The description states this is made from "engineered hardwood" is this made from plywood, fiberboard, particle board or something different?

Looking at the edges, it looks like layered plywood. From the front, it looks like hardwood. Very nice, sturdy, easy to assemble no matter what it is constructed of.

The stand is made from real layered hardwood, with the top layer polished out. It is "engineered" because of the layer design and with assembly holes and all connectors already machined into the item. It is a fine piece. I recommend it.

I'm really not sure what kind of wood, I believe engineered wood. I had to put it together by myself and I found this somewhat challenging. Overall I have been very happy with this. I keep it set up with a fax machine and a telephone on it.

Basic construction is particle board, but this is a very solid, well built unit. This is a major step beyond stuff like Sauder with which you may be familiar. Visible surfaces are either wood (such as doors and feet) or veneer as on the top.

Some of the parts appear to be a type of oak, but there are also plywood & particle board. It is a beautiful piece of furniture, difficult to assemble comes in three boxes all weighing over 70 pounds. I considered suicide before my entire family pitched it to help.

Plywood and Hardwood Frame. The hardwoods are "lighter" species - looks like Poplar or similar.

Just looked and it seems like some kind of composite, but not exactly plywood OR particle board. It's very solid and has a non-slip pebbled rubber top.

It is manufactured wood. Looks like particle board. I find it sturdy enough; I haven't had any issues sitting on it myself (150 lbs), nor has my husband who is 200 lbs.

Mark, I am not expert, but I feel this is not made from the composite wood. Finishing and weight of the item is makes me feel like made it from hardwood.

I don't know but is is actual wood and not particle board. We stained it a dark, almost black, color and it turned out beautiful.

I think it is particle wood. We've had this desk for about two years and have no problem with it.

It is particle board, but I love mine. I had the perfect spot for it. It seems to be nice and sturdy.

It is particle board, but not a plastic wood like finish. It's a smooth wood finish, very clean looking. If you look at it, you wouldn't notice at first it's particle board. It is also very sturdy. I bought it for my 17 year old. It looks great in her room and perfect size for her 5'7" height.

I think it is a mix of real wood and veneered particle board. But it is pretty good quality. I am pretty happy with it.

they are usually particle board covered in a vinyl/plastic. Some have a wood grained finish in the vinyl/plactic. Some are covered in a lightweight Mylar. I have had about 15 of these and none of them are plywood.
