About this product
The Argos Home Apley Short Bookcase gives you a place to store books, display ornaments, or keep everyday items organised without dominating a room. It's a compact unit that fits into living rooms, bedrooms or home offices. The black finish works with most colour schemes and existing furniture. Two adjustable shelves let you set heights that suit your books, picture frames, or potted plants. It adapts as your storage needs change over time.
The wood effect finish stands up to daily use and wipes clean after dusty spells. Adjustable shelf positions accommodate taller items or create even spacing for smaller pieces. Wall-mounting is required to prevent overturning, especially in homes with children, though fixings aren't included. Part of the Apley collection, so it coordinates with other pieces if you want a matching set. Self-assembly required with clear instructions provided. Comes with a one year manufacturer's guarantee.

Ok, except...
This is a nice little shelf, reasonably easy to put together by yourself. The only issue is the back wall, which is made of three parts that are loosely joined by some cheap brown packing tape and really not very well put together, so that I noe have a very visible gap between two of the back wall boards. This part should come with better quality tape and adjoined properly to avoid having an unsightly gap.

Home for a book collection
I bought this bookcase for my wife's book collection. It matched other furniture in room and was a good size for most books. When we had built it and started loading all the books into it - we realised that it would not be capable of holding the entire book collection. So we ordered another one exactly the same. the two fit side by side perfectly in the room and the entire book collection is accommodated. The combo of the two bookcases makes an aesthetically pleasing feature in the room as well providing somewhere to store the entire book collection and provide easy access to any book we wish to peruse. All of this at super low price - but high quality looks.

Hi Rick
The thickness for the side and top/bottom panels of the Argos Home Apley Short Bookcase - Oak Effect is 15 mm and the back panel is 2.5 mm.
Thank you for using Argos Q&A.
I have but you need to turn top one upside down and securely fix to bottom one then fix to wall. But only this way as it wont support the normal way up.
Hello Cd.

No, stacking two units is not recommended as it could affect the structure and stability. The bookcase is not designed to support extra weight from another unit on top.
