Change of colour finishAnonymous reviewerHave bought many BILLY products over the recent years, oak finish always, always matching. This time the product finish is not the same. Have given the unit away to family, no use to me.1

Billy Anonymous reviewerI have three of these bookcase already in my living room with I bought an extra one for cds and books.5
Revised design isn't helpfulAnonymous reviewerDisappointed that assembling and installing isn't as easy as it used to be! The new cut-in at the bottom doesn't match our taller skirting board, so I've had to juggle will battens etc.3

Great little bookshelvesAnonymous reviewerThese small Billy bookshelves fit perfectly either side of my piano and are just right for music and CDs (in CD racks). Really pleased with them.5
So UsefulAnonymous reviewerI have several of these units. They are so useful for storing books, jewellery and makeup, in fact, anything you can get in boxes. Some are floor standing and some on top of other Ikea units (securely attached to the wall) and I am happy to say I now know where everything is and the house looks tidy! 5
Versatile BillyAnonymous reviewerModified this to enable horizontal wall mounting. Removed plinth and reinforced long edges with aluminium angle to add strength and prevent bonding. 5
Billy is an old friend!Anonymous reviewerBilly is a firm favourite - over the years I've purchased many varieties of this range. They fit in any room can be used for a number of different purposes, can be added to with doors. Very easy to assemble. They are strong and hard wearing5

Perfect sized bookcaseAnonymous reviewerEasy to assemble bookcase which fits a tight space really well. Fairly solid and good adjustable shelves to accommodate different sized books. Good light oak finish. 5

Design your own BILLY bookcase

Want to customise the look and functionality for BILLY that suits your space, needs and taste?

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.

Designer thoughts

Designer thoughts

"When I got the assignment to design a simple, functional and smart storage for books, I couldn’t have imagined that BILLY bookcase would wind up in so many homes across the world. I remember being especially pleased with the adjustable shelves and the depth of the bookcase – perfect for books. We were also able to transport it in a flat pack - an idea I was actually first to develop. The bookcase is one of my favourites and I hope it will be around for many more years."

Designer Gillis Lundgren (1929-2016)
