Is it real wood or particle board?

It isn't real wood but plenty sturdy enough and is not cheap at all. What I appreciated was how everything fit perfect and assembly was hassle free.

Particle board. Not as nice as I thought it would be. A lot of parts to put together as well. It is holding up though

Nothing is real wood anymore, but it looks good when completed and has a nice finish. Real wood would cost at least 3 x more, I'd think. I'm satisfied with it. It's not trash composite, but well designed and solidly built. Takes a few hours to build, but you most likely won't be disappointed if you buy it.

I'm not sure of the exact wood material, but it looks and feels pretty solid. It does NOT seem like cheap particle board in any of the pieces.

It's particle board, but it has lasted through one move and will hopefully survive another. The only thing wrong with it after 2.5 years is one peeled side of one board. (The edge trim has peeled off.). It's very sturdy, aside from that.

It is manufactured wood. Looks like particle board. I find it sturdy enough; I haven't had any issues sitting on it myself (150 lbs), nor has my husband who is 200 lbs.

I have this and it is particle board but a very heavy and high grade. I still polish and dust it the same as all my real wood.

It's a very sturdy particle board that folds open and then attaches around the perimeter of the unit. It matches perfectly and looks like real wood, especially when you put a few items on shelves. I purposely chose this item because it had a good looking back!

The entire shelving unit is made of solid wood. No particle board in sight. It's a good buy for the $$ and it looks quite nice, too.

The entire piece is real wood. The back panel seems to be laminate. None of the item is made of particle board/mdf.

I think it is particle board but it is hard to tell and this is very well made and is holding up well!

It is not made of real wood, but it looks and feels very solid. There are no exposed edges that reveal particle board cross-section.

I think it is particle wood. We've had this desk for about two years and have no problem with it.

It is not solid wood but rather finely compressed cellulose with a veneer of wood laminate. Definitely not particle board. The weight is very close to solid wood.

I don't really know, but it is very sturdy and fits right into my dcor. It looks like oak, and if not, it sure looks like it. Don't be afraid to get it, you will be pleased. My husband just said it was particle board!! He is a woodworker by trade and he was impressed with it. Hope this helps.

I don't know but is is actual wood and not particle board. We stained it a dark, almost black, color and it turned out beautiful.

I'm not sure what the wood is but it is solid. The walnut veneer is beautiful and in putting it together, I saw no evidence of the particle board stuff used to make furniture these days. If you decide to buy this, the only change we made when assembling this piece was that my husband put a drop of wood glue in each hole to attach the back to the sides for added strength as he and another family member weigh between 275 and 300. Anyone can sit on it with no problems and I have had it for about 8 months now.

I believe it is solid wood. No particle board. It's beautiful and functional.
