Dear all,
I am hoping someone can help. We currently rent a property and when we moved in it had fitted waldrobes in. We are desperately looking for a bedside table but cannot seem to find the right wood of what the waldrobes are? We've tried all of the range in Ikea and tried a light oak today but none match. Can anyone have a look at the pictures and possibly help please?

Light oak melamine faced chipboard or vaneered MDF .......You may have trouble sourcing this as lost of companies make it but all slightly different.I would say its not even a real wood vaneer after having a 2nd look so it may well be Oak Effect/print..0

Beech was too light when we looked & here is the light oak one which we bought today:

Beech is redder and a tighter grain
The colour and grain of the image suggests that it is maple0 -
grain looks like american white oak, overall it looks like a made up melamine laminate, so it is no particular type of wood, its what ever effect the manufacturer calls it.0
