A Swedish classic
We love our String shelf! We have it in white and walnut, with cabinets. We have books and other decorative objects in our shelf and it's sturdy and was easy to put up. The string shelf system looks modern and timeless! We get a lot of compliments on them from our friends.

Modern, versatile, airy
Love this modern classic, very happy with the purchase. I got the tall floor version with light wood shelves. These shelves are versatile and can be used to display and store just about anything. They are not intended to carry heavy loads of books (see specs for max load).
Since DWR seems to be String’s exclusive distributor, I hope they will add more options.

Unusable as normal shelving!!
This item is way too flimsy to hang any amount of books on! Apparently it is not a functional shelf. We will try to return it ASAP.
