Upon first looks, the wood seems fine and sturdy but definitely is not suitable for anyone older than 2 years old. My wife sat on the bed with one of our toddlers at the time and the side wooden rail which holds the mattresses frame snapped in half. Was not easy to fix and/or easy to return. No return was granted in fact. Would not recommend. I owed the bed for less than 6 months when it happened

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.

It is solid wood... Not sure if it's US lumber though. Distributed from California if that helps. Probably Canadian lumber.

not sure. it is solid wood and looks pretty nice... it was purchased for a friends apartment, so it's not in my possession.

It is compressed wood - Not one of my favorite materials to have, however, I will have to say that it is well constructed and looks like a very nice piece of furniture. We are very happy with it. If you get it, just be sure to follow the directions exactly as you put it together. It may look a little "flimsy" to start with but when you are all finished it all fit very well and looks very good.

My husband (was in custom cabinetry and construction for years before his now IT career) agrees it is part wood (lightweight, perhaps hickory) and part particle (the heavy part, due to the adhesive, in the detailed inlays). Total weight approx 75 Lbs. I received this item about two weeks ago, and as Amazon had promised, with REINFORCED Shipping materials -- the legs were reinforced/stabilized via removable stents (for lack of terminology)... and extra padding was wrapped around it too. I love it; looks rich, not cheap in anyway. Everyone has complemented it. :)

i believe it is a cheap wood, like pine, with a black laminate over it. i gave them to my daughter more than a year ago and they are still very stable.

It's really thin, crappy wood, probably particle board. I wouldn't buy this... You'll be very disappointed in the quality.

they are pretty heavy wood. the only place that the wood is a little flimsy are the back panels. It did arrive with a couple of scratches, but the seller made it right without any hesitation. It's a very heavy piece of furniture. We replaced the butcher block top with a slab of granite. No problems. Some assembly is an understatement, but it's very solid when done.

well, it's definitely not wood...mine is at work, so i can't look at it right this minute...whatever it is, it's not wood, and it's real lightweight. Not having it to touch right now, I'm thinking it's made of some sort of light metal. Looks pretty good, btw. I like it.

Seems that Ashley and I disagree about the wood....I don't have the booklet anymore so I'm not sure what it said about the type of Chinese wood it is......maybe it's Chinese cedar. Sorry for obfuscation.

The wood is natural color. I don't know what kind of wood it is because was not in the specification. Might be spruce, just guessing, but it looks good.

I'm sorry, I don't remember but I don't think it was wood as this would not be in line with the price. It was a gift for my daughter's friend so I never had it in my possession for long.

I love mine. Very nice quality. Wood is solid. Not exactly sure what type it is with the black finish.

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.
