Is this bookcase sturdy enough to stack?

I suppose, however, it would be best to obtain shelves more appropriate to your needs with the stability necessary. I think stacking would compromise the integrity of two units.

I would say yes, if you put heavy things on the bottom and lighter ones on the top.

It is holding my TV. So it probably is strong enough for a lot of books. But the shelves don't go flush against the wall (at least, mine don't), so the only problem would be the books standing up. You could lay them flat and pile them.It will probably hold a fish bowl, too, but I'd suggest putting it on the lower shelves.

It is pretty sturdy so I don't think you'd have any problem storing books as long as they are not too big. The shelves are about 7" deep.

Yes! They are sturdy enough for books and easily assembled and look great for the price.

I'm not sure. The manufacturer says not to put more than 40 lbs. on the shelf, it doesn't say anything about the bookcase. I'd say no, because the back is simply cardboard tacked on to the wood frame.

I'm not sure I understand this question, if your asking if it will hold books it should it seems sturdy enough.

I don't think it would hold a lot of of books, as on every shelf. The shelfs are steel reinforced but I'd be concerned about the stability of the unit and the possibility of it toppling with too much weight. Otherwise, it is a very nice piece.

Yes; it is very strong & should hold as many books as you can place on the shelves.

Hard to say. Might be too top heavy. Maybe if you put books on bottom shelf.

It think it would be awkward to stack to of them I personally own just one but the one I have I noticed the the top of the surface does not hold weight well. I put a stack of books on it and it caved in. I hope this helps

Yes. It would be sturdy enough to use as a bookshelf. The space between the shelves is just about 12". Hope that helps.

Mine are stacked on top iof each other like bookcases-each filled with books and we have had no problems.

Yes. I put some books and files (Almost 12 lbs) on top ths cabinet and seems to be strong enough to hold.

I wouldn't use this as a bookcase.... It's pretty deep and the the spaces would be difficult unless you are just storing books.

We used one of our half sized ones for bags and shoes and other mud room type things, and it held up fine. It is of very sturdy particle board, and it holds up many of my heaviest books and statues. I have 6 of these bookcases (of various sizes), and I haven't had a problem yet.

I would say having two of these bookcases would work just fine side-by-side with no gaps. I really love my bookcase and am using it in my dining area to hold all my many cookbooks. It really is very nice looking and very solid.

I would not put a bunch of heavy books on the unit. It is fairly sturdy, but you will want a dedicated "book" shelf for what you want. This one is more for family snapshots and misc things. We only keep books on the bottom shelf.
