Ratings and reviews

Solid and squareFranceI'm very satisfied with the colour, sturdier than I had thought. Good thing to keep an eye on assembly to ensure doors had no gaps.5
Good productWayneGood product. Was well packaged. Delivery people let the boxes fall over when they were delivering them and they were not damaged5
Beautiful and functionally perfectMelanieI loved the blue color of these shelving cabinets as they are in my living room. They were easy to put together and all predrilled holes and hardware matched up and fit perfectly. They are very tall and do require stabilization to the wall on top. I love these 2 shelving cabinets side by side and am completely happy with my purchase. I wish IKEA had a store in St John’s, Newfoundland but ordering online was acceptable and shipping time was also.5
Best item I have boughtRickSturdy cabinet and a great price5
Nice book case but could use some improvements TrinaNice looking book case. Just beware that when you put the doors on the case wants to tip forward so securing it to the wall is necessary. Also the instructions say to anchor it to the wall but they don’t include drywall anchors or screws for that. Would be helpful if they came with that. 4
Love my billyJenniferBookcases are beautiful! Love the blue!! 5
Billy JacquiIt is a beautiful addition to my home. It was easy to assemble and the colour is so pretty. 5
Yarn Containment System TracyI probably should have given this fewer stars because it’s not perfect. It’s not big enough! I guess I’ll just have to knit more or buy another Billy. I definitely wanted the glass doors. I need to be able to see all the beautiful colours. Bookcase is great. I like the colour (blue). 4
Beautiful Cabinet in a classic colourDiannaEasy to put together and attach to wall. The lower back of cabinet is cut to go over floor trim. The colour is perfect, a classic dark blue that really compliments a room. Only wish I’d gotten this sooner to enjoy longer.5
Great book case! Anonymous reviewerI love this bookcase. Bought it two years ago and it looks great in my living room! Unfortunately, I wanted to add more pieces and you can’t find anything else of the same colour in this collection! The colour is really beautiful and it’s disappointing that nothing else is available.5
Amazing shelves EsmeraldaI thought I would put cook books and only a few nic-backs on these shelves 🤔 But they turned out amazing with dishes in the dining area .. And the colour so perfect . Phenomenal bookcase they completed the look in the room .5
Not as expected SoodakshinaPoor material 3
Very niceAanishGood built5
Stunning!HeatherWe bought three of these for my home library and I can't say enough about how good they look. They're classy yet different enough to serve my bookish tastes well and I'm very happy with them.5
Love itKarenI love how this unit looks. I am using it in my kitchen for extra storage and it exceeded all my expectations. 5

Looks great for a great value HeatherEasy to assemble and looks awesome! 5
Beautiful blue bookcase LornaI love Billy bookcases, and particularly in this dark blue colour. The glass doors add a bit of class to its basic look. I will purchase different door knobs as those provided are pretty basic, but that’s strictly a style choice. 5
Beautiful bookcasesCarolynI love, love, love how these turned out. I bought 3 of them and have them together as a wall unit and couldn't be more pleased with them. We get so many compliments. They were super easy to put together and the delivery staff were on time, super helpful and very friendly!5
Great bookcase in a unique colour. SeemaI would definitely buy another, instructions were easy to follow, assembly does require two people. The only concern we had is that we didn't want to use the brackets. In the instructions you have to put brackets at the top we tried to skip the step because we wanted to move the bookcases around, but the moment you add the doors it's too heavy so it starts leaning forward. Once we added the brackets the bookcases were sturdy and stylish. 5

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.
