It appears to be just painted a wood color on top. You would probably want to cover it with something if you put a coffee maker on it. BTW, I have had this for some time now and I love it!

Hi, I have my microwave on top. However I put a safe grip microfiber lining on it. To prevent microwave to slip.. it's a great item. Easy ro assemble following the instructions. .

There is a finish but not a strong one. I have had it for over 2 years now and it is still in pretty good shape. It only sustained damage to it when I moved about 6 months ago and a friends had put tape on it to keep the drawers closed during the move. When the tape was removed it took some of the paint with it. It also does have 1 small stain on top which I am not sure what it is from....but I am sure it is more of a fault of my own then the product as I do believe this product is very nice and I highly recommend it. I keep mu microwave and toaster oven on it and have no issues with heat with it. There is a finish but not a strong one. I have had it for over 2 years now and it is still in pretty good shape.

It is probably a veneer of some sort that seems to be quite durable. I have a microwave and a 5gallon water dispenser on top of this and my coffee maker on a matching companion piece from the same line. Both have seemed to hold up to heat and spills, including a disaster from the water dispenser.

Hi Andrea,We have put our microwave on top on of the"cupboard". Also, it does have a low grade finish. So far, everything is working out very well. :)

The top is finished/sealed, but I have no idea about the finish's durability. We have no appliances on top.

Yes, however I did put a clear acrylic stain on the top, this will keep it nicer longer.

The finish has not flaked off on mine. I use it primarily for steaming things in the basket. I have used it for frying a couple of times.

I have not had this issue. I've had mine since September, I don't use it daily though. I have only hand washed. I have used it in the microwave. I do find that tomato sauces stain the finish slightly, but this is true of most plastics. I line the interior with a little parchment paper to prevent that.

we have a brushed stainless finish...not high shine... it goes nicely with our stainless stove and microwaves...overall, the faucet is great, a very towering/impressive appearance, easy to use, works flawlessly so far (1 month)...recommend this item without reservations

I haven't put any finish to protect top. Still holds up nicely. Hope this is helpful. Have island for almost a year now.

The top and sides are black. I love mine. Best microwave I have ever owned.

In my use of the product it takes out streaks and makes refrigerator surfaces look smooth and streak free. I have never used it on anything coffee stained. I would suggest a scratch less soft scrub, then the stainless cleaner would bring back the shine.

Mine just has red on the top, it looks like they added an amazing design to it. Mine is just plain, but I still use it and haven't had any problems with it.

Have not experienced that. I use mine for coffee and water and have had no problems with staining or other issues.

I always use mine for coffee, so the bit of staining doesn't really bother me. I think washing it right away after each use is the way to go if you use it for multiple types of beverages.

We returned our crib due to it being damaged so I have no idea about it's finish. Sorry I can't help.

Yes, it has a finish and stain, but it's kind of a dull, primitive-looking finish. I really like it.

It does have a light colored finish on it. It could easily be sanded and re-stained dark if you wish..

It has a very dull finish...like a stainless steel appliance. Does this help?

It is finished with a light oil based stain. My guess is that you could paint it if you used some thing like Rustolium spray paint.

Yes it does have a mirror finish, very sturdy and easy to clean. It also has smooth edges, just like old military mess trays. It can get scratched though but it is pretty tough.
