About this product
The Argos Home Maine Bookcase gives you practical storage for books, display pieces, and everyday items in a slim, upright design. It's a straightforward tall unit that fits neatly against walls without eating into floor space. The wood effect finish with PVC coating protects against marks and wipes clean after dusting. Five shelves in total provide flexible storage, one fixed shelf gives structural strength, and four adjustable shelves let you space things to suit what you're storing. The black finish works with most room schemes and keeps things neutral.
The slim depth maximises space in compact rooms or narrow alcoves where deeper bookcases won't fit. Adjustable shelves move to accommodate taller books or smaller paperbacks, decorative items, or storage baskets. Wall-mounting fixings included for stability, especially important in homes with children. Self-assembly required, instructions and all fixings provided, two people recommended for easier handling. Manufacturer's one year guarantee included.

Improved quality
It’s better quality than the one I bought several years ago.

So good I bought a second one
Setting up a guest bedroom, but we have too many books all over the house, so I bought a bookcase to compliment a double bed with a black frame, and this bookcase was perfect - so much so that I bought another one to fit right next to it. They look fantastic, take up very little space and cost a fraction over £100 for the pair. What a bargain.

Very decent, good value for money.
Very easy to assemble, it took about 30 minutes total by myself. The wood grain effect is really nice, it has a bit of texture and depth to it, and I'd say the colour is accurate to the photos.

Great budget bookcase
Happy with the final look, easy to assemble and looks great. Great for the price and doesn’t look cheap. Worth it if you are on a budget or even if not, It’s better than some higher price products I’ve got before.

Prefect for our requirements
These are perfect for paperbacked books, which is what we needed them for. They are flat packed so you get what you pay for, and the panel pins for the back panels are tricky, a couple went through and marked the shelves internally. But with books on you can’t see it. They meet the requirements we needed them for so happy overall
