Bookcase VidaXL 3300850, metal frame, black, 5 shelves, 600×350×1705 mm

The VidaXL 3300850 bookcase is a freestanding storage unit with a black metal frame and five open shelves. Measuring 600×350×1705 mm, it offers vertical storage for books, decorative items and media while maintaining a compact footprint suitable for living rooms, studies or hallways. The open design provides visible display and easy access to stored items, and the metal frame contributes to overall stability for everyday residential use.

Advantages

The metal frame provides structural support while keeping the unit visually lightweight. Five evenly spaced shelves allow for organised stacking and display of books and decorative objects. The open-shelf design simplifies access and makes it easy to see contents at a glance. Its narrow width and moderate depth make the bookcase suitable for smaller rooms where floor space is limited.

Suitable for

• Storing and displaying books in living rooms, home offices or bedrooms
• Organising media such as DVDs, vinyl or small electronics
• Showcasing decorative objects, plants or framed photos
• Providing vertical storage in corridors, entryways or compact apartments

When it may not be suitable

This bookcase has an open-shelf design without doors or enclosed compartments, so it may not be suitable where dust protection or concealed storage is required. The unit is intended for everyday residential items; it is not designed for heavy industrial loads or for storing very heavy equipment on multiple shelves.

Key specifications

• Type: Freestanding open-shelf bookcase
• Frame material: Metal
• Finish: Black
• Number of shelves: 5
• Overall dimensions (W×D×H): 600×350×1705 mm

How to use

Place the bookcase on a level floor and position it against a wall for additional stability. Arrange books upright or stacked horizontally on the shelves, distributing weight evenly across the unit to avoid overloading a single shelf. Use the open shelves to display decorative items or media; combine books with smaller accessories for a balanced visual layout. For safety on carpeted or uneven surfaces, consider using wall anchors or anti-tip fittings if available.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the overall dimensions (600×350×1705 mm) fit the intended location, including doorways and passageways during delivery.
• Decide if open shelving meets your needs for dust protection and visual concealment.
• Check floor strength and intended shelf loads; distribute heavy items across lower shelves.
• Consider anchoring options if children or pets are present.

Usage recommendations

For a stable and long-lasting setup, place heavier items on the lower shelves, avoid overloading any single shelf, and periodically tighten fasteners. Combine books with decorative elements to optimise both storage capacity and visual appeal.
