Vida Designs Cambridge 3 Tier Low Bookcase, Black Wooden Shelving Display Storage Unit Office Living Room Furniture

Brought this bookshelving unit for my son’s birthday and it’s really easy to put together great quality and sturdy to hold a lot of books good price and great choices of colours

We bought this to sit on our hearth when we had our old gas fire removed. The fire removal had left a large cemented area which we didn't know how to cover up. This book case was perfect for that job. It was the perfect size to sit on the hearth and we have put ornaments on it. Our hearth and wooden surround were a slightly lighter colour and this book case colour contrasts with the lighter surround perfectly. You didn't need to, but I used some PVA glue on the holes where the wooden dowels (round pegs) went into & along the joins just to give the book case added strength. Like I said, you don't need to and the instructions don't mention this but it's something I like to do on these flat packs. The screw holes were all in the correct positions which was a relief and I would advise having 2 people to assemble this easily, although you could try on your own but would take longer. I think my son and I took around just under 30mins to complete with a cordless screwdriver. One small nice touch was the way the counter sunk screws were covered. It was with small round stickers that were wood effect stickers which you peel off and match the wood grain of the book case.I gave this 4 stars as the top piece of wood, at the rear thank goodness, was slightly damaged at the corner like it had been dropped. But it was at the rear so I decided to keep it as we needed to cover the cemented hole where the fire used to be. If it didn't have the small damage I would have given 5 stars no problem. Looks very nice though.

Yes it’s a nice bookcase, just what I wanted, and fits in where I wanted it to go in the bedroom. The only thing is that tall books won’t fit on, as the space between the shelves isn’t big enough, other then that it’s lovely, seems quite well made, and would recommend anyone buying it.

I needed a small bookcase at a similar height to my office desk to extend the work surface around me (creating a sort of L-shaped area) and provide storage underneath. At 75cm high, this little bookcase does the job perfectly and fits in fine in my home office.Everything was packed safely in the box, with protection between each item and all items are clearly labelled. This makes assembly straight-forward, although worth carefully looking at the diagrams before committing to ensure you've included all the bits (I missed the metal 'F' retainers on the back initially). Care should be taken when positioning the nails on the rear panels as I can see how these would split the wood if off-center of the wood underneath- and don't use power tools on the screws for the same reason. But I didn't have any problems and the back being in three pieces means that there are no joins visible from the front.Many people said the stickers don't match, but for the oak style, they are brilliant - you can see them only if you look carefully and at a casual glance are completely invisible and hide the screws very effectively.Overally, considering the low price, these are a very solid set of shelves which do the job great, assemble easily and match up to the measurements shown. I would be happy buying another one if needed for a similar purpose.

The parts arrived very well packaged. Construction was fairly straightforward. This is a nice little bookcase. Unfortunately, the shelves are not adjustable - it would be useful if at least one of them could be fitted at a different level (as with IKEA's bookcases). So the books have to be standard paperbacks unless you lay the books on their side.I have taken a star off because of the lack of flexibility with the shelves, and another star as I think this bookcase is quite expensive - I got it for £25.99, which I still think is a little too much!

Easy to assemble. Great value for money. Arrived quickly and was undamaged. Holds around 45 books.

Easy to assemble and not very heavy either. Sturdy. It's small but does the job. Perfect for my figures. Do check the measurements on the product page as I miscalculated.Good value for money.

This bookcase easy to assemble, looks great and is good value for money.
