It's crap. I've got one. The wood effect is like printed paper, It's rubbing off in places! Do not buy this junk.

The problem is that here in the real world, you can't advertise a 'Oak Desk' if it's not an Oak Desk. Nowhere on that advert does it mention 'Oak Effect' or 'Laminate' construction. The original advert on the Range site, does mention that.

I believe this is the same as my desk, so definitely wood, it's heavy and thick

Looks like mdf, but if it's oak veneer its probably worth the pric

oak effect equates to a laminate with some sort of wood underneath but not actual oak then??
if so for me cold
found answer from amazon questions look below and beware
The wood is vernier oak effect. Be careful though, if you buy one, because the vernier effect is quite easily removable by sticky tape as i found out
and another answer
Chip board with oak effect

I don't think that it is solid wood. Looking at the pictures I can't see any end grain which suggests that it's laminate.

So it's a FAKE-OAK desk.
So this was never worth £159 if you ask me.
Compare with an actual oak desk:

Which comes assembled by the way and weighs a ton!
Buy once. Buy right.
