It's dark brown wood, not plywood at all

Its solid quality wood and very easy to put together

It was the right size and the wood is a good product.

Very nice wood

Very nicely made and solid wood.

sturdy, all-wood construction

I prefer plain ole wood.

It's well made (hard wood) but poorly balanced

Anyway, even for $80 i'd buy one of the solid wood bookshelves if it makes a difference

All solid wood.

This is definitely not solid wood, the kind of wood that comes directly from trees

Very high quality solid wood.

Looking in the holes that are drilled for the dowels one sees something that i interpret as composite - it just does not look like any kind of solid wood
