Is the dolly made from treated lumber? Can it be stained? I plan to use this dolly only outdoors. Thanks

It is not treated and can be stained. I would use a waterproofer on the top and bottom if left outside in the elements.

No it is not made from treated lumber and yes it can be stained. It is a very sturdy dolly and we are very happy with ours.

I only use it indoors but my husband did treat it so I can use it outside also. I have 3 and like them very much.

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

Not sure if the lumber is treated but I am sure it could be stained. We use to move big pots around the yard.

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

any wood could be stained, but it is very plain wood , like maple or pine that is not meant to be stained.it looks nice anyways.

we bought it for our Mother as a Christimas gift to use out in the yard. Its description said that it is rot-resistant cypress and does not need to be stained, painted or watersealed.

The bottom has slats. It will definitely need an exterior varnish if it's going to be used outside. The "wood" is not very strong. If you were going to put potted plants in it, you will need to line the wagon to protect it from rotting. The stain does not appear to rub off, not sure what will happen if it gets wet.

It stains beautifullyy. It is made of rubberwood. I used general finishes gel stain and a satin poly acrylic over it.

The wood is solid, yes, but I would definitely stain it is you were to use the outdoor.

You should put spar urethane on it. It is already stained and the wood will last, but the sun and rain exposed areas will take a beating. I've had mine about 2 years and the top pieces are a little worse for the wear. I only put a light coat of spar on it. Wish I had done more, especially at the top and where it contacts the ground. I did glue all the joints when putting it together. It made it far more solid and able to be picked up by two people and moved. Just my opinion anyway.

Legs are wood. Don't know what kind of wood, but it's stained very dark brown. Seems to be very hard and good quality.

It is stained but I would add waterproofing. I received it in late October but have not built it yet.

I don't have the dolly with me right now but I think the boards are an inch thick. If you look where the wheels are, you'll see boards of the same thickness. I have two of them and I'm really thrilled with the quality. Stained one and painted the other.

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.

Would not be good for outdoors. It is definitely not plywood material. Legs are solid wood top is wood not solid but appears to be hollow

This is my second year and it's in the same shape as when I put it up. I did stain mine when I put it up originally and since I didn't like the color, I also just sprayed over the outside with black paint which made it look like burned wood so I assume that helps preserve the wood but so far, it's fine. I just left it out in the elements all winter filled with soil.

I had an outside culvert that I covered with Copper-coated PT Plywood, & then primered & painted & it's working well- so if you're painting it, sure & it's non-toxic. If you're just staining it, it sure is ugly as a finish, so you'd have to paint it, as its color would bleed thru any clear stains & probably taint the darker ones. Good Luck!

Yes. From the Haba website: Made of beech wood, stained (NOT painted) with a non-toxic, lead free, water based stains.

It is stained and nice looking for money. We actually set it up in a built in wall unit with adjustable shelving in our great room and the stain was perfect for the shelving.
