About this product
The Argos Home Islington Tall Oak Veneer Bookcase gives you a practical storage solution for displaying books, picture frames, ornaments or curated collections in your living room or bedroom. It's made from solid oak and oak veneer, a natural hardwood that's known for its strength and durability. Four fixed shelves provide plenty of space to organise your belongings and showcase personal items. It arrives fully assembled, so you can start using it straight away. Its tall, narrow design fits neatly against walls without taking up too much floor space.
Each shelf holds up to 50kg, so you can store heavier books and items with confidence. Anti-tip wall fixings are included for safe installation, particularly important given its tall profile. The natural wood grain adds subtle variation to each piece. Its design works well as part of the Islington collection, so you can pair it with matching furniture pieces. Comes with a 2 year manufacturer's guarantee.

Just perfect
I bought this a couple of weeks ago and I am really pleased with it. The quality is great and as it was already assembled, I just unpacked it, slid it into position at the bottom of my stairs and filled it with some of my favourite things, along with some of my grandmas old books

Beautiful and excellent quality
We have an alcove in the guest bedroom. It fits perfectly and matches the chest of drawers. It is very well made. The best part is that my husband didn't have to assemble it.

Beautiful. Looks more expensive than it was and is solid and sturdy. Came assembled too which was a bonus!

Great prebuilt bookcase
Really nice quality bookcase, feels solid and the instructions were easy to follow for attaching safely to the wall. I bought it when it was 1/3 off so am very happy but don't think it's worth £300.

Solid and robust
Nice looking well made bookcase. It's not high-end workmanship, but solid and robust. It looks good in my room. One big strong bloke can remove the bookcase from its packaging. It comes ready built with wall fittings.
