is the back finished?

The back isn't finished. It has a piece of cardboard-type backing that you have to nail on.

Not with msg/wood, it's a piece of that strong laminated cardboard that you tack in with nails.

The back is thick cardboard. The front side (the side that you will see if you open drawers and in the exposed spaces) is "finished" - it matches the color of the unit. The back side of the cardboard is not.

I am not home now...but my husband who put the bench together says that it is finished on the back side.

Yes it is finished. It has a thin coat of something on it for protection. I love the piece. It's hard to find cabinets that are real wood any more. This piece should last for many years.

Sorry, I'm a little behind on mail. Yes it is finished on all sides, so looks good from the back too!

It sure is, it's lovely, back & front. The back panel is finished though it is flat. The side panel is finished on the back side as well. I hope this helps!

The back is finished just as the sides and front - it may be pressed board but it is finished and the overall piece is one color - black for us. However, it is a complete do it yourself assembly - and some pieces were damaged.

It is a fairly low grade of thin plywood. I do not think it would look too attractive from the back. The rest of the piece is very attractive and well made.

The back is finished but there is a raised lip on both sides and back for the cushion. I suppose you could use it as a coffee table if you don't mind that, we have it at the foot ofOur bed. It is not very high either.

Yes, it is finished. Also, the 2nd shelf from the top (it pulls out) can be adjusted up or down.

The back is somewhat finished. Parts of the back are pressed wood/cardboard, but they do match the finish.

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

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.

If you are referring to the back side of the desk, yes, all pieces re finished.

Yes, the back is finished in the same manner as the front, i.e. no "rough wood".

Yes it is finished all around. It's a great wine cooler. I highly recommend it.

Hi Tracey - yes it is finished and can be placed anywhere. In-fact I use it as a side-desk so the back is completely exposed. It's a really really solid and good-looking desk, I'd highly recommend it.

It is finished so you can show the back. I suggest you put a glass or plexi top on it because the wood is soft. That is my one and only complaint about the desk.
