Is the back of the desk finished?

No, it's not finished. But it can be easily finished with laminate material, as I did so that I didn't have to put it in a corner.

The back is a thin piece of brown cardboard-like material, not too bad looking but not really designed for show.

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!

The back of the desk is plain. Same is the case with the side. The drawers; two of them are in the front

Yes. It is finished on all sides-including the back in black. It is a lovely table that sits next to husbands recliner.

Yes, the desk is finished on the back. The matching hutch (sold separately) is not and that side should be against the wall if you get the hutch. Otherwise, the desk looks great from the back.

No, it's not. The back is just a thin layer of board that is nailed in. The color mathes the desk but it wouldn't look presentable if you wanted the desk outward facing. I think it only works against two walls. Hope that helps!! :0)

The backs are finished, however the drawers are not on gliders. We bought two of these about six months ago a we love them. Plenty of storage, the drawers open and close easily, and the finish is beautiful!

Yes & No. The back piece is the same color as the rest of the desk, but it's not the same material.

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.

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.

No, it is finished. My desk is dark, too, but I really like the contrast. Besides, I keep it under the desk when I'm not using it. You'll love it. I have one at work, too, and I got one for my co-worker.

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

Yes. The back is fully finished. One thing you have to be careful about is the alignment of the various parts. As with most prefab products, the line up of holes/bolts is not always perfect and can require some innovative maneuvers to make sure the parts are well sealed.
