array silver bookcase

on the up and up. Looking at this empty photo hardly does these alternative library stacks justice. Layer books and novels on their sides. Intersperse CDs and publications. Bruno Rainaldi design in lightweight laser-cut steel with silver powdercoat adds literati edge to a room. 14" footprint is a find for tight spaces. Each removable shelf can hold up to nine pounds. We like them lined up in threes. -Designed by Bruno Rainaldi -Laser-cut steel components -Aluminum-tone powdercoat finish -Lightweight -Made in Italy

Italian design always works
Date:04/13/2013
great function AND design beauty; keeps books "light" vs heavy stacks or luggish fixed shelving. base is very heavy, so be forewarned when attaching the column (easy but awkward)

space saver extraordinaire
Date:03/04/2013
small space storage solution for any space home or apartment....I was downsizing a very large bookcase and the Array worked perfectly. So I bought another to use in another room. Very sturdy and looks great.

Not the same one as 2 years ago
Date:12/05/2012
I purchased this about 2 years ago and loved it. Each shelf screwed in and was sturdy. I then went and purchased a 2nd one. It IS NOT the same design as the one 2 years ago. The shelves 'slide' into place and while my bookshelf only holds dvd's it still leans forward and looks flimsy and awkward I am very unhappy with it.

Cool looking shelve, but a bit pricey.
Date:09/10/2012
Here is the deal... This is a great book shelve, however, you need two or three of them in order to: (a) make it look good, and, (b) actually have enough room to store books. Therein lies the problem. At $180 each, you will end up spending close to $400 or $600 dollars to get the desired effect, because you really need more than just one. Heck, they even recommend buying more than one in the product description. So, overall, it is nice, it is sturdy, it looks good, but it is just a bit too expensive.

It doesn't get more straightforward than this. It's really easy to assemble and the minimalist design makes it an easy piece to work into any room/decor. I am really happy with this item.

great bookcase
Date:09/05/2012
I bought this to store/display my law school textbooks. It is holding three years' worth of pretty heavy hard and soft cover books and seems very sturdy. I'm very happy with this purchase. It's functional but also makes the books look almost sculptural. Love it.

chic and pratique
Date:09/03/2012
I have two of these -- one was a present. I used the first one as art piece in my living room. It's an astonishing object indeed -- it parades your books. But it also allies practicality to beauty. I moved in to a new house where my office does not have walls appropriate for shelving, so 2 of these hold plenty of books and fit odd places. It might seem strange that vertical storage might possibly be practical. Yet it really is ... the dividers actually provide convenient thematic breaks between books... but when full, the shelves look like the books are magically standing on top of each other. The titles read horizontally. The books pull out easily ... I have one next to my desk for the books I am currently working with. I love them shelves. Got the grey ones.

Not very sturdy but very pretty
Date:04/02/2012
A very pretty decorative book case. Assembling was not easy as it was difficult to align the screws. Also shakes when books are placed on it. Not sure how long the tiny screws at the base will hold before the book case collapses. Can only be used for paperback books. No hard covers.

Very versatile, perfect for tight spaces
Date:03/09/2012
Bought one, then had to have a second one. I us one for a bookcase in a small spot between a dresser and a wall. I bought a second one for towels and washcloths in a small bathroom. Works very well for both applications.

i ordered this bookcase for my home office because it looked fun, didn't take up much room and still seemed to hold a lot of books. It worked out great. It's super easy to install and worked perfectly in the space.

Great simple design, fits in perfectly with my eclectic boho/hacienda style. Intelligent way to display an array of sentimental books and DVDs. Highly recommend getting one...or two!

I got the shelf in orange. It is very easy to put together (took about 5 mins.) , well made and looks great. It wont quite hold larger books (which is why it only got a 4 rating) but for smaller ones I highly recommend it.
