Comments about - Conceal Floating Bookshelves:

I bought the larger size thinking that it would hold all books but the first book has to be the size suggested by maker to fit properly; the rest don't matter. I really love the look of the floating bookshelf and convenience of keeping my books close to my bed without having to stack them on my dresser.

Floaty Float Shelves

By Frank Anon

from Indianapolisish

About Me Midrange Shopper

Pros

Fun
Magic

Cons

A little weak
No drywall anchors

Best Uses

Kids room

Comments about - Conceal Floating Bookshelves:

I put a few of them in the kids room for all the kid books we have. Looks like magic and is unique from other shelves I've seen. The only cons I have is that it doesn't come with drywall anchors (get some, or hit a stud in the wall), and the metal is a little on the weak side. I obeyed the documentation and only put about 15 lbs of books on them and it started to bow down. I just bent it a little up and it was level again. Just don't load them down and it'll be fine.

I used this product to display vintage hatboxes - it was just what I was looking for! The boxes are now a great floating design element on a large wall.

- A:
  We do not have an experience with this style of mounting. We do not recommend using velcro as it may fall. It is best to use the hardware provided.

Q:
Followed the instruction by mounting the shelves on a stud, but they did not hold well. The shelves fell after placed three (medium size) books. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks!

- A:
  You will need to use a screw long enough to reach through the drywall and through the stud. Weigh the books used, and make sure they do not exceed the weight limit of 10lb.

  There is a small lip on the bottom of the bookshelf where it meets the wall that holds the back page of the book up. It really neat how they truly appear to be floating on the wall.

- A:
  Since this only attaches to the wall with one screw properly mounted would be direct into a stud, or using an anchor for drywall.
