Is the desk solid wood? If not, what material is it made from?

I'm not sure but if it is not the solid wood, it is a good quality desk at least. The top and legs are possibly solid wood.

ONLY the legs (4) and support bits on the underside of this desk are solid wood. the rest is particle board with a veneer. if the table/desk top used to be solid wood, the desk i just received DID NOT. maybe this is explains the discounted price.

I think that the top and legs are probably solid-ish wood (like a thick veneered particle board) The drawer is not.

It IS solid wood, but it's predominantly a light wood over which a dark veneer has been applied. It's sturdy but with four legs and no drawers, it's not as solid as a desk would be. Still, I'm sitting at mine that I've had for a year, right now and I like it just fine. I use it every single day - just not for real heavy stuff like a heavy monitor or something like that.

Don't think so considering the way it crumbled. Don't know what it's made from.

Only the four legs are solid wood. The rest is some kind of hard pressed paper pulp with a shiny surface where its colored brown.

Yes. Not real wood but looks good. Keep in mind this is a tiny table and I actually now use it as a desk because it was so small. Chairs are horrible to put together.

It appears to be solid wood. It's certainly not that pre-pack sawdust and glue stuff. It's good and solid and despite there being no assembly instructions included, I still managed to put it together within 1 hour. The finish is a little thin and scratches easily, but its nothing some walnut oil can't fix. Over all, I'm very pleased with this purchase

Not at all! We are very happy with the desk. The piece is very heavy and looks expensive! I almost bought another that was 3x the price but was solid wood, glad to have saved the money! All of our friends are commenting on how beautiful the pieces are.

Hi, Yes, it is solid wood. Also, it is reddish. Very good deal for the price!

All, repeat, all of this desk is made of 3/4" rubberwood, except for the bottoms of the drawers, which is 3/16" solid-core plywood with rubberwood veneers. The sides, backs, top, etc are all solid, 3/4" wood and the feet are glued-up from the same.

The answers listed here differ, but be clear that this desk is not entirely solid wood. The top and nearly every piece that you see from the front are solid wood as are the feet and all drawer pieces but for the drawer bottoms. The sides and the large pieces on the left and right of your legs when you sit at the desk are engineered wood. This is a solid desk, but it is not all solid wood.

It is solid wood and has a beautiful finish. It is very well made. I love it and have gotten lots of compliments on it.

Yes, it is solid wood. I have checked, and my wood pattern is completely different than the one in the photo, suggesting that there is a natural variation in the product.

Real wood. It is also sealed and painted, but it is definitely too heavy to be particle board. It's a nice, simple desk with the sturdiness of something much more expensive/substantial.

Yes, it is solid wood. I love my table set n my only complaint is that it scratches easily. I recommended using placemats or a tablecloth to protect it.

My husband says that the shelves are particleboard. The desk top seems to be wood. It is a very good looking desk. I've had many compliments on it.

The desk is laminate covered particle board. Legs and drawer handles are metal. While this desk is particle board, it is very heavy and sturdy. I was impressed with the quality.

I don't know if it's solid wood throughout but it is very well built! We have been very happy with it.

Hi there. It is solid wood, including the drawer. It really is very nice, and as we were shopping, we found comparable tables at $199. Hope this helps.

It is plywood. It is a heavy construction. I have had the desk for over a year and have no complaints.

I'm quite sure it is solid wood as it's very sturdy and a bit heavy. I'm guessing it's a hardwood but it's merely a guess.
