Book Cabinet VidaXL model 862001, engineered wood, black, 60 x 24 x 76 cm

VidaXL book cabinet model 862001 is a slim freestanding shelving unit made from engineered wood with a black finish. With external dimensions of 60 x 24 x 76 cm, this compact cabinet offers vertical storage space suitable for books, folders and small decorative items. The neutral black surface and simple rectangular silhouette make it suitable for home, study or office environments where floor space is limited and a narrow storage solution is required.

Advantages

The cabinet's engineered wood construction provides a stable and lightweight structure that is easier to move than solid wood furniture while retaining a consistent surface finish. Its compact footprint and vertical layout maximize storage capacity in narrow spaces. The black finish offers a discreet, versatile appearance that integrates with different interior styles. Assembly is straightforward thanks to clear connection points typical for this category of furniture.

Suitable for

• Storing paperbacks, hardcovers and reference books in a bedroom or study
• Organizing A4 folders, binders and documents in a home office
• Displaying small decorative items, photo frames or plants on limited floor space
• Adding narrow storage to hallways, landing areas or compact living rooms

When it may not be suitable

This cabinet is not intended for very heavy loads or industrial use; it is designed for everyday household and office items such as books and folders. If you need large-capacity shelving for heavy objects, metal or solid-wood shelving systems with higher load ratings would be more appropriate. Also, the narrow depth limits the size of items that can be stored—large-format books or wide storage boxes may not fit comfortably.

Key specifications

• Material: engineered wood with black finish
• External dimensions: 60 x 24 x 76 cm (width x depth x height)
• Freestanding narrow cabinet design
• Shelving configuration: vertical compartments suitable for books and folders
• Surface: smooth, paint or laminate finish in black

How to use

Place the cabinet on a level, stable floor surface and assemble according to the supplied instructions. Use the lower shelves for heavier items such as large books or binders and the upper shelves for lighter items and decorative objects to maintain stability. Distribute weight evenly across the shelves and avoid overloading any single shelf beyond typical household bookloads. If placed on an uneven surface or in a household with children, consider anchoring the unit to the wall for added safety.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the external dimensions (60 x 24 x 76 cm) to ensure it fits the intended location and doorways during delivery and installation
• Consider the depth (24 cm) relative to the size of the books, folders or boxes you plan to store
• Check whether you require wall anchoring for added stability in homes with children or pets
• Confirm surface maintenance requirements for the engineered wood finish and the desired color match with existing furniture

Usage recommendations

For balanced weight distribution, store heavier books on lower shelves and rotate displayed items to prevent long-term pressure marks. Clean the surface with a soft, damp cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners. Anchoring the cabinet to a wall is recommended in households with children or on slightly uneven floors to reduce tipping risk.
