Billy ShelvesJo-EllenI needed more shelves to organize my ever-growing scrapbooking supplies, and these fit perfectly in my Billy bookcase! I love that additional shelves are available for this product — they’ve made it so much easier to create organized, functional storage in my craft room.
Extra shelving AngeliqueI needed these for extra shelving for fragrances and I’ll be ordering more for shoes. Ikea is the best!
Billy bookshelfCarrieFits perfectly and easy to put together
Spare shelvesRalphBought extra just in case I needed them in the future
STILL GOODRodneyI have purchased many (hundreds?) of shelves for Billy units over the last decade. I am obviously very satisfied if I keep returning to them.
Nice ShelvesKennethI was impressed by the finish on these shelves and appreciated that the supporting inserts were included with each one.
Just like the other sheves 😁😁😁Douglas👍👍👍👍👍👍
The Fabulous Billy ShelfAlanThis shelf is very white. It is also extremely flat. It was cut to the exact dimensions I needed to fit my Billy bookcase. It also included pins to mount the shelf. Amazing.
Great addition!RobinHappy to add more interior space to my bookcase. Very good quality.
VersatileLaurelI like that the Billy bookcase and components are still around--as I'm constantly changing configurations.
Extra she.vesJanThe shelves fit perfectly into the Billy bookcase we already had purchased a few years ago.
Good shelf!!!PaulPerfect fit and easy to increase the capacity of my billy Bookcase!
Not the same pegs - new ones are awfulAnonymous reviewerI'd love to know why IKEA didn't send the same metal pegs that have come with every other IKEA shelving unit I've ever purchased. The new ones will not stay in place. Thankfully I have a few left over from another project. Would not recommend these shelves unless you can find the original type of pegs elsewhere.
Great additionPaulThe shelves fit well and are a great addition to the shelving system.
Color Doesn't MatchAnonymous reviewerThe shelves are fine but the wrong color for the bookcase we bought the other year. We'll be keeping them but it is disappointing. Fair warning to anyone buying to match.
Shelf for BillyDonnaI recently purchased the Bill bookshelf, which is very sturdy and I love that you can add additional shelves. I really like the hidden pegs on the shelves. I use this in my craft room to hold cardstock and stamps.
Deceptive product imageFernandoI wanted to DIY a small monitor stand using this shelf as it's one of the few shelves with a small footprint big enough to fit a monitor's base on top.
The images on the site had me believing that this shelf had paper foil nearly all around. Upon arrival at the store, however, all the shelves (all colors) were paper foiled with its respective "colors" over the top and the front ONLY. So, the dark brown shelf has a light particle board texture and appearance on either side.
In retrospect, it makes sense, as these shelves would be inset on a Billy bookcase, but the image on the site depicts the same shelf with coloring on the side.
Dark brown wood color looks cheapA.C.I have a few of the older Billy bookcases in the Black-Brown color which I always found very elegant looking, especially with the glass doors. We decided an extra shelf would help so I went online to order one, only to find no more Black-Brown! So, because we really need the extra shelf, I ordered a Dark Brown (the new color), hoping for the best. Ooo but no, not only is it a terrible match, but this fake wood brown veneer looks AWFUL. So cheap. It looks like a Walmart shelf. Feeling depressed now! I've loved my Billy bookcases for years & now I'll never be able to add to them... --> To IKEA: I was even planning to get the extender shelves on top since we have very high ceilings! Please reconsider and bring back the Black-Brown color. It was the best thing y'all had going. What a shame to discontinue it - and leave sooooo many customers hanging. :(
Billy bookshelf AnnEasy to assemble. Perfect for my needs.
A color catastrophe, saved by a roll of tapeCatherineWe needed more shelves for one of our Billy bookcases, but by the time we got around to ordering them, our chosen shade of brown-black had been discontinued! We took our best guess, based on the colors on our screen, and chose dark brown oak effect. The shelves arrived precisely on time and in perfect condition, but noticeably lighter than their new neighbors. Fortunately, I had bought a roll of brown-black duct tape when my husband and son put in the top of one of our original cases backward. I covered the new shelf fronts with this tape and now no one who sees them would ever suspect they're the wrong color. All's well that ends well!
