The desk is made of a heavy composite material. It is very sturdy and well put together. I am an (almost) 50 year old woman who put this together by myself; it took an evening to do the hutch and 3-4 hours the next day to assemble the base! My daughter helped me put the hutch onto the base, but that was my only help! I love the desk and the storage is phenomenal! Good luck!

The top, drawer/cabinet faces, legs, and bottom are wood. Everything else is composite.

It is heavy like real wood but I know it is not oak. Not sure of what kind of wood it is.

The construction is well made but light weight. Outside edges is light oak about 1" with white fiber material in each panel on one side held together with glued to hold the panel in place. It is quite sturdy for I move it around without a problem. The wood maybe pressed on oak finish, but I can not tell.. Hope that helps.

Solid Oak. I should add a we use this table in our community room which is used for individuals with disabilities. We simply added height to legs, for wheelchair access, however the table is perfect, durable, strong, easy to care for and solid wood.

Doesn't seem like particle board. Probably hard woods. It's plenty sturdy. I do use coasters for drinks though.

Walnut Hollow is the name of the manufacturer, not the wood type. The wood for the box is, indeed, basswood.

Here is a link to the oak finish. I think it's the closest to natural you will find in this brand. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B008HQPRKC/ref=mp_s_a_1?qid=1362487566&sr;=8-6π=SL75

I'd call them medium oak - they are not light. They match my walnut floors well. Hope that helps.

It's bamboo. I'm not sure how many plys is has though. It has more flex to it then a normal board though.

Mark, I am not expert, but I feel this is not made from the composite wood. Finishing and weight of the item is makes me feel like made it from hardwood.

Not sure. Looks like white oak or hickory. Hopi hard wood. Have dropped a few time with no damage unlike hard plastic that breaks. I use to ward off coyotes when walking dog. Works great!

I'm pretty sure it's Maple. But Oak and Maple are generally similar wood styles as far as I am concerned.

Not sure of the exact wood. It works well with Oak and Maple. These come from Malaysia.

Some of the parts appear to be a type of oak, but there are also plywood & particle board. It is a beautiful piece of furniture, difficult to assemble comes in three boxes all weighing over 70 pounds. I considered suicide before my entire family pitched it to help.

Cheap wood. LOL it's very soft, cedar perhaps? Very very soft. We have reinforced every inch of it with treated wood.

Not sure on the type of wood but seems to be solid construction. Only non wood item is the back its a hardened cardboard/press board.
