is the back side of the desk finished, since it will not be placed against the wall?

Yes... as it's not real wood, it has a wood stain photo finish (Examples here https://www.google.com/search?q=wood+photo+finish&rlz;=1T4GGNI_enUS570US570&tbm;=isch&tbo;=u&source;=univ&sa;=X&ei;=YJdRU9_6Kbi_sQTGgIKQBA&ved;=0CCcQsAQ&biw;=1536&bih;=702)... looks just like the side you see in the photo. By the way, it's a great desk for the price... I think you'll be pleased with it.

The paneling on the back has a finished look, so you can keep the desk out in the middle of the room and not backed up against a wall.

It's the usual masonite type of thin board nailed to the back to add spme rigidity. Not finished but not too ugly.

We recently purchased this desk and the back is finished. It's a great looking desk!

yes it is finished. Looks just like the sides. I have mine turned to the side also.

It has a sturdy backboard that matches the finish of the desk, but I put mine against a wall anyway because you can tell the backboard is not hardwood. Once assembled, it is a very nice piece of furniture.

Yes, the finished is on the back of the table...I would recommend it, but I had a issues with the broken cracks on the wood. I don't blame the seller, because it was well rapped up. I blame FedEx on delivery."They Just Don't Care on the delivery of their Packages"

I bought this desk 6 months ago. I have the desk set against a wall, but all sides are finished in the same way. I am very impressed with both the quality and finish, especially considering the affordable price.

Yes it finished on the back and all sides. You can have it in the center of a room. You can also change the side piece to the left or right whenever you decide to change the desk around. I love it and get lots of compliments

I had to go check because the back of mine is against a wall....no, the back of the drawers are not finished (like the rest of the desk).

Hi Jeremy, The back is finished so that you do not have to have this against a wall. It would be in the finish that you selected for the entire unit. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you any further concerns. Sandy, Owner Best Kitchen Products

Yes, both sides of this storage desk are finished. The only brackets which exist are located on the inner sides both right and left which are sliders which holds the drawers in place and can be removed but you will render the desk useless as drawers will not operate.

Hi Tracey - yes it is finished and can be placed anywhere. In-fact I use it as a side-desk so the back is completely exposed. It's a really really solid and good-looking desk, I'd highly recommend it.

Yes it is finished. It has a thin coat of something on it for protection. I love the piece. It's hard to find cabinets that are real wood any more. This piece should last for many years.

Yes it is finished on both sides and very easy to assemble. Keep in mind that it becomes quite heavy the further along the 'put together' process goes so keep it close to where you plan to put it.

Yes, it's all finished. The piece that's used behind the file drawer has a circle cut in it for power cords but there's no raw wood or particle board showing. The side without the drawer would look fine if it was facing into the room rather than up against a wall.

The back of the hutch is a black cardboard. You would also be able to see all the nails on the edges which hold it on. It wouldn't be very attractive in plain sight. I recommend putting it up against a wall. Otherwise, it is a nice desk. Very study but it was hard to put together and the instructions were ridiculous.

this piece is finished except for the back of the file drawers and the other corner shelf part. there is a solid back that runs from one corner to the next but the shelf section that has a door and the other end that has the small and larger drawers has cardboard on the back? Doesn't make sense to me they made the rest of it solid except for the two end sections? My husband and I did not like that part but it is a nice desk and we kept it.
