As other reviews suggest, this is a very small nightstand, but it is the size listed in the description, and just the size that I needed. The front, top, sides, and drawer sides are solid wood, but the back piece and the bottom of the drawers are made of a very thin material. The stickers used to identify the pieces do not come off easily, though they can be hidden inside the unit. The legs feel like mdf wood, although they are a different color -- dark brown. The drawers are not on sliders, they just slide in and out of the wood, which I think is a sloppy design. The most surprising thing is the color and distressing -- instead of a pine yellow as in the photos, it looks like a whitewashed/muted/bleached color, and the distressing is more prominent-looking than I expected. It was fairly difficult to put together, and not everything was machined precisely. In general, I think it is a cheap-looking piece, even for the low price.
