Bookcase VidaXL 860347, wood frame and shelves, black and oak finish, 310×240×1270 mm

vidaXL 860347 is a compact bookcase with a wooden frame and wooden shelves finished in black and oak tones. With dimensions of 310×240×1270 mm, this narrow storage unit is designed to fit into tight spaces such as hallways, beside sofas or in small living rooms while offering vertical storage for books, magazines and decorative items. The simple, two-tone finish combines a dark frame with oak-coloured shelves for a restrained, contemporary look. Assembly is required.

Advantages

This bookcase uses a wood-based frame and shelves to provide a stable and lightweight storage solution. Its slim profile and tall construction maximise storage capacity while occupying minimal floor space. The black and oak finish allows it to blend with different interior styles, from modern to Scandinavian. Designed for vertical organisation, it helps keep reading materials and small decor items accessible and visible.

Suitable for

• Small living rooms where floor area is limited
• Corridors and narrow entryways
• Beside sofas or armchairs as a compact side storage
• Home offices with limited space for shelving
• Displaying books, magazines and small decorative objects

When it may not be suitable

The bookcase is relatively narrow and designed for light to moderate loads; it is not intended for storing very heavy items or large stacks of oversized books. If you need extensive horizontal storage or require a freestanding unit able to hold substantial weight, a wider or more robust shelving solution would be more appropriate.

Key specifications

• Overall dimensions: 310 × 240 × 1270 mm (W × D × H)
• Material: wood-based frame and shelves
• Finish: black frame with oak-coloured shelves
• Number of shelves: multiple fixed or adjustable wooden shelves (as supplied)
• Assembly: assembly required

How to use

Assemble the bookcase following the included instructions, ensuring all screws and fittings are tightened securely. Position the unit against a wall on a flat, level surface; for added stability, consider using wall-fixing brackets if provided or available. Distribute weight evenly across shelves, placing heavier items on lower shelves and lighter items or decorative pieces on upper shelves. Use the top surface for small plants, picture frames or decorative accents while keeping frequently used books within easy reach.

What to consider before purchase

• Measure the intended location to ensure the 310×240×1270 mm dimensions will fit comfortably
• Consider the expected load per shelf and whether the wood-based construction meets your weight requirements
• Check that the two-tone black and oak finish suits your interior colour scheme
• Ensure you are prepared to assemble the unit or have assistance available

Usage recommendations

For safe and long-lasting use, place heavier items on lower shelves, avoid overloading any single shelf, and secure the bookcase to the wall if children or pets are present. Regularly check and retighten fittings after initial assembly and during periodic maintenance.
