How thick a book can you put on it? ( measure the spine when it's closed ) &amp; how tall? I have books 14" tall

It will hold at least a 3" thick book. The glass is just sits in the holder so you can rotate it if you'd like to be vertical instead of horizontal; just put the measurement guide on the bottom. Even with a 14" tall book, the glass set at horizontal will hold the book open and in place. The part of the book/page will just be above the height of the glass.

several small ones- I bought several sizes- don't know which this is. Think it is the small one - so only a couple books. Aren't the dimensions by the description? I would go by that and then measure books - are your books large, or smallish?

Hi Miranda, I've loaned my tape measure out so I'm without an accurate response. But, one could definitely fit taller books or florals, etc., about 12 inches. The width of each shelf appears to be 8" or so and length is about 1.5' however that's a very rough est. Wish I could help more. Best luck!

It might be a snug fit since the space where the book sits is about 2 inches. Weight-wise, I don't think it is a problem.

The height of the shelves is 9 1/2 inches. The top shelf will be a little taller, but you will need to tip the book to get it in.

It's just under 6 feet tall and about a foot wide and deep.... It doesn't take up much space at all, but, holds a good amount of books... I only purchased 1, but, want another... Assembly wasn't the worst, but, be patient... The wood is of decent quality.... It comes with a screw for the wall (for support)... I placed mine on carpet and it seems sturdy, but, I still used the wall attachment

Might be to heavy for paperbacks - 2 pages of a normal sized book no problem - I actually attach mine to a small stand and adjust it to read as I need it - Hope this helps!

You would have to measure the textbook when it's open. I put binders on it. Also, the thickness of the textbook might be an issue. The clips that hold the book open is very strong.

it would depend on the height of the paperback. I used it to hold a dvd collection and there is a 1/2 inch or so clearance on the height . I hope this help

It can definitely hold a book that tall as long as it's not super duper thick. I have a big heavy calculus back that fits in this book stand fine. It's very sturdy.

It works with paperbacks 1 or two inch thick. I does not work with tall 13+ inch and heavy books.

Shelves are actually a little higher than 12" but have a front molding that overlaps about 1/8". You could put them in on an angle though. Depth of each shelf is about 11" so if your books are no wider you shouldn't have a problem.

This piece of furniture is poorly made. I actually didn't have much luck with this item as it snapped into two. I definitely would not suggest anything heavy since I used it as a bookshelf. Each contained nothing more than paperbacks and it flopped. Hated it. Good luck!

Is that the description? I just measured mine, and it's nearly 7 inches high. Currently I have a hardback novel on it; the height of the novel is 9.5 inches, and the thickness is just over an inch - it fits nicely.

Actto Green Portable Reading Stand can physically accommodate thick books at various reading angles, but not optimally in terms of holding pages in place. The stand supports the weight of thick volumes. It was not designed for folio-sized references such as atlases, as the height of the stand where the volume rests is only seven inches. You can push the page holders back and lean the spine of the book on the two-inch base. Depending upon the quality of the binding, pages near the front or the back of the volume can sag. A simple check: Set your book on a flat surface. You can quickly check whether the binding will allow pages to stay open to your desired locations at the front or back. I tried Actto Stand with *Guide to Reference Books* Eleventh edition (Chicago: ALA, 1996). This 11.25-inch by 8.75-inch hard-cover volume has over 2000 pages and is 3 inches thick. Locations near the front and back sag without using the page holders, yet the stand functions fairly well. Your 2700-page text might possibly work with the stand if your book is hard cover, the binding is high quality, and the physical dimensions are not much larger than *Guide to Reference Books*. For long-term, sustained use with thick volumes, you might want to consider a bigger stand.

The space for the book is 1.75 in. If the book is opened, it would fit. The weight is not a problem
