Billy with glass doorsJudyLove this. Lots of storage space. It is a little narrow but that is actually one of the things I like about it as my space is small. The glass doors are very nice but I do find they do not fan out as far as I would like when opened. Still love it!
nice productKentEasy assembly - fit perfect for the spot i had.
Great and small spaceJanice SueStores of variety items, close, Books fitness equipment, tools.
Absolutely perfectBonnyI have an old home where next to nothing fits normally. The Billy was a perfect fit, like it was made to fit the space it went in. Assembly was easy. The design is perfect for storing my inventory for farmers' markets. I'm all organized now, and it's a fantastic feeling!
Beautiful!KarlaThis was easy to assemble i love the quality and adjustability of the shelves, i certainly think you need to secure to the wall though! Love love love!
Solid Bookshelf. Excellent Value.JonathanThis is a solidly constructed bookshelf and is easy to recommend. Assembly is straightforward and quick if you have two people. Keep in mind that the package does not include the screws or drywall anchors needed to secure the shelf to a wall. The bottom of the shelf doesn’t have pads or adjustable feet, so it might rock a little bit if the floor is not perfectly flat.
Perfect!NinaLove it! The color is beautiful and is exactly what I was looking for
Exactly As Expected!SarahSturdy, solid, and the faux wood looks surprisingly better than I expected. We purchased some of these to go in tandem with some PAX wardrobes as a build in storage unit (don't do that, new PAX are garbage) and these BILLY bookcases are the best part of the whole thing. I would absolutely consider buying these again in the future.
It's just what I was looking for!AnonymousEasy to install, good finish, and a great price.
Good valueJamesGood quality at a fair price
Love love love it!! ❤️❤️❤️ShayI was searching for a new bookcase and found that other companies had some nice options, but they were far too expensive. I had completely forgotten I had an IKEA account, and during my research their bookcases stood out as the best value by far.
After browsing the IKEA website, I chose the Billy bookcase, and I couldn’t be happier. The delivery arrived right on time, and everything was in perfect condition. My daughter and I put it together easily, and it looks absolutely beautiful in my home. I love it! It’s sturdy, versatile, and very easy to assemble. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a bookcase or shelving. I am extremely happy with the delivery, the product, and the price!
I bought 3 moreMichelleI now have 4 of these. The first was great, but in putting together the 3 additional ones to make a corner unit, there were several hollow spots in the wood(MDF). Slightly disappointed.
Great bookcase for small spaceRachellePurchased this bookcase for a small bedroom remodel. Looks great and the delivery experience was excellent.
