Do you include things like particle board, MDF, plywood etc? Is there a line? And if so, what is it for you?

If it's on a product like a piece of furniture, then it means any part not specifically labeled as "solid wood" is some sort of composite material.

e.g. "solid wood table top!" = legs and frame are made of the cheapest shit we could find
