      Love it!

      Absolutely stunning. Easiest flat pack to put together ever! Compliments the Kirribilli side table really well as a set.

      Little side ledges are perfect for plants as well. A really timeless piece of furniture that will last for years to come.

      Lovely bookshelf

      So happy with the Kirribilli bookshelf! It was really easy to assemble, robust and looks really high quality. Looks beautiful in the room! Couldn’t be happier with the service from Koala, quick response time on email and was delivered on time. Thanks

      Really nice shelves

      I chose this bookshelf as I loved the edges on the sides and I can’t wait to decorate it with more plants and candles. The shelves also look like they’re good quality and you can’t tell they have been built from a flat pack like you can with cheaper furniture. Really happy with this purchase.

    Frequently asked questions

    How much weight can each bookshelf hold?

    We recommend evenly distributing the weight on each shelf and always placing heavier items on the bottom shelf.  Each shelf can comfortably hold 10kg with a max load of 45kgs in total for the bookshelf. 

    Do I really need to use the wall lanyards?

    Yes, we highly recommend it, especially if you have young children or pets. Toppling furniture poses a risk of injury or death. That is why we recommend securing the furniture item to the wall using the brackets provided. Consult a local hardware store for advice on the best hardware for your wall type.

    What space is there between the shelves?
    • 35cm gap between shelves
    • 8.5cm gap between the bottom of the foot and bottom shelf.
