Is the file cabinet manufactured wood or solid wood? Does it require assembly?

It is all the same material - not solid wood, but manufactured wood, with white vinyl covering. Everything requires assembly. It's not hard... esp. if you've ever assembled IKEA furniture.. Pretty much the same thing.

It is manufactured wood and you do have to assemble it. It is not hard to put together and works great. However, they included two of the same piece in the box for the bottom drawer so I had to call and have the company ship the other piece. Only complaint was they did not overnight it and it took a week to get.

The majority of it is solid wood. Particle board for the bottom of the drawers but the sides of the drawers are plywood. The area dividing the lift top to the bottom drawers is ply wood. (The lift top itself is wood)

Yes, it's real wood. I bought all five pieces on sale and I just love it. Put it together myself with a little help from my son with the filing cabinet. One of the best bargains I've ever seen.

It is manufactured wood but well done, it has held up fine (although it does not get daily use), and I am happy with the product. If you are going for heavy duty office use, buy solid wood, but it will cost you a lot more money.

It is constructed of solid wood and wood veners. We love it! Easy to assemble too.

No assembly is required. You take it out of the shipping box as a fully functional unit. Hirsh does include metal hanging file "spacers" inside the cabinet that you will need to insert, but that is not considered assembly (and it is REALLY simple). Of course, you'll need to buy hanging files and folders (if you don't already have some) as they are not include. I hope this helps you out.

Not solid wood. It's most likely particle board. It has been a great shelf and I love it.

I am not 100% sure but I do not think it is solid wood but it is a very well constructed and very nice looking piece of furniture. For the price - a very good value.

No, it comes completely unassembled, lots of pieces in a flat box. I did not put it together because it came with some broken plastic parts. When the replacement parts arrived, they too were broken. I ended up sending the whole thing back for a refund and buying a fully assembled metal file cabinet elsewhere. Paid a little extra but saved a lot of time and grief!

Yes, it's wood. As previously stated below some I'd play wood, but exterior and tops are nice solid wood. I love that its all modular, so can change the design of my home office easily and still retain my storage and work space. Great deal for the price. The only weird thing is that the top of the file cabinet is finished in a shiny high-gloss finish, but all other pieces are finished with a matte finish. Not a huge deal, but thought I'd mentioned. Wasn't a deal-breaker for me, so kept it "as is".

Yes. The top right drawer is also a file cabinet. For the little time I have had it. I would say it is worth it. Not having to assemble was huge. It is also pretty heavy duty.

The panels appear to be a cheaper wood. The drawer bottom, back and shelf look like plywood. Top, drawer and all supports are solid wood. I am very happy with the unit I purchased. Assembly took several hours.

Wednesday AM..... Hi George..... The shelf has to be assembled upon receipt, but from my personal experience I can testify it's NOT difficult! All the screws and an allen-wrench are included ~ the pieces fit perfectly and the shelf is very solid when assembled. Real wood, not particle-board..... I'm very satisfied with my shelf and would quickly order another one if needed..... Regards, Jim

It's mostly pressed wood, but it's probably one of the most solid desks we've ever owned and it's standing the test of time very well. A very versatile smaller desk. Highly recommend!

The entire peice, including the shelves are solid wood. There is a piece that slides in the back to accommadate cords, etc that is a cheaper piece of wood. But that's it.

Mike it is made from solid wood. I purchased the first so that I could check it out. We liked it so much we purchased a second one. The are beautiful. We are very happy we purchased both of them. Yes they are solid wood. Shipped all good in one piece.

Nope, all solid wood. That said, the three sides of the bottom shelf and the bottom of the drawer are cabinet-quality plywood. And the top pieces, drawer face and doors aren't single pieces but smaller strip of wood laminated horizontally so they do look like a single board and retain the proper hardwood look.
