    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.
