Is the back cardboard?

I don't consider it cardboard. I think it's "pressed board". It's a solid piece, just not as thick as the sides. It' s very well made. I'd buy it again.

I think it's pressboard, but yes, basically it's like laminated cardboard. The drawer bottoms are made from the same.

The back is a more solid pressed wood/particle board and is inset into the back- it does not just nail on and hold the whole thing together.

I believe it's wood - but it's skinny skinny. It's one piece and not folded with a crease like some cardboard backs are. It's the same color as the rest of the unit - black in my case.

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.

Yes it is cardboard. One side is the Christmas tree and the other is the mountain they go up after they get through the ice tracks. It stand with the support of the tracks and it bends like a 3 panel display board.

Indeed the back is cardboard. Less than one inch thick, but placing it against a wall should do the trick. That didn't matter as much to me because I knew that the wall I set it against would be additional support & would hide the back. All in all I was satisfied with the purchase, The cardboard back looks more expensive from the inside view, painted nicely, & if placed properly no would really notice that it was cardboard unless they were looking for it.

I don't understand your question. If you are asking about the packaging it was cardboard. Well packed, delivered in very good condition.

I don't know as I installed the cardboard back but I wouldn't recommend it.

No cardboard back but it doesn't need one; wouldn't fit in the Wellspring if it had one.

It is wood. It's very sturdy. Of course the backing is the thin cardboard type material.

It has a finished look, but is actually a cardboard with wood laminate appearance.The whole unit has held up well for me since I wrote the review.

Hi Kathleen...The back is cardboard. The bookcase looks good but you really have to know how to put it together. My husband and I never got the doors even. The bottom shelf is not aligned just right. We took a discounted price. We did not want the bother to return it. We wrote to Amazon and Ameriwood told them the assembly problems. If it came assembled it would be nice. The purpose we need the bookcase for is working for us.

Yes-the back is also made of wood. I believe it may be some type of particle board, very sturdy, and painted to match the entire unit.

No. the back is a black board type material and you can see the screws and brackets that it is put together with. But the front is beautiful and good quality wood and well made

Cardboard. As long as it is up against a wall, it is not an issue. Happy with the closet otherwise.

Mine didn't have cardboard. Just peel the blue film off. You don't need the back. :)

The center portion has a cardboard backing the sides is particle wood back. Hope this helps out.

This is actually a pretty good piece for the price- no cardboard like backing. I really like this.

The back is a heavy white cardboard, you nail it on all the way around and it serves to make the cabinet more sturdy. I put my cabinets in the garage against a painted sheetrocked wall, and I put a white narrow board underneath for added support. So the back not being solid wood was not an issue for me. I was looking for something relatively inexpensive that worked well and looked good. I have been very happy with my cupboards I bought three of them and went all the way down the wall.
