Is this cabinet made out of solid hardwood (not made out of composite wood)?

I believe the pieces that show are hardwood and the hidden pieces are composite. Regardless, for the money this is a great piece of furniture. Went together easily and is solid when done. As far as color. . . it is different in different lights. If there is a lot of natural daylight, it does take on a reddish tone.

It is made of both wood and composite components. It is very well made and engineered. The piece is heavy and the components fit together tightly. It is very attractive and functional. I own and have constructed solid wood furniture and I think this is an amazing product. The finish is very good.

I'm not sure if it is solid or composite wood. The top and sides are very dense and solid and give the appearance of being hardwood. The shelves are definitely composite wood, but very study and have slots for ventilation. The unit went together without tools and with easy to follow directions. Overall it is a very nice TV stand for the price and it looks great. The two full size front glass doors allow for easy viewing of your components and povides unobstructed remote infrared access.

I'm not really sure, their website (http://www.techcraft.net/4105/detail.asp?product_id=2500) lists it as 'SOLID WOOD AND VENEER', but when constructed, except for the thin panel across the back, it gives the appearance of a very sturdy and attractive piece of furniture.

Yes it is composite. I prefer real hardwood but wouldn't want pay the price if it was. I am satisfied with the quality and ease of construction. "It is what it is."

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.

The cabinet is not made out of solid hardwood. It is a composite. Solid hardwood cabinets are much more expensive. Having said that, it is a better looking and more polished composite than I expected. I did a fair amount of research and this is a good compromise of price and quality. As some of the reviews suggest, it's really easy to put together and looks like a more expensive piece than it is.

Yes it is solid wood and extremely sturdy. I initially bought it to hold a 92 in DLP TV that weighed almost 200 lbs. it did not budge one bit. The design of it is pretty ingenious also as far as how it's put together. That all said, make sure you inspect the box for damage before you open it! My top piece was damaged and I didn't notice it until it was almost completely put together. The company that it's shipped from had absolutely HORRIBLE customer service! I asked to have my shipping fees refunded or be sent another top piece... They said I would have to send the whole thing back in order to get a refund because of the damage! It would be a pain to take back apart. I also asked for a phone number to talk to someone instead of going back and forth through email and never received a number. I like the stand but will NEVER deal with that company again! Hope this answer helped you

No, it's composite wood, but it's in fact a very nice piece for the price. I am very pleased with mine, and it's sturdy enough for me to keep a few things on top, no problem. I clean it with Pledge, too. Hope that helps.

Not solid wood. It's most likely particle board. It has been a great shelf and I love it.

The only thing not solid wood is the back of the cabinet and it is a nice grade of plywood. It is very nice and I would highly recommend it.

If I had to guess, I'd say composite. Its heavier than a product from Ikea would be, but I don't believe it's solid wood.

Yes, it seems to be all solid wood, and was quite easy to put together and sturdy.

Hi Carol, Our cabinets are a combination construction, as you will not find a 100% solid wood cabinet on the market unless you get it custom made. Many competing models are advertised as solid wood when in fact only the structural frame of the cabinet is made of solid wood, and the doors, drawers, and other panels are made of fiberboard. Our frame, doors and drawers are 100% solid birch wood! We leave the drawer interiors unpainted so that you can see exactly what they're made of. Thank you! Kitchen Bath Collection

I believe it is laminate. I am VERY happy with the cabinet...it holds a lot and is sturdy, looks very good. If you want to be sure about the wood part, this is their e-mail: service@techcraft.netGood luck!

No. It is a cardboard-like material with a wood-grain pattern. DON'T BUY IT!!! I'm so disappointed in this cabinet! Has a nice style and color but the quality is terrible and the finish chips/scratches really easily.

No it is not made of solid wood. It is made of a pressed fiberboard with a laminated finish. Very nice looking.

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

I can't say if it made of composite wood, but I can tell you it is very sturdy and heavy piece of furniture. I'm very pleased with this purchase.

Solid wood, and very heavy wood--probably a tropical hardwood (made in Vietnam). Only the drawer bottoms and the cabinet back are not solid wood. Pretty good quality, really.

Just looked and it seems like some kind of composite, but not exactly plywood OR particle board. It's very solid and has a non-slip pebbled rubber top.

This is not solid wood. But it is durable. I still have the armoire, and I love it.

No, the whole inside is wood. This cabinet if very well structured. If you are considering this cabinet, you will love it. It has lots of room and is very pretty when you put it together.

It is solid wood...but it is not hardwood. It isn't a solid piece of oak, or cherry, or mahogany, etc. The finish is veneer. I just wanted to clarify.
