What is the cabinet made of? Real wood or vinyl on pressed wood?

I think it's real. If not, it sure looks & acts like it. We are very happy with the quality & looks of it & we love using it for our master bedroom cabin in the mountains. It heats the room up quickly, has 2 heat settings, love the remote, & the 'flames' look great too.

The cabinet is made of wood. I bought this one for the depth, and installed it 4 years ago. It's a nice cabinet!

The wood is pressed wood. It comes in two boxes that you have to put together. Was not happy, sent mineback.

I'm not an expert, but I just took a look at the back panel and I'm pretty sure it's pressed wood, rather than cardboard. I like the stand very much. Good luck with yours.

It's definitely pressed wood (particle board). Wasn't as nice as I thought it would be. Faux granite, particle board -- pain in the a$$ to put together.

It definitely looks like wood (I really like this cabinet inside and out). It's mitered on all four corners so it looks like it's a wooden cabinet and not molded plastic material.

Compressed wood. It's pretty heavy though. It has adjustable shelves so you could use it as a bookcase. The shelves in the door are not adjustable though.

I believe it is pressed board. I bought mine in 2013. I just took a shelf out to check and the short edges that you don't see are unfinished and show that they are pressed board. I couldn't tell about the rest of the boards, but I looked inside the holes for the metal pegs on the vertical side boards that hold the shelving; it looks like those might be pressed board as well. I'm not certain, however. But the grain of the wood and quality of this product is very good--not like some other kits for shelving that I have. The outer pieces all look like real solid wood--no edge is unfinished that I can see (can't check underneath now). The only complaint I have is the backing, which is a rather flimsy thin piece made to look like wood (typical in bookshelf kits). But it is inset slightly (nicely designed), with the top and side boards extending slightly out and a (pressed board) thick, finished horizontal cross piece in the middle to help brace the back; if you have this against a wall, it really doesn't matter about the backing. The hardware seems sturdy (shelving pegs, for example, are metal, not plastic). Overall, I am really satisfied with this purchase and would recommend it to anyone that would like some nicer shelving kits for storage.

The whole cabinet is solid wood. I believe the veneer is on the sides, front and top. Only part not wood is the glass on the doors.

No idea. Since it is not an expensive item, it may be pressed-wood, but it looks good, and is sturdy. I am very happy with it.

Hi Ken, I would go with what Phyllis had to say. It's a pressed wood, but very sturdy for the cost! Easy to build too. I'm quite satisfied with all 4 of mine in the laundry room. I actually built them all my self. Hope this helped!

Appears to be cardboard. The whole thing is pressed wood, I think. Still, good for the price

It is made of pressboard. It looks like real wood, but it is that sawdust and glue fabrication that is so prevalent nowadays. Despite that, it is well made and sturdy. I'm quite pleased with it--heavy, too.

As stated in the description, it,s wood with some veneer. The veneer parts are the door inserts and the back.Its a solid and sturdy cabinet. I am very satisfied with it.

Hi Dody. This product is made of plastic. If it was to be used on a regular basis it might not be a good buy for you, but other wise it is a very good and nice cabinet. Good luck, Rocky

Made of pressed wood. Very sturdy and slide artbin boxes great. No other brand though. Has to have a lip on the lid. Not sure on measurement of the sides.

Sure would be nice to get a straight, no-BS answer to this question. Is the MDF covered in a real wood veneer, or a fake one such as vinyl?
