It's a thick stiff board. Sort of looks and feels like foam board, but it doesn't bend and is much stiffer and more rigid.

The back is made of the usual fiber-board stuff. I am VERY pleased with our bookcases (2 of them) -- they are extremely sturdy, attractive, and, after nearly a year, are showing absolutely no signs of warping, leaning, bowing, sagging, or looking "cheap" in any way. As long as they are full of books and against a wall, you can't really see the backing, anyway, though it does have an attractive wood pattern.

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?

I no longer have this item but it was of good build quality and as I recall was finished fairly nicely on the back side. The front side is real wood but the back side is black fiberboard but I think it is good enough to have in the middle of a kitchen.

It's press-board. Just a cardboard back. It is not exactly what I would call sturdy. I am afraid to move it from where it is currently sitting in my home.

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

Particle board is the backing. The shelves and frame appear to be wood but don't quote me because I didn't research the material, just needed it to display some nick nacks.

It's black particle board laminate, and there is a (approx) 2inch wide vertical board piece that supports the back from bowing (like pressed particle laminate does) which also had a few of the parts sticker labels on it...

The backboard does not come with the rubber padding. You need to order one separately.

Particle board. It is not as compressed as I was expecting. We sent it back. Hope that's helpful.

The back wood is the same material as the modular. I think the exterior is Formica with pressboard in the center. Hope this helps.

The back is made out of wood, its the same color, but is much thinner material. The back has visible screws. I have mine against a wall, I would not use it where the back can be seen.

The back is made of heavy coated cardboard. Its the same as most RTA furniture I have seen but a little better quality than your average.

Wood, however, the shape in which this piece was delivered was terrible and dealing with the company (not Amazon) was one of the more frustrating customer service episodes I have ever encountered. I would not recommend this sideboard or this company. I refused the delivery (even the delivery company was appalled at the condition) and it still took me months to get a refund.
