Yes the back is finished. I also have it out in the open not against a wall.

It is finished on back side. Not a great job but it doesn't look bad at all.

The back is somewhat finished. It doesn't have such a finished furniture look as the front but it looks a lot better than comparable products you have to assemble yourself... Hope that helps! I love mine- I have two units and the desk. The first file I bought around 5 years ago and it still looks and functions great!

I believe it does. The desk has gone to a family member, so it's no longer where I can just peek around back and look ... but I believe it does have a finished back side. It's a lovely piece. It belonged to my fiancé who didn't need the same drawer space I require (!) for me there would have needed to be bigger drawers, but he didn't, and he was very thoroughly pleased with this desk.

Hello, I purchased the paprika finish. The back is not finished; In my opinion, it will look best if it sits up against a wall. The back is thin and there are 2 black screws that are visible. Hope this helps.

The back isn't finished like the sides. You can see the silver screws. It is a thin piece of board that is of the same sheen as the rest of the piece.

Yes, the front is finished. This is a great desk, very sturdy and well worth the price.

Yes, all four sides are finished. It doesn't have to back up against a wall to hide the back.

Yes, the back is finished in the same manner as the front, i.e. no "rough wood".

Yes, the back is finished. There is a paperboard backing behind the area with the door but it is still finished.

The back of the deck is finished in the same manner as the rest of the desk. The hutch that sits on the back has aback that is finished but it doesn't appear to be wood. I think it would look fine if the back was exposed to the room. We had no difficulty with the shipment or (minor) assembly of this desk and it looks nice in the nook it is in. It does not get daily use, just a nice repository for the laptop and miscellaneous paperwork.

It's black but the finish is rough and not like the front. I don't think it's made to be viewed from the back.

Yes it is finished. Not the same raised panels as on the cabinet doors, but a smooth polished flat back with the same training and two vertical risers.

The back is finished, but it has 2 boards that have to be nailed onto the back (small nails). If you used a black marker to hide the heads it would look OK I believe. Mine is sitting in the middle of the living room (bought it for my daughter but her house isn't ready yet) & I never noticed it until I actually LOOKED at it.

The back is finished with the same varnish as the rest, very nice. Unlike some desks that are done with rough, unfinished backs. This could very easily sit in an open space and look great from any angle.
