About this product
A straightforward bookcase that gives you room to organise your books, display collections, and keep everyday items within reach. The Argos Home Maine keeps things simple with open shelving that suits most living rooms, home offices, or bedrooms. The wood effect finish works with a range of interiors without fussing about. Two adjustable shelves let you move things around to fit taller books or larger items as your needs change. The frame stays solid and supports your belongings reliably. It's a practical piece that does the job without taking up too much space.
The wood effect surface wipes clean after dusting, and the smooth finish handles everyday use. Wall fixings come included to secure the unit safely, keeping things stable when it's loaded up. The compact width fits against walls or between furniture without dominating the room. Straightforward assembly required, all the bits you need are in the box. Comes with a manufacturer's one year guarantee for reassurance.

Bookcase
Overall the book case looks nice all, but the shelves are pretty poor quality. If you are buying thiis to put actual books on, you may be disappointed as the shelves start sagging almost instantly. I've put several of these over the years and sadly the build quality has steadily declined.

Affordable and great looking mini shelf!
Love this one. Bought to go in the middle of two larger ones! It looks great! The finish is beautiful and it looks just as pictured! I found that the shelf is very stable and stands well on its own without me attaching to the walls. I can move the shelves about if wanted so love that it is adjustable! This one was very easy assembly, took me 30 minutes! And could do it on my own without help! It fits a good amount of games and hard back books! I am impressed!

Very nice bookcase
The bookcase looks great. It was bought for a spare room to put childrens' games and books on so it's not going too be over-loaded but It seems fairly strong and not at all rickety. The grey finish is very smart. The box is heavy so best to have 2 people move it. I managed to assemble it on my own following the picture instruction booklet. Really pleased with this purchase from Argos - amazing quality for the price.

Good bookcase for the price
Easy to assemble, sturdy, affordable, I've bought many of these bookcases from Argos over the years, loaded them up with heavy books and they've been fine. Would recommend as a budget option.

Very reasonable
A very reasonable bookcase. Very easy to put together. Just the ticket for my needs.

Grey bookcase.
We bought this bookcase to sit in a corner of our dining room. We chose grey to match our dining room. The assembly was easy just using basic hand tools. The finish was excellent and I would recommend this bookcase to any one.

Great, basic, bookcase.
Great bookcase at a great price. Really easy to put together. I do wish they would make the back board the full width so that you have a bit more wriggle room with the back pins but it's a small price to pay against what is otherwise a really great, basic, piece of furniture.
