Troubleshooting

Desk wobbles after assembly.

Ensure all screws and bolts are tightened securely. Check that the desk is on a level surface. If the wobble persists, consider adding felt pads to the desk legs.

Chair is uncomfortable for long periods.

While padded, the chair is designed for moderate use. For extended sitting, consider adding a separate seat cushion.

Worktop surface shows minor scratches.

Light scratches on the melamine surface can sometimes be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, consider using a furniture repair pen matching the white finish.

Desk or chair feels less sturdy over time.

Periodically check and re-tighten all connection points. Ensure the maximum load capacity (114kg for the desk) is not exceeded.
