What is the bottom and back made of? It looks like press board in the picture.

It's a thin press board but it's very quality. It doesn't hold on moisture well which is good for preventing mold. I use a terra cotta peeve soaked in water with each loaf to maintain an ideal moisture level for bread.

I am not sure but, to me it looks like a piece of plywood not pressed board.

Yes, it is a thin pressed board, but it doesn't show when in use and seems to be sturdy enough to hold everything I put in it.

I did not look at that closly when visiting my son's house. I gave it to him and his wife as a house warming gift and had it sent directly. sitting on the counter it looks good and they love it.Sorry I just didn't look at back and bottom.

This is a very well made bread box. The bottom and the back are made from thin plywood. There is no press board or particle board used to make this bread box. It is beautiful and I am very pleased with mine.

It is from press board. It looks like nice wood from the images they use to promote it. If you install it correctly it will be a sturdy piece but I was disappointed because the instructions weren't clear and I damaged it right at the beginning of putting it together. I asked to return it because I thought it was real wood and the color was more black. The company wouldn't return or refund my money which I thought was not good for business but they did say they would send replacement parts. It's a 50 - 50 chance if it will pass your taste?

It's pressboard, covered with a laminate. Heavy though, and doesn't look cheap. I'm satisfied.

It is not wood. It is not press board . It does not appear to be plastic. I do not know what it is but it is strong and well made with wood appearance .

The back is press board, which is formed wood pulp, it's fairly sturdy but it's not wood or plywood. I think that's hard to find if not impossible in this price range

I don't know. It's sort of a thin Formica-like veneer over some sort of pressed wood, I'd imagine. The boards that form the sides, top, bottom and shelves are fairly thick and heavy. Very heavy. The 'beadboard' piece that forms the back is very thin, comes folded -- it looks nice but is not what I'd call 'wood.' That said I am very happy with these pieces. I ended up buying 14 of them to do a total makeover in my basement craft room and office and it's been a year now; they are perfect for my needs and very roomy and sturdy. Whatever they may be made of.

It's made if press wood. I've bought two of them and they look good as well as hold tons of our DVDs. Can't beat it for the price.

The bottom is made of tent material. I've had this in my 2 year old son's room for a few months now and I'm very happy with it. It is very durable and looks like it will last for years.

As others have said, the sides are a vinyl-coated hardboard. The whole thing is pretty durable as far as day-to-day use, but you could definitely destroy it with power tools to get to the contents, if you were so inspired.

I believe it is particle board covered with a thin wood cover. I have two of them, they really work good for company sitting in the living room when they have a drink, snacks, etc. Barry Howard

The entire bed, including the drawers, is press/chip board with wood veneer. It's a very dense press board, and very sturdy.

It is made pf pressboard. Don't bother buying it. It's the worst piece I ever bought. It arrived broken and through many attempts had no recourse. So we're stuck with it. The drawer at the bottom is also difficult to handle. Don't bother- it is a waste of money and a horrible product. Spend the money for a nicer piece.

It is thin pressed board. It is much like cardboard but a lot stronger. This desk is heavy, very heavy. The backing is solid enough that it holds good, but thin enough to let you cut custom holes if you need. Hope it helps

I believe it is pressed board. I bought mine in 2013. I just took a shelf out to check and the short edges that you don't see are unfinished and show that they are pressed board. I couldn't tell about the rest of the boards, but I looked inside the holes for the metal pegs on the vertical side boards that hold the shelving; it looks like those might be pressed board as well. I'm not certain, however. But the grain of the wood and quality of this product is very good--not like some other kits for shelving that I have. The outer pieces all look like real solid wood--no edge is unfinished that I can see (can't check underneath now). The only complaint I have is the backing, which is a rather flimsy thin piece made to look like wood (typical in bookshelf kits). But it is inset slightly (nicely designed), with the top and side boards extending slightly out and a (pressed board) thick, finished horizontal cross piece in the middle to help brace the back; if you have this against a wall, it really doesn't matter about the backing. The hardware seems sturdy (shelving pegs, for example, are metal, not plastic). Overall, I am really satisfied with this purchase and would recommend it to anyone that would like some nicer shelving kits for storage.

No it's veneered press-board despite that it's very sturdy, hope this helps, Paul.
