It could possibly work for books that are dvd size or smaller. You could also use less shelves if they're bigger. But you would have to make sure they're as wide as dvds being the shelf itself is more narrow

I love mine! The perfect fit for CDs. I was never able to figure out how to change it for DVDs. My neighbor put it together for me. I personally don't think it'd be good for books. Hope this helps.

The doors have shelves that hold cds/dvds too. You will need room at both sides of the cabinet to open the doors and get those, but it works well.

I use it only for DVD's but it is pretty sturdy and would probably be fine for smaller books.

sorry, I wish I could answer your question, I have thought of the very same thing, but I do use the cd case,that came with it, good safe storage for my cd's. Seeing that it doesn't seem to be removeable. There definitely would be more storage. You know, now that you mentioned it, I will take another look...

This is pretty sturdy and I think it would handle DVDs fine. I made some interior drawers for the shelves. You would probably have to have some more shelves for the interior depending on how many DVDs you have.

It's really too deep for books and the shelves are too tall. I use it as a pantry, & it's great for that. I could see using it as storage in a bedroom or living room.After reading the other responses, I'd just like to say I'm happy with the quality for the price. I was very careful to follow the instructions when assembling it, and I have had no problems.

I use the 8-tier media rack black primarily for books. In fact, I have three different sizes of these bookcases for my library in Florida, and they are all quite sturdy. I have many more books than CDs, so the second shelf from the top remains rather empty. I could take a picture easily enough on my next visit. These bookcases fit my decor there quite well. JPK

This bookshelf is 61 inches high, 37 inches wide, 6 inches deep. The actual shelves that hold the CD/DVD are recessed, so they are about 4.5 inches deep. This is deep enough to hold CDs and DVDs, although the CD/DVD cases do stick out about a half inch over the edge of the individual shelf (but still within the "frame" of the entire bookshelf). Hard to describe, but the arrangement looks good and is very stable.

No, I haven't done this. It's pretty sturdy. Mine is filled with cds. Taking your time when turning it does the trick.

Yes it will hold CD's but the CD has to be put in right in the middle of DVD shelf. There's about 2" in each side for it to move around but if it does, it will slip thru an opening. I really would not recommend this rack for just CD's.Love it for DVD's though.

Hi, I actually sent it back almost immediately. It looked great but was not sturdy enough for my use. With a lack of weight, almost every time I pulled a drawere it almost tipped the unit. I found a much heavier and tawler option with glass doors to hold my CDs and I would not be pulling out drawers. Hope this helps.

I purchased this item over a year ago. Yes you can place two cd's or dvd's in each hanging insert. I have had no problem with the case and would recommend it to anyone who has a lot of 4.75" optical discs to store. I suggest that the manufacture add a third handle where one would be located if this were a suit case; the handles on the side are a little awkward. If I can find a reasonably priced handle I plan on adding it myself. Other than that the case satisfies all my needs.

there are 7 movable shelves. perhaps they were counting the bottom which is still used to store cd's. It store approx 14 DVD's per shelf...You could probably fit CD's. We keep the DVD's in their boxes, so that takes up a little more room.

You could use it as a shoe shelf, but in my opinion that would be overkill. This unit looks beautiful lined with books and knick-knacks. Used for shoes would downgrade the innate beauty of the unit. Find something else!

The cabinet is sturdy enough to sit on the floor--it would hold hundreds of DVDs! I am using it to hold paperback books, and it holds numerous books. I can't even imagine how many DVDs it would hold. I love mine! Hope this post helps!

I have my CD's stored in their cases in this cabinet. I do not use the cabinet for DVD's but I just put one in the cabinet and it fits long wise in the case and the drawer closes fine. Good Luck
