can the bookcase be assembled with one shelf elimminated to make room for an extra tall item?

You can do it by not installing the metal sheet of one shelf. This metal sheet is supported by two rods. You can also eliminate one rod but it might result in a less strong bookcase.

I believe that's what the top shelf is for-the strength/integrity of the case might be compromised if all shelves were not included, but the case seems sturdy enough to handle a missing shelf-it would depend on the weight of the items

Yes, we did that to put my son's stereo on the shelving, worked good. If you have more than one you need to secure it to the studs in the wall. Good luck

It could, but it would probably make the bookcase less stable. I have several folio volumes on the top shelf and they are fine.

Yes you can. Just move one of the shelves up to next notch and it will fit.

I wouldn't try it, myself. The weight question would be borderline at best, and I would think there would be too much danger of the top one sliding off because of the materials and the way they are made. (Plus I think it would look funny.) I own this model as well as the taller bookcase... Have you considered just buying one tall one instead of stacking? I think you would he happier with the result.

Yes, definitely. The shelves can be spaced differently, with several different options, very easily. It comes disassembled. You can also take it back apart after assembling it.

When you put it together, you can decide how you want to space the shelving sections. I, too, had some taller items that I wanted the unit to accommodate so I made the space between the bottom and middle shelf bigger than the space between the middle shelf and top shelf.

I do not have an exact answer but if you could look into buying an extra shelf like a single in same size and brand to see if you can just add the shelf portion to this one? Just a though, the single might be cheaper..I'm not even sure if it's possible (my step dad put mine together).

I am not sure, but there are separate pieces to it at different lengths. If you need it shorteryou can just leave a section out, but you might not be able to use all of the shelves if you do.

Yes you can. You can assemble the shelf in each section and have 2 shelf's if you wish, I believe that you will have 1 extra shelf and 4 uprights leftover.

Yes, you can fasten a shelf on the very top but the unit is so narrow you might not want to place a tv on top of it; unless you are buying two units & using them side by side.

Yes you could but the shelves wouldn't be spaced evenly. They make a three shelf version of this if that helps.

Yes, when you assemble it just don't screw the two poles together. The directions for making two shelves are in the assembly directions.

could assemble this w/out using the shelves above/to the right of the monitor? thus increasing the overall size/area on the top.

You can use bookends or weighted decor...I love the shelf... It was the perfect size for my space ...

I don't think so. The way the unit assembles, there are locking type mechanisms on each row designed to provide an additional kind of sturdiness when put together properly. I considered leaving out a shelf myself. However, I determined it wasn't worth turning the unit into an unstable piece.

Yes - each shelf (if using both) is adjustable in height using 3 holes, spaced about an inch apart drilled into the sides. The shelves rest on pins inserted in these holes. So, for example the height of the bottom shelf can be as low as 7 1/2" up to 10 1/2". You could always drill more to customize, as this part of the case is solid wood.

Hi, yes you can adjust the height of the shelves to make the space in between as you prefer. BR

Sure you can customize height of shelf. However, the bottom one, with the changed height, will compromise the efficient use of space. The upper comes with an alternate set of holes already.
