Misleading depiction of productMichaelMy previous Billy bookcases lasted 30 years, so I am a repeat customer. By ordering this product I was expecting a double unit, but instead received two single units to place side by side. I thought my order had been screwed up. I was only able to clear this up after spending 20+minutes chatting online, only to be told this particular detail is in the What’s Included section of the product description. I’m frustrated by the fact IKEA has assigned a different item number to what is actually two single units. I just hope the two singles will align uniformly once they are assembled and in place.4
Exceeded my expectations!MekaiahI set up the ikea billy bookcase with OXBERG doors. I was nervous about how difficult it would be to attach the doors and have them be in the right spots but the design makes these look flawless and it’s so easy. The oxberg doors elevate the bookshelf and it looks higher end than it really is. Totally recommend5
Billy Bookcase IssuesGilbertThe dowels are too long. When you tap on the sides, the dowels push through the sides. lEAVES UGLY DAMAGES. Stay away.

Great looking blue!MaggieEasy to put together, look great! Absolutely need to be secured to the wall, and we had one that needed to be levelled, but that’s quite possibly our floor.5

Love themAnnaVery securely packed, very easy to put together and look fabulous. The only negative is if they were to get scratched or marked, I can not just rub stain over it. I will need to look into getting a small container of blue paint/ stain.5
Great value for the money,AndyGreat value for the money, easy to assemble5
Pretty satisfiedPaulaPretty satisfied with the product itself.
But would be much better if the doors had magnetic closures as they don't stay closed fully.4
Looks amazing!MaryLooks amazing!5
Works Perfectly for UsKelseyWhile the wood and color don’t really seem to hold up against bumps... we bought three of these to line a wall and act as a pantry. Works well, assembled easily enough until you went to adjust the door heights. I dislike the new shelf pegs, and think they are awkward and terrible to remove if height adjustment is needed. We frosted the glass for a different look too.4
Love the colour!MirandaBought this for my dining room, love the look of the glass doors and the colour is fantastic. Wish it also came in the short size to match5
Beautiful LibraryAnonymousA bit hard to put together but once together these shelves had added beauty to my library. Great buy too!! Available in other colours also.5
Billy bookcaseMariaI bought 2 of the billy bookcase and love them. The only problem I have with them is that the doors are not wide enough to touch when you close the doors. Other than that it would have gotten 5 stars4
