What is "rubber wood"???

I'm guessing they mean particle board, but it's not made of rubber, that's for sure.

It feels like rubber. But I don't think it is. Should be some kind of polymer.

I don't have a label to be sure, but it feels like rubber to me. You can push it in with your hand so it is pliable. It holds it shape.The handle looks like hard black tubing covered with red mesh like covering. The bag is lined with some light weight material that also covers the bottom.

It is parawood, also known as rubberwood. It is a hardwood from southeast Asia.

Flimsy, not really. But it's rubber. It's not rigid like a fiberglass or epoxy resin. But I like it better than the wood stock.

Rubber wood is an asian wood. However it sounds as if it may apply to the chairs as we know rubber to be soft or to flex. I have 4 and they are very sturdy. I would say as strong as oak or maple. I have a large family (both in quantity and weight) I have a few members and friends that top 300lbs and they have no problems with the stools at all. Designed very well for strength.

Real wood and good 'grippy' rubber. Provides a great feel.I had to do a little filing for the ambidextertrous safety on my Taurus. So know the wood I received was real :-)

It is a type of wood called nato, which is similar to mahogany. It is very, very thin. The finish is not shiny making it look more inexpensive and it is very light. (The weight was listed in the item description, but I guess I didn't realize how light it would really feel.) Makes it look and feel like a kids toy. I really wish the appearance looked more like real wood. It does have a good sound though and the price was right for just learning. It appears to be very nicely made, also.

I don't believe there is any rubber in this paint, but it is smooth and very grippy. There is no "give" or bounce effect to the surface like a rubber ball or anything. When you play you just hear the click and klack of wood knocking on wood.

It's not rubber. It's thick, solid wood board that could be used as counter top/cutting board. I really like it.

It appears to be rubber, but if you need to be sure because of something such as allergy, I'd call the manufacturer.

It's more like rubber and I've only used it on rug; sorry. For what it's worth, I love it.

Rubber. Very well made. You do have to be careful closing it because it is quite powerful and can cause harm if your fingers get caught.

It's Parawood / rubberwood. Pretty hard and dense. It has a nice smooth grain and darker cellular divits (?) vs. the surrounding main grain noticable after staining; similar to mahogany. I was planning on painting the legs as well, but the wood was so nice, I couldn't stomach it. Needed at least two to three stain coats (used Minwax Cherry) to complete evenly. Make sure to rub excess off shortly after each coat or there will be darker areas. Used two coat of Shellac for final and beautiful!

i believe its wood like mdf with a skin over it. i'd have to cut it in half to really tell though.
