Great little boookcaseCarolineWe love this little bookcase. Good value for the bookcase.
Fits small and was at a great price!KathleenI got it on sale, but even not on sale, an excellent value for the price and does the job very well. Not deep on space, so it saves space in your room. Very skinny, so you may want to get more than one to fill the space if it’s a bigger space width wise.
Bookcase for our kid's roomRonA perfectly sized bookshelf for our son's room. Easy to assemble and looks great for his toys and books.
Great shelf for a cheap priceThrishmaIt looks good after assembling.
Shelves not adjustable TanyaQuality is decent and bookcase is easy to put together. When I purchased these, I didn't realize the shelves were not adjustable, so half the space is wasted with the books I wanted to display. (Space between shelves is approximately 12", my books are only 7" tall). I will be returning all but the one I already put together and will have to look elsewhere for something that works better with my books and within my space.

Lovely BookcaseKerry-AnnThis book case is strong and sturdy! I feel like I've put 1,000 hardcovers of varying sizes/weight and it's holding everything gracefully with no bowing of the shelves. The color and height, as well as the number of shelves make for an attractive book case. Not too large or imposing. Perfect for my children's book stash in their playroom or a cute little space anywhere in the home for books and decorative items. Very easy to assemble, but be very careful with the nails on the back to not ruin the wood and follow the included instructions. Took me about 30 minutes or so to assemble on my own. Overall I'm very satisfied.

I had planned to buyColleenI had planned to buy my favourite Billy bookcase but it was out of stock so I was pleased to find the Gersby bookcase. In the end, its slightly smaller size suited my needs better and I bought two for inside my kitchen pantry cupboard.
Good bookcase for the price,AliciaGood bookcase for the price, nice and tall with 5 shelves for displaying books etc on.
Good bookshelfWenHeight is perfect for our apartment, beautiful and simple design. Height of each block cannot be adjusted but we don’t find that an issue since we don’t have extremely large items to put on
It is goodSylviaIt is good
Great simple bookshelfKatherineGot this to replace my toddlers book/toy organizer as she's grown out of it. Got this one because it was simple and seemed to hold a lot. Have had it set up for a few weeks and it's holding up well and does indeed hold a lot! Thinking of getting a second one if she gets more books for her birthday in a few months!

Material
What is particleboard?
Particleboard is made from recycled wood and sawmill leftovers – so wood pieces with the wrong shade, woodchips and sawdust become a resource instead of possibly being discarded. We use boards for things like bookcases, bed frames, sofas and kitchen frames. To protect from wear and moisture, we apply varnish, veneer or foil that adds to the furniture's look.
