Very beautiful and functionalRachellI purchased these along with the glass door to fit in among the larger Billy bookcases for my book collection and they are perfect. Easy to put together and holds about 100 books.
So practical!JackThe quality of these Billy bookcases is great, easy to assemble and look great!
Most versatile MelissaLove the versatility of these bookshelves. The possibilities are endless.
Awesome shelfMiyukiMultiple units installed in the garage help with shoe storage. Another unit installed with a door in a bedroom. Versatility and great aesthetics!
Nice doors, but do not fit properly as a closed in cabinet.DeniseThis does not work on The Billy Bookcase 804.927.82 for top and bottom parts as shown in some pictures to have a closed in cabinet. Can only be used for bottom section. It is literally 1/8 of an inch too big. We tried re-adjusting top and bottom doors but had to shave off part of the bottom of the top doors to have them fit.
SuggestingYoungI bought it for my vinyl records and overall happy with the build quality and functioning but feel one disappointing aspect. It would be more great if the center divider is more upper or lower then I could make five shelves for completely suitable for vinyl records( typically 12~13 feet height). It has only four and two small areas which could not store vinyl records.
Very CuteLanaeEasy assembly
Mine was a lemonDonaldSides were warped the dowels were too long, had to clamp the bottom and the shelf and side wall still won’t come together
This was easy to put together JudyThis shelf is perfect for storing my cardstock
Love it!AmandaEasy to assemble and perfect for my place. I'm so happy to finally have a tall bookshelf. We used a standard Billy in the center with two of these on either side. It looks very stately, I'm so happy!! Will probably look great if we end up moving it elsewhere in the house as well.
Not as good as the originalPamI purchased the "new" version of the narrow Billy bookcase & just finished assembling it. The quality is not as good as the original; the vinyl wrapping on the edges of the shelves shows along the top edges & cheapens the look compared to the original version. It is possible the vinyl edges will loosen when books are added/removed to the shelves. Would've been easier to engineer the wrapping to end on the underside of the shelves. Of course, I was adding this unit to several other bookcases of the previous version and have had to place near a corner so the substandard quality is less obvious. Wish I'd had the chance to see it in store before I ordered; would've used something else. Don't know why Ikea chose to cheapen the quality & appearance of these units - I think function, appearance & durability is still important to consumers and will definitely view "new" products in person before buying again.
Really like the billyTrevonPut this as corner billy and helped organize some games that had been on the floor
