Is this item bare natural wood? I want to stain it to a dark color that matches my desk and shelves.

No, it is finished. My desk is dark, too, but I really like the contrast. Besides, I keep it under the desk when I'm not using it. You'll love it. I have one at work, too, and I got one for my co-worker.

I don't think it's natural wood, but pressed wood, and the bottom is not stained, but the top has a shiny coating of some sort on it. I love it just the way it is, but if you wish to stain it a different color, then you can just sand the top - that should work.

It's made of particle board with a thin, wood-like laminate on top So, it won't stain. Sorry

It looks like real wood to me. Th stain is dark but I can see the wood grain. The bottom panels in drawer look like thin plywood but the legs , desktop and external panels look like solid wood. We have had it almost one year and it looks good and is holding up fine we just use it as a desk to hold a laptop , monitor and a lamp we r not very rough on it.

I stained it but I used a cinnamon color to match my son's existing furniture. I got (minwax I believe) a rub on stain and it was EASY to do & not very messy. They have tons of colors & I picked up at my local Menards. Rubbed it on with a rag and that was it!

it is a natural wood but it does not need to be stained or painted. I suppose it could be but it's not rough or splintery.

The background looks black, but it very dark brown. It works with my black table base. The parts that look lighter have been brushed with a light brown stain that tends toward red. If you look closely, you may see rust or reddish varnish on the lighter parts. It definitely works with my mahogany china cabinet.

It is a fake wood-grain laminate, but it's so dark you can barely see the wood-grain. The laminate is good though if you ever spill anything on your desk, easy clean up and doesn't ruin the wood. This is a pretty heavy desk, and I've liked it so far (had it for about 5 months now).

Yes it's wood. And stained to look old and of a good hard wood. Don't know what it's made of. Looks good up on the wall. I painted the center hammered silver. It came black

No it is not unfinished wood but just not stained. But it has a nice clear finish. Really goes with any decor from Modern to traditional.

It's not yellow. It's white. I stained my using a dark, cherry-like oil based stain. It looks nice, but the parawood doesn't have nice graining like maple. All-in-all it's not a bad piece of furniture for the price.

Not sure as to the wood though I believe it is mahogany. The stain is a dark cherry or mahogany with red felt. The photo included is pretty accurate as to appearance actually.

I don't believe it's real wood, it's like a pressed plastic'y wood. The color is dark brown/blackish. It's been on our wall in the office for a while with quite a few things in it. So far it's holding very well and we are happy with it

If by natural, you mean raw as in you can finish it yourself, no. The cabinet comes finished ie:stained and polyurathaned in a "honey oak" color. I believe you can get it in a darker color as well.

Very dark brown.Also, two separate desks is possible, but stability would lack. If you desired to use this as two separate desks, I would recommend they be 'booked ended' by adjacent objects (cabinets, shelves, etc.).I hope this helps.

The cabinet is made of oak wood but the stain is walnut. If you search you should be able to find an oak with a natural or oak stain finish. I have also seen cherry finish for this product.

Hello: dark cherry finish - I stained mine even darker to match cabinets and they looks awesome!

Yes, you can stain it darker, but you'll need to sand every bit of the lacquer off it first, which is a BIG job. If you don't get every bit of it off, the stain won't adhere to parts of it, and it'll look bad. Now my hair dresser has one just like mine that she painted a solid color. (I like mine better. Hers looks "bumpy.") Really, I think you'll like it natural. I was gonna paint mine white, but when I got it, I changed my mind. (It matches my kitchen butcher block counter tops beautifully.) It's a nice piece.
