I absolutely loved RobinI love how easy these are to put together. Have purchase several. They worked great for my plants and a few books etc. the slim design made them perfect I enjoy the openness of the shelving. My only issue is the price hike. I honestly paid $20 a shelf when I got them. They were such a great deal and quick fix. I recommended them to everybody. Very affordable. As they are not really waterproof I have a few that I want to replace and that price has me at a pause. I see a lot of people comments are about the price and I hope ikea really take notes on what customers are saying. I’ve been buying ikea furniture for over 20 years. The prices are getting crazy hiked up especially for basic stuff. 4
Super easy and efficientJi HoonPerfect for first-time Ikea furniture makers and super strong to hold up a bunch of books. It also looks sleek!5
Very sturdyAninditaI am in a small apartment and this is perfect for my makeshift pantry.5
BookcaseLizzetteGood price and quality. Easy to assemble.5
My favoriteJessicaI love this bookshelf. It's lightweight enough to easily move but has the same capacity to hold full shelves of books. I bought one from the as-is section years ago and have since bought at least four more. Super easy to assemble, looks very nice.5
WobblyKatieThis is a wobbly bookcase that needs to be anchored to a wall. The shelves bow considerably if you actually put books on them. Very easy to assemble.3
Great qualityAnonymous reviewerLoved this bookshelf. Excellent quality for the price.5
Perfect for a display pieceMattThese were the perfect, cost effective bookcases to purchase multiples to use to display items from my collection.5
Light weight and easy to move and take apart.AltheaI have bought multiple of these over the years. The 24$ price point...was on point for the quality. Lets face it, its make of saw dust and glue with a wall paper overlay. It sold VERY WELL at That Price Point! I now find myself searching FBMarket Place for the same product at their original price. The 75% mark up is REDICULOUS! Im sorry to say but it is No Longer a value. I own about 12 of these. They are also in my storage unit because they are easy to move and take apart. I love them in my craft room because they are narrow and only 9 inches off the wall. Im hoping Ikea gets over its self and lowers it back down to a more reasonable price point.5
Excellent value!AlanaI bought four shelves when they first came out nearly ten years ago, but for some reason I got rid of one of them. I'm planning to buy another one soon!5
Poorly Written InstructionsAnthonyIt is a nice bookshelf that can help make your space look tidy, but putting this thing together is a nightmare. Very difficult to line up some of the shelf nails on your own, and step 11 has you nailing very dull nails into your wall, and what’s more is that there is no nail hole to connect the wall connector to the bookshelf itself so unless you are willing to get a drill and make holes yourself (which will break the fragile wood), the nails will not go in. It’s ultimately a waste of time and money for only a partly decent looking shelf. I’d recommend getting another shelf that possibly has clearer instructions that will let you know if an added tool like a drill is required.2
i. Like this so much.BobbiIt has enough space for me to put my stuff 5
AmazingTabithaGreat and easy put together5
Looks good and easy to put togetherDwightThe title says it all. The dark coffee brown, near-black color looks quite nice and it was easy to assemble. I liked it so much that I bought one, then another, and finally a third one.4
Slim design bookcaseClaireThis is so cool, fits right up against the wall and my son has all his characters displayed on it. Great piece of furniture.5
Good for the priceDarylNot the sturdiest but looks nice and a great price!4
Go-to before the price hikeTonyThese were my go-to for a cheap shelf before the price went from 25 to 40 dollars. 25 was a deal, but 40 is kind of crazy. I would’ve given 4 stars when they were $25. I had plans to buy several more but now I think I won’t. I wouldn’t trust them with a lot of books, maybe just a few on each shelf. I use them for stuffed animals and small Legos2
Best Book Shelf Thus FarJessicaThis is a very simple, very effective book shelve without taking up too much space. We have purchased 3 of these shelves and have no issues with them at all ! Will definitely purchase another in the near future as our book collection grows.5
Not worth the extreme rise in price!LauraThis was a great buy when it was $25. There's no way it's worth $40, though. I was hoping to buy more but not at this price. You can better shelves at other stores for that price.2
Very good EmeteriaGood size and more space 5

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.
