Dresser is particle board. It looks good for the price but I think I would have gotten a nicer one if I had known the quality. Took me over 4 hours to assemble and some of the hardware was labeled wrong, like the cam locks and brackets. I was also frustrated that the drawers and back of the dresser didn't have pre-drilled holes. It just created extra work. I also couldn't finished the dresser by myself to put the back on without a helper.
