Is the back of the desk stained the same as the front? I'd like to put this in an area where the back would show.

it is however it has a flat edge on the top rather than the sculped or routered edge. The quality of the product is really good.

Yes it is the same color. There is a whole cut out towards the bottom to out cords through. I love this desk and is great for the price.

Thank for your interest. The color stain applied evenly over the whole item, so certainly will display as the same color. I have confident you will find it a great purchase no matter where you are placing in your home.

Yes, the front and back of the desk is the same. I LOVE this desk by the way. It is super easy to put together and is much more sturdy than one might think.

Yes the stain is consistent throughout the desk. My desk has the back exposed and it looks great.

I bought this desk 6 months ago. I have the desk set against a wall, but all sides are finished in the same way. I am very impressed with both the quality and finish, especially considering the affordable price.

Yes, it's finished on all sides. When building it, it looks exactly like the picture. Great desk overall.

Thank you all so much for your responses! I've ordered it with confidence now, as it perfectly matches my wood/glass desk.

Both ends (cabinet spaces) are covered in black, and the center piece is unfinished. I'm sure you could stain it any color you desire. Hope this helps you.

Hi, Yes, it is black wood all the way around, so it should be fine if that side of it shows. It's a very sharp looking desk all around. :-) Hope this helps.

Yes it finished on the back and all sides. You can have it in the center of a room. You can also change the side piece to the left or right whenever you decide to change the desk around. I love it and get lots of compliments

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.

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)

Chris. It has a back panel that you attach to the back that is the same color as the top of the desk. Just remember when you attach it to attach with colored side out. I made the mistake of attaching backwards and you cannot remove. Also, alittle FYI where the hard drive sits in the desk I had to remove the back panel. It was getting too hot and I did not like leaving the front of the cabinet open. I love the desk and all the pieces I got to match it.

The back of the hutch is a black cardboard. You would also be able to see all the nails on the edges which hold it on. It wouldn't be very attractive in plain sight. I recommend putting it up against a wall. Otherwise, it is a nice desk. Very study but it was hard to put together and the instructions were ridiculous.

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, the back of the desk does reflect the same style as the sides. There are no drawers or handles on the back side. In my opinion does not have to be against the wall.

There is very little "back" to the desk, given that it is mostly open. But, yes, all sides are finished so you can position it anyway in your room.

It is stained and nice looking for money. We actually set it up in a built in wall unit with adjustable shelving in our great room and the stain was perfect for the shelving.

No. I have this on two desks and they have been there for about four months with no harm to the finish on the desks. Hope this helps.
