Is there a finish on the wood or can it be stained?

The wood is natural, a light oak color, so it could be stained if you want. I had to sand the drawer to get it to fit properly, but it wasn't a big deal. I'm very happy with it, and I think you will be, too.

Completely unfinished. I didn't paint it. I stained it. It took the stain like a dream. Required very little sanding. For the price this is a very nice piece of furniture. Heavy wood. I imagine if you want to paint it there would be no problem.

It is finished wood. I like the customer service. My table was damaged in shipping shipping and the seller replaced it without problems. Just take pictures of the box if it is damaged before you open it

Not sure as to the wood though I believe it is mahogany. The stain is a dark cherry or mahogany with red felt. The photo included is pretty accurate as to appearance actually.

Yes. We noted prior to buying concerning some of the comments about the finish. We are delighted by the condition of our desk and have not painted or stained it.

It can be stained. The wood is not "finished" and I have used a stain like preservative on it since I leave it out all winter and the wood accepts it well. Paint would seal the wood and I believe that would promote premature rotting.

Pressed wood but stained. Assembly takes some time and patience. I have purchased 3 of these, quality varies but a good value for the price.

It is stained and was very nice. Kind of a walnut finish, no gloss, maybe a stain stain. Easy to assemble and we love it. We cut a piece of new carpet for the bottom and it looks real pretty. Good choice.

The cabinet is made from engineered wood, with a laminate finish. The finish is made to appear "stained", but in reality is probably "printed". It looks very nice still and I'm happy with mine.

No, I don't think the lumber is treated, but I believe it can be stained. That's a good idea!

I agree with the other responses. The wood has been finished with a lacquer or polyurethane. It could be removed with a stripper, and would then need to be sanded before staining. It would take some work especially with hand sanding in small areas. I suggest you live with the natural for a while and then see how you feel about it...

Ours is stained, not painted. There is no finish over it so it is not glossy at all.

It appears to already have a natural finish. The stain might not soak in unless you do a pre-process.

It's seems to be solid. However, That is not an educated observation as I've never worked with wood. It is stained but not painted. We love ours! I hope this helps :)

Both ends (cabinet spaces) are covered in black, and the center piece is unfinished. I'm sure you could stain it any color you desire. Hope this helps you.

It's completely unfinished and smooth. Its parawood, which is high quality. I stained mine; paint would probably work too

There is no finish on the swing. It is made from cedar wood. I believe it is naturally weather resistant. I'm sure you can stain or paint if you wish.
