade of color!

We have noticed a bit of confusion with our cherry wood finishes. This has stemmed from there apparently being 3 finishes - Natural Cherry, Seasoned Cherry and Dark Cherry. In fact there are only two finishes. Seasoned Cherry and Dark Cherry are in fact the same. We have modified all the web site information to reflect this and all references to Seasoned Cherry are now changed to Dark Cherry.
