Bought this along with bookshelf and console table and makes for a very simple yet stylish combo for a teenager's industrially-themed "office".  MDF/laminate but hard to tell unless you sit down at it and touch the top.  Right size for a computer and work surface that's meant to be displayed (i.e. intentionally didn't want storage to encourage hoarding of junk!) and neutral enough to go with a lot of decor.  No regrets!
