Is this real wood or MDF?

It is real wood. It takes about an hour to an hour and a half. Take your time. Those middle pieces, before screwing them in, make sure they are facing the right way. You need to read ahead to figure out the orientation of those pieces. This is one of the few times when you really need to read all the directions one time through. It is a beautiful piece. It is exactly as pictured. It WILL scratch pretty easily. It is very heavy and will be hard (though not impossible) to put together alone. Me and my wife love this piece. I have a 48" HDTV on it and the TV is the same width as it. The practical side is that it hides what you want to hid and it fits the AV components properly in the moveable shelves.

It is real wood - pine stained to a honey oak color- read all directions to assemble - be careful tightening cam locks.

This is a beautiful, well built piece of furniture made of solid wood. I love it!

It is completely real wood, seems to be clear pine, and is pretty soft. The only thing not clear pine is the drawer bottoms which seem to be some kind of plywood.

The unit is made from MDF but it is sturdy and little carving details is nice. It fit in with my other cabinet from Crate and Barrel.

It is MDF. The table is pretty sturdy- holds my machine fine. The wheel casters are pretty flimsy though, I may replace mine with something stronger.

It's mdf with a outer coating that makes it look like wood. I don't remember where it was made, but I can say it's sturdy and my daughter has played with it every day for the last 4 months and the only thing that is wrong with it is the paint on the inside of the sink is scratching off from vigorous "stirring"

They are made of MDF, but are very sturdy. For the price, you won't find better.

this table is made from MDF, but it is very sturdy and has some weight to it. It's not flimsy.

I do not think is real wood. It is a very heavy mdf material. I am very pleased with it. It is heavy. Way better than the target brand shelves, and better than the closet mate shelves. Exactly what i was looking for for under$100. I would buy again

The legs, drawer sides and fronts, and the structure attached to the legs are solid wood. There is a wood veneer on the front and the rest is medium density fiberboard with a white finish. I can't tell if there is a thin veneer on it or just paint, but the appearance is good. I had never looked that closely before and was surprised that it is mdf.

No it's probably mdf or fiberboard with wood grain laminated they where very easy to put together but not high end look although they do look nice on the wall. For the price with prime shipping it was worth it.

According to the description, it is neither plastic nor metal. It is "MDF", or Medium Density Fiberboard, a manufactured wood product akin to Masonite.

It is made of MDF wood: (from Wikipedia)Medium-density fibreboard (MDF) is an engineered wood product made by breaking down hardwood or softwood residuals into wood fibres, often in a defibrator, combining it with wax and a resin binder, and forming panels by applying high temperature and pressure.[1] MDF is generally denser than plywood. It is made up of separated fibres, but can be used as a building material similar in application to plywood. It is stronger and much more dense than particle board.[2]

It appears to be real hardwood veneer over some kind of lesser wood. Not particle board or MDF, as it is not that heavy. Nicer than something you would get at "wally world"; but, not what I would consider high-end furniture. Good value for the price.

I just received this unit yesterday and assembled it last night. It is NOT wood. There are bits of wood here and there, but very little. It's fiberboard (MDF) with veneer. It actually looks quite nice, but given the fiberboard construction it is, as a previous comment suggested, very easily damaged. When something strikes the surface, it dents or tears the fiberboard and the veneer is crushed or scraped away. Mine, too, had some shipping damage, but not in a conspicuous enough location to send it back.

I believe it's MDF (particle board). It has a nice semi glass dark cherry finish to it, and it has a good weight to it, feels very solid.

The legs and frame are solid wood, not plywood or mdf. The top is a solid compressed wood. It's very sturdy and durable. I recommend.

The top is MDF laminated with a heavy papery wood looking finish. It is pretty durable. The sides are multiple materials. The corner pieces appear to be wood. The X side support is also either wood or MDF. The backing behind the X piece is really a heavy cardboard type material laminated like the top. My unit doesn't get heavy use so it works well. It looks very nice for the price. It would not do well with heavy use because the ding and dent factor would be prohibitive.

Yes, the drawers appear to be MDF. I think the quality is fine for the money, but this piece likely won't last 20 years. We've been pleased with it. It fits our space well and is holding up fine.
