How does the finish wear on this piece? I have had past issues with the finish coming off of furniture made of MDF, particle board, etc.

We have had no problems with that. Our household includes a 15, 16, and 19 year old, and this sits in front of the TV and gets a lot of use. It has been cleaned with standard cleaning supplies and so far so good. No signs of the finish coming off anywhere.

The finish on this is sturdy. I opened and closed the top piece many times and no signs of wear and tear. I bought a custom fit glass surface to go on top and it looks great

Yes, although to be technically accurate, 98% is more like it. The bottom shelf is plywood, but as a wood worker I can tell you that is exactly what you want or the expansion/contraction cycle can make it fit poorly. The sides are likely that as well, but everything else on the piece is solid. If your question is about particle, MDF or compressed board instead, then no this piece doesn't have any of it. It is a great little piece of furniture, well worth the price and fairly good build quality.

I have had the furniture for a about 6 months now. I did not see any warranty informaiton shipped with it. The only bad thing I can say about this piece is that the cushions are white and they get dirty pretty easy. If they could provide a diffrent color that would be so much better. The furniture it self has been great and is really comfrotable. I love it!

Yes it is finished. It has a thin coat of something on it for protection. I love the piece. It's hard to find cabinets that are real wood any more. This piece should last for many years.

The entire piece looks like real solid wood...no particle board is visible. It is a heavy, beautiful piece that I have enjoyed for 4 or 5 years already.

I haven't put any finish to protect top. Still holds up nicely. Hope this is helpful. Have island for almost a year now.

I think the inside of the drawers are mdf but the outside, is wood. Finish is nice. Regardless, it is a nice looking, sturdy piece of furniture (especially for the price). I would order again.

I have had mine for almost 9 years. No rust spots what so ever! And I run my furniture through the ringer, so to say! But it still is shiny and new.

We haven't had any problem with the range of materials we've used this on for over a year with a cross country move in between, but none of the furniture was really high end. You put it on the soft rubber and it comes off with the rubber (I guess it's rubber). The minor bits of the glue were easily rubbed off the wood. But that was just my own experience. The glue strips are 3M and really adhere to the rubber.

Sorry Kate, can't help. We have only had the furniture about a month, live in Florida and the furniture is in a screened in protected area. I would think if it is covered it should hold up for you.

I've had mine just over three years now and have never had a problem. Not daily use, certainly, but for projects as needed. Kitchen cabinets, louve doors, moulding, the odd piece of furniture. I do make sure to clean the pieces properly (relatively easy, since there are so few parts), but I've had no durability issues so far.

It looks like real wood to me. Th stain is dark but I can see the wood grain. The bottom panels in drawer look like thin plywood but the legs , desktop and external panels look like solid wood. We have had it almost one year and it looks good and is holding up fine we just use it as a desk to hold a laptop , monitor and a lamp we r not very rough on it.

I have not had any issues with destruction of any furniture that it has been placed upon. I love this product and would recommend it to anyone!

Thank you for your question. It's made from MDF (pressed wood with a smooth veneer surface) Thanks for looking! Home Wishes

Not solid wood or MDF for certain. It is some type of chipboard or as others say press board. The laminate does seem to stronger/thicker then what is usually on furniture. Definitely not like a kitchen counter top but I think the laminate will hold up better then most I have seen on this type of "assembly required" furniture. Which is a good thing, a water ring or small spill shouldn't bubble up the laminate and press-board like other brands. This and the floating desk have been good for me so far.

I have not had any trouble. I use a good furniture polish several times a week to keep any liquid from going into the finish. It beads up the liquid for easy wipe up.

Be careful this stuff can react with some wood finishes. Just pulled some off an armoire shelf and most of it came off but the rest is proving hard to get off. Trying to google a fix now.
