morecloseWE LOVE OUR TYLKO
We LOVE our tylko. It took us forever to decide on the final set up and also which wood to use. But after receiving the wood samples we went for ash and we couldn't be happier. The shelf was also put up by the tylko team in under 45 minutes, which was an amazing service to have and definitely worth the extra money if you have such a high and wide shelf as we opted for. We would definitely recommend tylko to friends and family as we are extremely happy with our self and have nothing to complain about :)

morecloseEffortless flat pack.
Simple and easy to build. The way it was packaged meant no searching for pieces, it was just the top piece every time. We wanted wall to wall and floor to ceiling storage/bookshelf and whilst we achieved this the assemble on floor and stand up method meant we had to install the top shelf in situ. Also had to cut the bottom shelf to accommodate the skirting boards. Tricky, but the end result is fabulous!

morecloseBeautiful Quality Shelf, Great Service
I honestly wish more shopping experiences were like Tylko! I have a very small Amsterdam house and searches for a very long time for a specific size tv stand. And finally found Tylko. The quality of the product is just gorgeous and they have clearly thought through their customer service strategy..... there’s never doubt about the progress of your order. Highly recommend.

morecloseGood service, and prduct
Satisfied with the shelf, it is easy to asemble and to design after your own wishes. Seems to be of good quality, one piece was damaged in transport, but i got a replacement part fast and no questions asked. I was able to store much more books in my bespoke tylko shelf then the standard shelf I had before it, and reasonably price compared to similar products.

We strongly recommend Tylco shelf. Even though we have some issues on the assembly at the beginning, the custommer service was a top service and absolutely helpful and we sort the issue out. Now we are enjoying our tv stand and we will be ordering our dinner room shelf really soon!

moreclosecraftmanship! and love the app, really good interaction design!
The design is beautiful, the materials are excellent, to assemble the bookcase slash tv stand was a piece of cake! And the delivery was also correct, even the driver helped me to bring the stuff two stairs up. I would buy one again and I allready told friends about it.

morecloseMost complimented (and useful) piece of furniture we own
We recently moved from our apartment for which we bought a wall-to-wall Tylko bookshelf with doors (drawers didn't exist back then). I packed a total of 16 moving boxes with all the stuff we had stored there. It made it possible for us to live in a small studio apartment. All our friends loved it and it was always the first thing people commented. We have had multiple friends who bought their own after seeing ours. I can highly recommend Tylko to anyone. I will be (once I have saved up) buy a Tylko shelves for our new place.

morecloseWhat a great experience
As you can see in the picture, I bought a really huge shelf, its 2,83 m high. And 224 kg heavy. Started building up at 1 pm and had it at the wall around 3 pm. With all the drawers and doors fixed, the books and decoration back in place I finished at 6 pm. The system is so simple and easy to do. Great manual. Had a bit of a rough time with drawers as they dont like me which is mutual. But in the end this thing matches perfectly, the price is absolutely fine and its the cleverest invention I ever saw coming from our nice Polish neighbours. I definitely consider buying more stuff, already did a very positive shoutout on facebook. Just a hint. Definitely use the help of friends to erect a shelf of that size and maybe don't ask your weaker friends. It's heavy! But its also very very sturdy. Quality of materials is flawless. One or two joints where not perfect but doable. To mount the levels it definately needs the hammer and some strong hits. So prepare yourself to be strong but also very happy in the end. For me it replaced a workout session.

morecloseGreat quality stylish shelves
we wanted a shelving uint on one side of our home office covering the whole wall, we have been looking for high streets etc with no luck. We started looking for customised ones online and came across Tylko. The website really stands out for me and there were so may different styles to start with for me to choose from and start customising to my specification. The online chat was also very helpful in helping me with my questions. I placed my order and a few weeks later the boxes arrived! The building experience was very pleasant, the instruction was personalised and very easy to follow. there were stickers that make sure every piece faces the right way up when building (bonus point for easy to remove stickers!). The finished quality of each piece feels premium. The drawers unit has easy adjustable sliders to make sure it is straight. Everything just clicks and clip together perfectly. The finished product is solid and stable. I could not be more happy with my Tylko Shelf!

morecloseA well thought and amazingly designed product from start to finish
I couldn't believe how easy to assemble this was. Kudos to the designers and engineers for developing such a well thought product! The quality and final look is awesome. Everything fits perfectly, and the drawers feel like they're floating even though they're holding a huge amount of records each, which is generally the problem with other drawers (and shelves). And once it's built and filled, it just looks incredibly good. Really happy I decided to buy this, and some advice for anyone with record storing problems: get one now!

morecloseSurprisingly good quality and timeless design
To buy a bookshelf from Tylko was a careful decision. We first ordered a bookshelf from a German website (twice, actually), and received damaged pieces only after over two months waiting. Then, we decided to another brand, and did a desk research to figure out the options. Tylko was chosen, because of the fun concept to design our own bookshelf, also because the price is acceptable, compared to other well-known brands. Thanks to the positive reviews we found online, we are determined to give it a try. The bookshelf was delivered in around three weeks. All boxed came in a good shape, very nicely packaged - They even put pieces in the right order, so when the box is open, the first piece needed is always on top. How detailed! For people who got used to IKEA assembling techniques like us, it took bit time to figure out the rule of Tylko, not too much though, as the simple ‘click’ made life way easier. The quality of the pieces are much better than expected, and fit each other precisely. We spent a bit over half day to assemble the whole bookshelf, which is around 3 meters long and 2.3 meter high. And in short, we can’t be any happier with the work done. My husband said the money spent on this bookshelf is a very sensible decision. So I would be very happy to recommend this brand to anyone who is looking for personalized, value-for-money and sustainable furnitures.

What’s the difference between Type01 Plywood and Type01 Veneer?
Both lines offer the same 4 styles and customisation options, but they also have their own personalities. Available in three classic colours, Type01 Plywood is made from 13 layers of durable plywood wrapped in laminate and features aluminium handles designed in-house. Type01 Veneer is made from particle board with a natural veneer topper and is available in two earthy tones inspired by nature, made complete with solid wood handles for a tactile experience.
How will I know if a shelf colour will suit my home?
We can send you a free colour sample pack in the mail. Let us know you want one by contacting [email protected] We can also provide the RAL/NCS codes for all of our colours.
What is plywood?
Plywood is made from compressed layers of solid wood. Its strength makes it an excellent choice for long-lasting furniture design. Our premium-grade plywood is sourced from hardened European birchwood and layered together with non-toxic glue.
Is a Tylko shelf safe to use in a child’s room?
Absolutely. We only use sustainably sourced plywood and non-toxic glues and oils. The handles are also rounded to avoid any nasty bumps. The shelf itself is very sturdy and strong, so it won’t sway, sag or topple over. But for added peace of mind, we provide wall mounts so you can attach it firmly to your wall.
Why do you offer only three row sizes?
Our three row heights are influenced by the common everyday objects of our customers – things like photo frames, vinyl records, oversized coffee table books and shoeboxes. The three heights (18 cm, 28 cm, 38 cm) have been carefully designed so that no matter how much you adjust or adapt them, they won’t sway or sag under weight.
Why is the slimmer 24 cm depth only available on selected product categories?
One of our guiding principles in design is superior stability – we don’t want any swaying or sagging. We excluded the 24 cm depth from certain products that would be negatively affected stability-wise, such as the TV stand. Also, due to construction limitations, we’re unable to offer drawers with any product using the 24 cm depth.
