VASAGLE CUSTOS Collection - Bookshelf, 4-Tier Bookcase, Book Shelf, Open Storage Shelf, 9.4 x 23.6 x 42.4 Inches, for Living Room, Home Office, Dinning Room, Cloud White ULBC164T14

This was exactly what I needed. Just some extra book shelves to line my hallway. I bought two of these. They were on sale on Amazon for $35.99. I didn't want to spend a lot and this was just about right. For the price, it's very good quality and looks nice. They're easy to put together. The instructions are very clear. It lists a few tools you need, but it comes with an allen wrench and a screwdriver and that's really all you need. You can push the footpads in with your thumb, but a hammer might actually be handy for that. It showed a drill as well, but I didn't have any need for that. I put each together, casually, in about 20 to 30 minutes, taking my time. It's a very simple design. The inner shelves (2 of them) can be moved up or down a bit using the pegs to vary the shelf height. On mine, I have the lower area at the maximum shelf height and could just barely fit a standard college textbook in. I'm very happy with these. I've included an image of two of them, side by side.

I’m really happy with this bookshelf. It was a big upgrade from my old shorter 3-shelf one and fits my growing book collection perfectly. I was super hesitant and undecided on which bookshelf to get because I keep buying more books lol, but I’m glad I went with this one. My boyfriend put it together in about an hour and it wasn’t bad at all. The instructions were straightforward and everything lined up well. It feels sturdy, looks clean and modern, and honestly makes my space look more put together. It holds a lot more than I expected, looks adorable styled, and was definitely worth the money. If you’re on the fence, I’d say go for it—great choice for book lovers with a growing collection. 📚✨

I bought the VASAGLE ULBC166X01 6-Tier Bookshelf in Rustic Brown a couple of weeks ago, and after putting it together and loading it up with books, I can confidently say it was a great purchase. It’s got a lot going for it, and while it’s not perfect, it’s easily one of the better shelves I’ve come across at this price point. Pros: It’s sturdy: This bookshelf feels way more solid than the cheap ones I’ve bought from Walmart's "Mainstays" or Target's "Room Essentials" brands in the past. Those tend to wobble or sag over time, but this one feels like it’s built to last. I’d say the quality is on par with IKEA furniture, which is a big compliment in my book. It looks fantastic: The rustic brown finish is beautiful—warm and inviting but still modern. It’s a real eye-catcher in my living room. Smart design details: The back panels slide into place instead of needing to be nailed in, which is a huge win. No annoying nails poking through or panels popping out! Clear instructions and extras: Everything is labeled, the instructions are super easy to follow, and they even include extra screws and dowels just in case. Little details like that make a big difference. All tools included: You don’t need to hunt down a screwdriver or Allen wrench—it’s all in the box, ready to go. Cons: It’s a bit small: This bookshelf is shorter and narrower than others in the same price range (like IKEA shelves), so it doesn’t hold quite as much. It’s something to keep in mind if you have a big book collection. Limited shelf adjustability: Each tier has three peg holes, which works fine for most things, but very tall books like The World of Ice and Fire or oversized comics, like Dark Horse Library Editions, just won’t fit unless you leave a shelf out. Takes a little time to build: It’s not hard to assemble, but it’s definitely more involved than some of the simpler shelves out there. I managed it on my own, but having a second person would’ve made it easier. Bottom Line: If you’re looking for a bookshelf that’s sturdy, stylish, and well-made, this one’s a great choice. It’s not perfect—especially if you need a lot of space for big books—but for the price, it’s hard to beat. I’d give it 4.5 stars if I could, but I’m rounding up to 5 because it’s just that good. I’d definitely recommend this to anyone who wants a bookshelf that combines good looks with solid construction. Just keep the size limitations in mind before you buy!

Putting together your own bookcase is interesting and normally I have someone else put together furniture. This time I wanted to surprise my husband by getting everything done by myself. I'm over 55 so this was a little more effort because I had to sit and rest in between exertions. First you have to get everything out of the box and then you have to use a screw driver and Allen wrench to put the bookcase together. Frankly I found the instructions easy to follow and all the items needed were well labeled in little bags. Yes they actually include a screw driver and Allen wrench which was very helpful! One person can put this together by themselves but two people would make it slightly easier. The pieces of wood were perfectly packaged so there was no damage. I used those "moving men" sliders to move the heavy about 40 pound box into the living room and then I used them again to move the whole bookcase into the office. The one thing I didn't have was the hammer they suggested using to knock in the little feet for the bottom of the shelves. I used my regular hammer which I put two napkins over and fastened it all with some packaging tape. That worked. I take no responsibility for you if it doesn't work for you. :) For me it was an easy solution and I didn't have to buy a second softer hammer. So yes, I'm very happy with this and now I put about 93 books on the shelves and it is holding up well and I'm pleased to have my own little library of books to read in my office. ~The Rebecca Review

Shipping was fast, packaging was secure, and the product arrived in perfect condition. Setup/use was straightforward, and the instructions were clear. After regular use, I can confidently say it offers excellent value for the price.

The setup was straightforward, and all tools required for initial assembly are included. You are given the materials, but not the tools, to attach the shelf to the wall for additional stability. I would recommend this step, as without the anchors the shelf is a bit on the wobbly side. Why don’t I install the anchors, you may ask? I am renting and don’t want to damage my walls. I also found using the Allen wrench to build the shelf a bit rough on the fingers. Aside from that, the shelf pieces are well labeled. I was slightly disappointed to find out that the wood is OSB, and the shelf is a bit on the heavy side. On a positive note, the overall look of the shelf is quite nice—it has a sleek design and, most importantly, does the job of holding books and decorations.

I have bought quite a few pieces from this company and am impressed with the ease of assemble and quality of all. This bookcase has a hard back! Not like those ones you buy that have that paper cardboard back, but a hard woodgrained look back! I will be buying more of these. They perfectly match my other pieces. It was enforced with dowel pegs. I can't say enough about this company. I am impressed. Love this bookcase. Will buy again.

The structural rigidity of this bookcase is entirely dependent on the 8 (2inch) coarse thread scews. One is screwing into predrilled holes in "chip board". I initially snugged all 8 & found that was not enough. I knew that the chipboard holes limit the torque ... however ... I was willing to sacrifice one hole (if necessary) to make this "BOX" ... wobble-free. I was surprised as to how much more "snugness" these holes/screws can take ... in order for this box to be quite solid. Keep checking rigidity as you tighten the screws carefully.

Very easy to put together plus a few extra screws if you were to need them. I would highly recommend this product.
