all natural wood, or veneer?

It's boards of real wood (white pine?) that have been glued together and shaped and sanded. They are sturdy and look fine for casual use.

it's all particle board. The veneer isn't very thick and scratches easily. I am very disappointed with this piece.

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.

I am guessing that it is not hardwood, not for that price. I would have had to look for that when I was putting it together. If it is veneer, it looks and feels good. It's not plastic overlay. I am unable to find the company's web sight right now. I would buy this again. Be careful not to force or break any assembly hardware, there are no spares.

Veneer top with smooth surface. Real wood appearance. Non glossy finish. Rustic looking without being rough.

Particle board & wood veneer. Very heavy. Have had for a year. Wears well. Looks good but not all wood. Wish it was.

I think it's a wood veneer, but it's heavy and looks very good. The back is made of wood and not particle board or plywood, and the whole piece is heavy like solid wood. It just looks like a nice piece of furniture.

It appears to be real hardwood veneer over some kind of lesser wood. Not particle board or MDF, as it is not that heavy. Nicer than something you would get at "wally world"; but, not what I would consider high-end furniture. Good value for the price.

MFD with veneers. I saw the other two responses (cheer/mahogany and some kind of hardwood) and bought the table. All but the legs is MFD. Very disappointed!

Sure, it is a natural wood. It seems very porous - you may want to prime it first.

Due to stain finishing on the wood, I could not tell you what kind of wood was made. I believe the top and bottom boards were made of veneer. I love this curio. If you ever order one, please check for damage upon delivery. You need to open the package before sign off.�

The previous answers to B.Y.'s question are ambiguous. Even particle board is predominantly wood. I'm asking if it's natural wood or is it just sawdust and glue?

It's wood veneer, but does NOT look cheap at all...looks like wood, and has a lovely grain to it. It is quite HEAVY, and took both my husband and I to move it into place!

This desk is hardwood, not veneer. It is a bit heavy. . . This was a deciding factor for me. . .

I believe it is wood and wood composite, not a plastic veneer. The finish on mine is very smooth and well done. I believe it could be painted easily, particularly with a high quality paint like Behr all in one paint that includes a primer. I have no plans to paint mine, but if I did I would not even use 000 steel wool to rough the surface- I'd just remove the knobs and do it.

It is veneer. Both sides are finished. The back has a wood grain look fiberboard maybe. It's not the same as the sides but not just unfinished either. It's a nice heavy piece if furniture. We bought two plus the desk. We like them. Hope that helps!
