5 Shelf Bookcase - Room Essentials™

A: Robin was right-on with her response. She was not suggesting purchasing shelves separately.

A: Hi Hannah - Thanks for stopping by! This bookshelf is great to keep you organized, however you cannot buy additional shelves for this. We hope this will work for you! - Katrina

A: I did. went to the home improvement store and bought the hardware and pre finished shelf. I cut out into two shelves out of it. cost about $12.

A: Menards sell shelves in difference colors that would work in the bookcase. You may have to cut in down a little to fit and if you don't have extra pegs you may need to get those too.

A: These bookcases (all of them) are safety inspected with the number of shelves they are sold with. It’s VERY rare to see additional shelves offered for these kinds of bookcases. They have liability issues etc. if you want to add additional shelves it’s a kind of ‘take your own chances kind of thing’. I’ve done it before … go to Lowe’s and buy a thin board and have it cut to size. Always put heavier on the bottom for stability.

A: It's so cheap you could just buy another bookshelf and use it for the shelves.

A: I am going to buy the Rubbermaid 12 in. x 24 in. White Laminated Wood Shelf from HomeDepot and saw down the length a little less than an inch and get it to fit in as best I can. It's under 7$ and just need to purchase the little stopper things.

A: I went to Home Depot and had shelves cut to fit this bookcase. They also have the little round shelf holders to hold up the shelves inside of the case. Itr cost about $8.

A: I might be making some enemies here, by suggesting this, but you might be able to get shelving elsewhere.

A: Take one of the shelves to Home Depot and have them match it and cut them to specification

A: I bought a simple mdf board from home depot that just happened to be the perfect size to make 4 extra shelfs the same exact size and ones that come with it. Shelf pins from amazon, paint. Cheap

A: Not a helpful response at all from Target. Additional shelves definitely need to be offered for this case.

A: Target, please offer the option to purchase extra shelf-boards with these bookcases! For smaller items like compact discs etc, this could be a good-value media shelf, really better than for books

A: I agree with Hannah, I love these shelves, I have two of them, but I would really, really like to be able to purchase additional shelf boards. As tall as these bookshelves are, I could easily fit six or even seven shelves into the case and fit more books. Please, Target! Make purchasing additional shelves available!

A: Sell us extra shelves, Target! I'd buy at least a dozen. Would be way more convenient than lifting 4 heavy boxes with the entire item just to get 12 more single shelves. This is a NO BRAINER

A: How tall of this white collection 5 tiers book shelves ? Above 6 feet tall or more before I purchase it fir my white shelves pantry foods kitchen

A: Hi this is Debra I need the target handyman to come in my house to fix white 5 tier collections book shelves I will pay $39.00 for that. My husband George can’t fix he is handicapped. Tell target handyman to bring it’s own fixing items with him.

A: If this item is about 72” tall, I don’t see where the box dimensions are smaller. Unless the side panels have to be put together, instead of arriving in one piece, it doesn’t add up. Hoping someone can clarify this so I can be sure it fits in a car. Thanks!0

A: @Sue, yes you need to put the side panels together. They’re split in two in order to fit in the box better. You can see the seams in the photos

A: I watched the video and it shows that the sides are two pieces that is why the dimensions don't seem to add it. I have put together other ones similar to this and they have held up very well.

A: No truck needed I took one home in the trunk of a Camry.

A: You do not need a truck. It fit in my Honda Civic.

A: Hi Lee - Great question! The box dimensions are approximately 12.32" L x 39.57" W x 7.2" W. We hope it will be the perfect addition to your stylish space. - Taylor

A: I was able to use a standard 5mm shelf pegs for these. You can purchase them from any hardware store. 1/4" pegs are too big.

A: Great advice from Laura to pick up those replacement pegs at the hardware store. The 1/4" pegs are indeed too big. Just keep in mind you're going to have to get metal 5mm pegs. Wooden pegs don't seem to come in that size.

A: If you order 5mm pegs, they will fit.

A: Question: Do they label the boards for assembly now? Tried to buy these before, but no parts were labeled making assembly extremely difficult as directions state by A,B,C Answer: Hi – Good question, while we do appreciate your interest and welcome your questions, that information is not available to us in Guest Relations. I’ll be sure to make your comments available to the appropriate partners within our organization. You can also check with your local Target for further assistance. - Dianida

A: No they are not labeled, just put a few together myself. Still easy enough, just seperate and keep A+B and C+D together (C and D have the large holes for the 4 connecetor screw pieces.

A: They aren't labeled, but the instructions come with pictures of everything.

A: Sherteen, this is the 2nd time you did not answer the question the customer was asking. You gave finished dimensions, while they were asking boxed dimensions. Box dimensions: 12.32" x 39.57" x 7.2"

A: Hi KB - Each shelf can hold upto 30lbs and yes sturdy enough to not tip over! We encourage you to check out the reviews for others opinions. - Kristine

A: You should definitely anchor it. If I remember correctly it's only one hole. the book case itself isn't heavy but could be dangerous if it tipped over with books or decorate vases on a child.
