If you've been after a bookshelf that actually holds a decent amount of stuff without taking over the room, this five-shelf unit from is well worth a look. Standing just over 158 cm tall with an oak and white finish, it fits neatly into a living room, home office, or even a covered patio — and it looks tidy doing it. The combination of engineered wood shelves and a steel frame gives it that clean industrial vibe that works with a lot of different home styles.

Each shelf holds up to 15 kg, so you're not just limited to paperbacks — think plants, framed photos, DVDs, decorative bits and pieces, whatever you want to display or store. The whole unit takes up to 75 kg total, which is genuinely solid for something this size. It wipes down easily with a damp cloth too, which is always a bonus when life gets messy.

You can grab this one at Simpledeals and have it at your door without the department store markup. Assembly is required but straightforward, and if you'd rather spread the cost, Afterpay is available at checkout. Great value for a shelf that actually looks the part.
