One person said this is wood & one says its plastic, which is it?

Hi, craftylady! I believe it is manufactured wood. There are little plastic pieces that secure the top but they are quite secure. Like all the cat items from this company it is well thought out and well made. The little pillow on top is well-made and washable, retaining it's color and fluffiness. I JUST washed one because sumbuddee threw up on it--kitties! I love it! So do the kitties!

I think it is MDF board which is saw dust pressed together in glue to form a board and a venier sheet coating glued on the outsides of the board that makes it look plastic. It is very durable and my sisters cats love it.

Looks and feels like wood to me, and the description also says it's solid wood. There are plastic hinges and plastic circles around the small holes. It is solid and the cats use it often.

We have the all black version and it is hard to tell whether it is wood or plastic. I believe it is the former with a matte finish. It is not metal.

It's a very hard plastic, I think. It's not wood. The knives are very nice. I've bought two sets for us and 2 sets as a gift. We wash them by hand. I've also bought 4 Accusharp knife and tool sharpeners which work very well. This is the number one rated knife for 10 years by Cooks Illustrated. We love ours.

This one is plastic. I have had it mounted for several months and found it very durable.

It's plastic on the outside, don't know what is inside--could be cardboard.

It is wood. Put together properly it's sturdy and a really nice addition to a room.

It looks like wood but I think it is a laminate. It is hard to tell though so don't let that dissuade you from buying it.

I am not sure. My son put this together for his daughter at Christmas in 2012. She loved it and still has it. Lots of children have played with it and is in good shape. If I had to guess I would say it is all wood---that is how it appears to me.

I think it is probably laminate wood. definitely not plastic. I think it looks nice. I have my big new tv on my fireplace hearth and wanted it just a little higher. No I don't make fires!

I honestly am not sure.. I would like to say its solid wood because its very sturdy, and very heavy, and for the price for something child sized, it better be solid wood! Lol we've had it for about 3 years and its still in perfect shape!

It is not plastic. It would be considered a pressed hardwood, totally a wood product and we love ours. Our 45" HD LCD TV sits on ours in our family room.

Honestly, I can't tell. It doesn't look like plastic though. We've enjoyed it, it is very nice.

Its Rubber wood, but we had to return it cause it had a huge chip on it and it was missing some hardware. :-(

I think it's plastic. It's been great for us so far, but we've only had it installed for 6mo. So far, so good and handsome too

It is not wood. It is not press board . It does not appear to be plastic. I do not know what it is but it is strong and well made with wood appearance .

It's wood. May be a wood composite. Not plastic or anything of the sort - not mine anyway. I've enjoyed mine, it's quite durable and functional. Have a heavy printer on it and it shows no stress whatsoever. Hope this helps.

It's at home right now, and it's been a while since I put it together, but I believe it was wood. It was very heavy and solid...well made. Cheap mirror, but I expected it to be, and the kids don't care. :-)
