Q: Can I get additional shelf boards?
A: What the. Width of this item
submitted byJethro - 11 months agoA: 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.
submitted byGreensAndNettles - 4 years agoA: It's so cheap you could just buy another bookshelf and use it for the shelves.
submitted byRobin - 5 years agoA: 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.
submitted byBaking Momma - 4 years agoA: I might be making some enemies here, by suggesting this, but you might be able to get shelving elsewhere.
submitted byMelaine7677 - 4 years agoA: 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
submitted byDeborah - 4 years agoA: Just a suggestion on what I’m going to do is buy another bookcase use the shelves and then use the bookcase as a wardrobe by placing 1 or 2 rods in them.
submitted byBrandy - 7 months agoA: 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.
submitted byLizzy - 5 years agoA: 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
submitted bySuperdeleted - 3 years agoA: 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.
submitted byTiny dot - 3 years agoA: Extra shelves are easy to get at your local handy store (Home Depot). They will cut to size. Get extra pegs for the shelving and go crazy with adding as many shelves as you’d like!
submitted byAli - 7 months agoA: 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
submitted byKatrina - 6 years agoTarget staff supportA: 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
submitted byScott - 3 years agoA: Take one of the shelves to Home Depot and have them match it and cut them to specification
submitted byMiki - 4 years agoA: 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
submitted byFlorida Man - 3 years agoA: Does this come with tools?
submitted byTaby - 7 months agoA: 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.
submitted byLina - 5 years agoA: 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!
submitted byKatie - 5 years agoA: Not a helpful response at all from Target. Additional shelves definitely need to be offered for this case.
submitted byJamesKight - 5 years agoA: Can I purchase more shelves and from where?

Q: How big is the actual box before assembly? Planning to order for pick and need to know if a truck is needed. Thank you!
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.
submitted bybellasnana - 5 years agoA: 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
submitted bySue - 5 years agoA: No truck needed I took one home in the trunk of a Camry.
submitted byLotus - 5 years agoA: You do not need a truck. It fit in my Honda Civic.
submitted byShannie - 4 years agoA: 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
submitted byTaylor - 5 years agoTarget staff supportA: Box is small, can fit in the actual seat of any car. About 36 inches at its longest point.
submitted byTC - 9 months agoA: 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.
submitted byDeborah - 4 years agoA: @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

Q: What size (diameter) are the shelf pegs for this book case? I misplaced a few in my last move. (Otherwise, I can attest to having had this for 10 years now and it has held up very well. Great choice for a base product to fit someone just starting off)
A: Hi Rena - Thank you for inquiring about this bookcase. If you are missing components of this order and need replacements, please reach out to us via our online chat service or call us at 800-591-3869. Thank you for asking and have a great day! - Geoff
submitted byGeoff - 4 years agoTarget staff supportA: 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.
submitted byMarcus - 4 years agoA: 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.
submitted byLaura - 4 years agoA: If you order 5mm pegs, they will fit.
submitted byJenny - 3 years agoA: I called Target CS they were unable to send me replacement parts.

Q: 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 etc.
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.
submitted byDavid - 3 years agoA: They aren't labeled, but the instructions come with pictures of everything.
submitted byActual useful response - 2 years agoA: They aren't labeled, but they do have pictures and instructions. Usually wrong. Like they show a picture of upper A and B and write lower C and D. I'm about to slit my wrists.
submitted byHP - 9 months agoA: Question: Do they label the boards for assembly now?

Q: Are the shelves adjustable? Or do they HAVE to go where the picture shows?
A: Hello Rogard - Thank you for your inquiry about the 5 Shelf Bookcase. The Bookcase has adjustable, open shelves which make it easy to fit and display your favorite items. We hope you enjoy this! - McKenzie
submitted byMcKenzie - 4 years agoTarget staff supportA: Hi - Yes, the shelves are adjustable. Happy shopping! - Kiera
submitted byKiera - 4 years agoTarget staff supportA: 3 shelves are adjustable. The center one is not, it's the middle support. So if you are looking for 5 exactly spaced shelves, it's impossible. It made my project change.

Q: Why is there a CA Prop 65 warning on this? Specifically what is the danger? Is it only if it’s broken or does it give off fumes? Please help- this is disarming
A: Most likely, I wish they would answer directly but they like to dance around this question..... all this cheaply made furniture usually has "preservatives" in it unfortunately.
submitted byhs66 - 3 years agoA: To anyone wondering what would trigger the California Prop 65 warning, it's very likely just the MDF it's made of. It can emit formaldehyde since it is manufactured with it.
submitted byHM - 10 months agoA: Hi MeTellingYou – That’s a great question! At the bottom of our product page is this warning: This product can expose you to chemicals including Formaldehyde, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov/furniture. www.p65warnings.ca.gov. Be safe! - Tim

Q: Can it be assembled without the backing, so the wall shows through? Or will this make it less stable?
A: Yes it can, I higly doubt the backing material adds and sort of stability. I have 2, they are sturdy enough as they are.
submitted byhs66 - 3 years agoA: Hi Patricia - Thanks for stopping by. This product needs to be assembled with the backing for stability. Please let us know if you have any further questions. - Chelsie
submitted byChelsie - 4 years agoTarget staff supportA: I have had several, the backing adds stability without it will begin to lean. I have bought contact paper in a design I like and added before adding the backing to add a little interest
