We purchased two. Solid wood.love the color. Pleased with how the finished products look. 
30-min build time is only accurate if you’re a furniture-maker. We have been assembling items, furniture included, for over 40 years and we each took 3-4 hours. One was missing pieces. One had a damaged drawer -didn’t notice until we were almost finished. Both had poorly pre-drilled holes that caused slight imbalance in the finished product. We fixed that issue by attaching bumpers to opposing legs.
