does this have actual back boards or is it just that tacky thin backing?

Mine has not been putTogether. It's been in storage. I'm sorry I am not able to help!

This is actually a pretty good piece for the price- no cardboard like backing. I really like this.

It does have a back board, heavy and solid. Im very happy with it and the desk.

the back is black almost cardboard type material.......it's ok but for me only to have against a wall, I would not put it showing

No, the back is plain black. You could draw your own board with a white sharpie. ;)

Yes its just stickers. The backround is the color of the wall you are putting it up on.

not looking so good from the back. You would need to get something to make it look a bit nicer. The top rung is bare particle board, and the bottom is just some light cardboard painted the same color. Looks good from all other sides though.

The back is finished, but it has 2 boards that have to be nailed onto the back (small nails). If you used a black marker to hide the heads it would look OK I believe. Mine is sitting in the middle of the living room (bought it for my daughter but her house isn't ready yet) & I never noticed it until I actually LOOKED at it.

I agree that the backs are about as thick as the mat. Sturdy, but not terribly thick. Not as thick as mat board I've had cut for me at local stores. They are nice for a low cost matting system.

The back is pressed board. mine is in the bathroom and has held up beautifully!! It holds a lot more than I expected.

No. the back is a black board type material and you can see the screws and brackets that it is put together with. But the front is beautiful and good quality wood and well made

It is thin pressed board. It is much like cardboard but a lot stronger. This desk is heavy, very heavy. The backing is solid enough that it holds good, but thin enough to let you cut custom holes if you need. Hope it helps

Backing is hard (wood) with black felt cloth glued to wood back. You can't pin to the back as it isn't a padded soft lining.

It's press-board. Just a cardboard back. It is not exactly what I would call sturdy. I am afraid to move it from where it is currently sitting in my home.

Nope. No border or frame. What you see is what you get. But, they are great boards.

Mine a fabric-y non skid type back. The "non skid" works ok. Seems Eco friendly to me. I cannot believe my kids have not destroyed this yet. It looks great!

Its basically a glorified cardboard backing. It works good for me because the back of my shelving faces the wall (of course:). It has held up well and served me well!!

The back is totally thin cardboard. The rest of it is pretty solid. I'm guessing not solid wood but it's a SOLID bookcase (could not move it by myself)

The back isn't finished like the sides. You can see the silver screws. It is a thin piece of board that is of the same sheen as the rest of the piece.
