    awful

    i bought this book case and within no time it collapsed, very disappointed. i also would strongly advise you not to take this down since you will not be able to put it back up without wearing out the material of the wood.

    A shelf that does the job

    The Billy Bookcase is a staple IKEA item, and that's for a good reason. It's simple, and does the job. They come in a natural wood colour, white, and I believe black. The one I have isn't the strongest and I wouldn't recommend storing very heavy textbooks on it, but its good for holding novels and simple decor items. The really good thing about them is that you're not restricted to using it as just a single bookcase. I've seen people create built in shelves, turn them into tables, turn them into the base of an island. The possibilities are endless.

    Best for its value

    Great bookcase for only $55. The material is good, holds to heavy books without bending. Shelves can be adjusted. It looks even better with glass doors, which are optional. Easy assembled.

    Hold Lots of Different Size Books.

    Great size book case with great colours. Has adjustable shelves. Easy to assemble and easy instructions are included. The book case is pretty sturdy. The price is decent for the quality. Though the back is not wood or very thick.

    Great Bookcase - Serves it's purpose well!

    The Ikea Billy Bookcase is a great standard bookcase if you're looking for something basic but modern, to get the job done. It's sturdy enough, provides plenty of storage, & has a space conserving design so it can fit just about anywhere!

    Inexpensive, so you can't expect too much.

    In my house, I have 7 of these bookcases (different sizes). They are inexpensive so they are easy to replace if something were to go wrong (which hasn't happened yet).
