Q&A answers generated with AI assistance.
How do I safely anchor a tall bookcase to the wall?
Safety is a paramount concern for tall furniture, especially in households with children or pets. While this unit is designed for stability, we strongly recommend using a professional anti-tip kit to anchor it securely to a wall stud. This is a crucial step for any furniture over 30 inches tall to prevent accidental tipping and ensure a safe environment in your home.
Does this furniture require assembly upon delivery?
This bookcase is delivered fully assembled, allowing you to bypass the hassle of flat-pack construction. When you select our full-service delivery option, our team will bring the unit into your home and place it exactly where you want it. We recommend measuring your doorways and entryways beforehand to ensure the 70-inch height and 31.5-inch width can transition easily into your desired room.
How do I properly clean and maintain the finish on a maple veneer bookcase?
To preserve the elegant silver finish and the detail of the maple grain, we recommend a simple maintenance routine. Based on our furniture care expertise, you should dust the surfaces regularly with a clean, soft cloth. For minor stains, use a cloth slightly dampened with mild soap and water, then dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive polishes, as these can damage the veneer's protective topcoat over time.
Is this bookcase a good choice for a small apartment or urban home?
Absolutely. At 31.50 inches wide and only 13 inches deep, this bookcase is specifically designed to provide significant vertical storage—reaching 70 inches in height—without occupying a large floor footprint. Its slim profile makes it an ideal solution for narrow hallways, home office nooks, or as a stylish storage addition in a compact living room where maximizing vertical space is a priority.
What is the best material for a bookcase to ensure the shelves don't sag?
When selecting a bookcase for a large collection, material quality is key to long-term durability. This piece is crafted with maple veneers, which offer the beautiful look of natural wood grain while providing a stable, warp-resistant surface. For maintaining the integrity of the four shelves, our experts recommend distributing weight evenly and placing your heaviest volumes, such as large art books or thick binders, on the bottom shelf to keep the unit grounded and stable.
What is the difference between a bookcase and a bookshelf?
While the terms are often used interchangeably, a bookcase like this one is a freestanding furniture piece characterized by enclosed sides and a structured frame. In contrast, a "bookshelf" typically refers to individual, often wall-mounted or lightweight open shelves. This traditional-style bookcase offers a more substantial, furniture-grade presence that coordinates beautifully with other executive home office desks and chairs.

I purchased this for my office. The Bookcase is right for books and family pictures. The accent is just right. Thank you
