It is the lowest grade plywood. I hate it and wish I could return it but I don't want the hassle and pay for return shipping. Again I bought a head board that goes with this and was off in measurements. Now there is a gap I need to hide with pillows. I bought 3 throng from wayfair it's more of a disappointment than a great deal. I don't think I will be using them again. IKEA is waaaaay better .
