Troubleshooting
Drawers are stiff or difficult to open/close.
Ensure the chest is on a level surface. Check that the drawer runners are clean and free from debris. Make sure the drawer sides are correctly aligned and not warped. Sometimes, a light application of wax or silicone spray on the runners can help.
Assembly instructions are unclear or parts are missing.
Carefully re-read the relevant step in the instructions. Check all packaging thoroughly for small parts. If parts are genuinely missing or instructions remain unclear, contact the retailer or manufacturer's customer support for assistance.
The finish appears uneven or has slight marks.
This can be due to the nature of the grey wash and hand-waxed finish, which is designed to highlight the natural wood grain. Minor variations are characteristic of the design. If significant marks are present, contact customer support.
The chest wobbles or feels unstable.
Confirm that all screws and fixings are tightened securely. Ensure the chest is placed on a flat, level floor. If the floor is uneven, consider using shims under the feet to stabilize it.
