Glass is great!ErikBilli glass shelves are great! The glass shelf is thinner (if your books are just a *bit* too big), and never, ever sag. Also, for high and low shelves, Glass shelving is wonderful for display items too (LEGO, anyone?).
Nice way to get more spaceRonaldThe finish great. It matches the other ones.
Extra Billy shelf +++KarenExtra shelves are as good as the book case!
Looks great!SoniaThis was a really easy to build, clean looking shelving unit we added to our office. It comes with shelves (we accidentally bought them separately) and fits all of our needs.
Substitute for birchBobbyI have 7 or 8 birch bookshelves, and can't find extra shelves.
Billy shelvesMirandaThese are great!! It gives the bookcase a lot of versatility compared to their bookcases. I love it!
Billy works in so many waysJamesThe glass shelf for the Billy bookcase is great. It changes the look of the bookcase and can make it into a display case if you want to.
Great option but pricey TracieI love having the ability to add on & customize my Billy Bookshelves but the price of the add on shelves is too expensive in my opinion. I purchased 3 extra shelves and it was half of what I paid for 1 bookshelf and the bookshelf comes with 5 shelves.🤔 In addition, I do notice the quality of the product has changed. Hardware is not as sturdy and some parts have gone from metal to plastic. Assembly is always a breeze and everything always lines up!
Sturdy shelfTedA good quality shelf that runs true to size.
love theseGiulianafit great, very simple. they work great to add book shelf space in my unit
Perfect sizeManuelaThe deep of the bookcase is perfect for small spaces.
Perfect in every way!ConnieI love Billy! I have 10 units in three rooms in my house. They are so easy to assemble and look great. I trimmed mine out to make them look like built-ins. They are the perfect size, and when I had to cut one down in width, it came out perfect.
Fabulous additional storageAlma-MarieEasy to add the needed space to organize and area. Fast and easy to build. Instant transformation.
I love the glass shelvesMeredithI had the shelves shipped to my home. They arrived we’ll protected and in excellent shape. They are serving well as plant shelves in my shelving unit.
Love my Billy products!JessicaSo wonderful to be able to add additional shelves, it makes the Billy product so useful!!!!!!!
Disappointing experienceArthurMy bookcase is from 2018, so this extra shelf should (and does) fit. The included metal support pins and the shelf cutouts these pins rest on are exactly the same design as the original shelves that came with my bookcase.
However, the decrease in quality from the original shelves is very noticeable: the cutouts are rough and unfinished, the pins have sharp jagged edges you can cut yourself on. It took me excessive force & fiddling to fit the extra shelf over the (included) pins.
A very disappointing experience with a basic item. Definitely not recommended until this quality control issue is addressed.
Material
What is glass?
Glass is mainly made of sand, soda, and lime melted at a high temperature. Tempering or various additives gives you extra-strong and impact-resistant glass that in some cases can be taken straight from freezer to oven without cracking. A big benefit is how glass can be recycled over and over without the quality deteriorating. Also, a lot less energy is needed to melt recycled glass compared to new raw materials. Our goal is to eventually use only recycled glass in our range.
