About this product
The Argos Home Maine 2 Drawer Bookcase keeps your living space organised without taking up too much room. It's a tall, straightforward design that works for personal libraries, decorative displays, or a mix of both. Four shelves give you space for books, photo frames, and plants, while two drawers below hide away board games, paperwork and bits you'd rather keep out of sight. The wood effect finish blends with most room styles, and the slim depth suits alcoves or tight corners. Simple assembly included, everything you need is in the box.
The shelving is practical and flexible, one fixed shelf for structural support and three adjustable ones that move to fit taller items or stack more paperbacks. Both drawers slide smoothly for quick access to stored items. The tall frame maximises vertical space without spreading too wide, so it fits where larger storage units won't. Wall-mounting brackets must be used to secure it safely, particularly in homes with children. Part of the Maine collection for coordinated room layouts. Manufacturer's 1 year guarantee included.

Customers Say
Sturdy, good quality bookcase with ample adjustable shelves and useful drawers. Assembly can be challenging due to unclear instructions and some misaligned parts. Drawers and handles sometimes have quality issues.

Misaligned drawer holes
Drawer Left is listed on the Panels Page as Part 16 and incorrectly shown in the diagram as Part 15. It also has misaligned holes for attaching it to Part 8 aka Drawer Back. This means our drawers look dreadful and we can't use them properly. We bought 2 of this bookshelf. Both bookcases had the same issue.

Affordable and great looking shelf!
I bought this as a cheap and affordable book case and am so happy with the finish of it and look within the room. It was easy assembly once I got help to carry the boxes which were very heavy! At the end the shelves are adjustable so you can have them wherever you like which I loved the option of choice! The drawer knobs were tricky to tighten but look great now in. The drawers glide in an out easily! The final product is stable and I havent yet attached to the wall and I feel safe.

Bookcase
After 4 hours of trying to put together it went to the tip. The screws were not long enough to fit the shelves to the side, every time we thought it was fixed and moved it, it fell apart.
