- How tall is the Montia bookcase compared with a standard one?
- It stands 76 inches tall, noticeably taller than the common 60- to 72-inch bookcases. That extra height adds a shelf's worth of storage without taking more floor space.
- Does it need to be anchored to the wall?
- A bookcase this tall should be fixed to the wall, especially in homes with children or pets. Anchoring also keeps a fully loaded unit from tipping.
- Is it open shelving or does it have doors?
- It is open shelving with no doors or drawers. Everything stored on it stays visible, which suits display but not hiding clutter.
- What can it hold besides books?
- The shelves take books, storage baskets, photo frames and plants. Baskets are a common way to add hidden storage to an open unit.
- How does it compare with a shorter bookcase?
- It offers more shelf space in the same footprint, but it is heavier and more awkward to move. Shorter units are easier to place under windows or in small rooms.
