Don't waste your time or moneyLisaI spent hours trying to make this work. I believe it to be impossible. Brackets bend with any type of movement. I eventually had to throw them out and come up with a new plan.
great valueErinworked the way it should
Okay could be better TrevonIt does the job but feels like an after thought.
Not as easy as other ikea things to get right and feels a little more flimsy
A little confusing to put the bookshelves on, but it worked out in the end.EmilyThe review title says the most of it really. I did have a little confusion with putting my bookcases on it but after a bit of work it was in the right place. I'm glad it makes my bookcases feel more stable.
Great valueIndraThese shelves were the perfect thing for the space we had. I only wish they came in more different colors.
awesomeSydnii love my book shelves so much! i have 4 so far and over 160 books and counting. they are easy to put together and the directions are simple. also not too heavy- the box itself is yes but i was able to move it from room to room once it was up without any issues. other than that, i'm in love with it. thanks ikea!
HelpsEricaThese help to get the correct angle for the corner bookshelf and connect the bookshelves together. I wish the hardware was a little more robust. I used this for mine and despite the sides being attached to walls, I still felt the corner needed reinforcing after using these pieces. It’s also important to line up the bracket with the bookshelves exactly so you don’t damage the bookshelves.
So satisfied TrishThe Billy bookcases fit perfectly where I wanted them. So easy to put together, especially to make a corner unit.
Useful and durableJaneThe galvanized BILLY Corner hardware arrived with our two orders of corner bookcases. The corner hardware serves its function well to connect and secure three singletons together. Friends and guests complimented our two corner bookcases and planned to have their own, too! Those two corner bookcases transformed our sitting room to a nice game room. They house all our board games and war games. Gamers simply pick what they would like to test play.
Bending brackets AmyHard to adjust on carpet and the smaller brackets bent very easily. I had hoped for a seamless look but there is a gap now towards the top.
Billy Corner Selves-GreatAnonymousLove this corner cabinet. Easy to put together and lines up perfectly. Putting the Ytberg accent light above brings warm & a classy look.
Can't Get it FlushCaitlinI love my Billy bookcases and was really hoping that this corner hardware would allow me to make the most out of a big blank wall that I have. However I cannot seem to get the three bookcases to line up so they are flush where they meet on the sides. I've checked that things are level and it doesn't seem to matter. They start out flush at the bottom, but the tops have gaps on both sides starting mid way up that prevent me from getting that built in clean look I was really hoping for.
LOVE them!!MargueriteI bought three of the Billy bookcases - I thought I would use them in the corner arrangement that I first fell for, but ended up putting them in a straight line. I absolutely LOVE them!! They hold my yarns and a host of other craft components. My friend saw it and told me it looks like I have a store - she thought it was great! I can now see what I have and I don’t get caught double- and triple- buying anything.
Served it purposeKristanThese brackets have allowed the bookshelves to appear as one unit. It was a little difficult lining things up just right to get them in place, but it wasn't too bad.
Clean lookAshleighThis is easier with someone else to help install this. But I could still do this alone and it looks good and clean. It is a great tool to turn 2 or more Billy bookcases into a beautiful corner piece.
Value for the price.CarolWe were looking for a compact entertainment piece that could complement our room. The Billy fit the bill.
Great Corner shelf unitJustinThe shelves were easy to assemble and connect. They have a sturdy design.
Barely adecuateVitinoThe parts are flimsy and hard to install, definitely a two-person job.
Perfect bookcaseJohnfits great in the corner of the room, easy assembly
These are FrustratingKristiI built the whole 3-piece Billy case alone, with ease. Then when it was time to get these in place, it became so frustrating. I wish there was an easy way to screw these on to the middle case so theyd stay in place. Maybe if you have carpet, its easier? I'm dealing with tile floors.
I agree with another review that stated their case was wobbly & had a gap between cases, instead of a seamless look.
Someone with more skills could put something together to make this a better product.

Material
What is steel?
Steel has unique characteristics when it is stretched and shaped since it remains strong. It provides strength to everything from skyscrapers and cars to bed frames and outdoor furniture. The steel industry is moving in the direction of more energy-efficient production and stronger steel qualities. It doesn’t lose any of its properties when recycled and today steel is one of the most recycled materials in the world.
Function solution
Use the corner
