Reviews
Style over substanceAnonymous reviewerI’d been longing for this stylish white bookcase to keep my books dust free and to match my newly painted white hallway. I donated by pure wooden Ikea bookcase to a charity. What a mistake that was. While this bookcase did its job for a short while, the quality of the thin MDF was no match for my hardbacks.
Two of the shelves have buckled and the backing has come away. I actually have less books on this than I did my previous bookcase. What a shame as it is a very attractive looking piece. I won’t ever buy any more pieces from Ikea now unless they are pure wood. If you only have a few items to display then this might be ok for you, but I’d like me you love your books and want to keep them contained and dust free then I’d say shop elsewhere.
Beautiful & very functionalAnonymous reviewerStores a LOT of books. Not flimsy.
Perfect for storing just about anythingAnonymous reviewerThese deeper Billy cases are brilliant. I used the storage space in this particular unit for my air conditioning units. The next one I've just purchased will house all my winter sweaters. It forces me to fold them up neatly. 😁
I would like to see these deeper Billy cases in a choice of colours. Although the back hardboard paints well to fit in with any decor colours, I would imagine could also be lined with wallpaper too.
Billy the display caseAnonymous reviewerBought the deeper bookcase, with glass doors. Perfect for a display cabinet, that is now home to my son’s Lego collection. Have added rechargeable remote controlled strip lighting from Amazon, to illuminate and enhance the display.
Pity the 40cm depth isn't available in more coloursAnonymous reviewerDecent enough bookcase (or in my case, display case). However, the instructions are wrong for fitting the back panel (it only folds in half, not into three sections).
The biggest drawback is that the 40cm depth version is only available in the standard cheap looking white. The 30cm deep ones are available in loads of colours, but that's not deep enough for my needs.
They’re a classic now Anonymous reviewerThese bookcases (with doors) are great and sit well in the room. I lined one wall with these and some open shallower billy bookcases behind the TV. It looks great. They’re good value for what you get.
Perfect display unitAnonymous reviewerBought it to store crockery in my kitchen so gets open and closed a lot. Looks great and is attractive into the bargain
Billy ShelvingAnonymous reviewerWe have had billy bookcases for years. This new purchase of billy shelving is much better for storing larger items as the shelves are 50% deeper than the billy bookcases.
Excellent ValueAnonymous reviewerThese bookshelves with glass doors would work well in any room and I have put a set of two in both the study and utility room. They provide spacious storage, with four moveable shelves and one static one. They arrived well packaged and in good condition and seem sturdy enough for self assembly, low cost furniture. They must be attached to a wall for safety.
Over the moon!Anonymous reviewerI had open shelves with all my stuff on beforehand, with an 8 month old I wanted it all hidden and out of reach. I collected this from store and was surprised at how easy it was to build. Didnt take too long at all.
Fantastic quality and adding the doors make it look so much more sophisticated.
I can fit so much in it, and being able to adjust the shelves is fab.

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.
