Bookcase VidaXL 860338, wood frame and shelves, black and oak, 310 × 240 × 1020 mm

vidaXL 860338 is a compact bookcase with a wooden frame and wooden shelves finished in contrasting black and oak tones. With external dimensions of 310 × 240 × 1020 mm, this narrow, upright unit is designed to store books, decorative items and small objects while occupying minimal floor space. The mix of black and oak finish creates a simple, contemporary look suitable for living rooms, hallways and home offices where a restrained storage solution is required.

Advantages

The bookcase combines a sturdy wooden frame with evenly spaced wooden shelves for reliable support of books and display items. Its narrow footprint and 1020 mm height make it suitable for tight corners and small rooms. The black and oak finishes offer a neutral yet contrasting aesthetic that integrates with various interior styles. Construction and material choices focus on practical, everyday use and ease of placement.

Suitable for

• Storing paperbacks, hardcovers and small book collections
• Displaying decorative objects, small plants and photo frames
• Placement in living rooms, hallways, entryways and home offices
• Maximizing vertical storage in narrow spaces

When it may not be suitable

This compact bookcase is not intended for very large or heavy items such as oversized reference volumes or heavy audiovisual equipment; its slim profile limits load-bearing capacity compared with wider shelving units. If you need extensive storage for large-format books or heavy objects, consider a larger, heavy-duty shelving solution.

Key specifications

• Overall dimensions: 310 × 240 × 1020 mm (width × depth × height)
• Material: wooden frame and wooden shelves
• Finish: black and oak
• Orientation: upright, vertical storage
• Number of shelves: multiple fixed shelves (as per unit design)
• Intended use: indoor storage for books and small objects

How to use

Place the bookcase against a flat wall on a level surface to ensure stability. Arrange books and objects evenly across the shelves to avoid overloading a single shelf; distribute heavier items on lower shelves and lighter items higher up. Use felt pads or small rubber feet beneath the legs if placing on delicate flooring to prevent scratches. If necessary, secure the unit to the wall using appropriate fixings to reduce tipping risk, especially in homes with children or pets.

What to consider before purchase

• Measure the intended location to confirm the 310 × 240 × 1020 mm dimensions will fit through doors and into the placement space
• Check shelf spacing and expected load per shelf relative to the items you plan to store
• Verify floor type and whether protective pads or wall anchoring will be needed
• Consider the visual contrast of black and oak finishes in your room decor

Usage recommendations

To prolong lifespan and maintain appearance, avoid exposing the bookcase to direct sunlight or excessive humidity, clean with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth, and redistribute weight periodically to prevent sagging of shelves.
