Troubleshooting

Bookcase wobbles or is unstable

Ensure all screws and connectors are tightened securely. Check that the bookcase is on a level surface. Consider using an anti-tip wall anchor kit for added stability, especially if placing heavy items or in a location prone to vibrations.

Missing or damaged parts upon arrival

Contact customer support immediately with your order details and a description or photo of the issue. The manufacturer can provide replacement parts.

Difficulty aligning panels during assembly

Review the assembly instructions carefully, paying close attention to the orientation of each panel. Ensure no pieces are forced; loosen nearby connections slightly to allow for better alignment, then retighten once fitted correctly.

Melamine finish is scratched or chipped

For minor scratches, a furniture repair crayon or marker in a matching color may help conceal them. For larger chips, consult the manufacturer for potential repair solutions or touch-up kits.

Unpack all components carefully and identify each part using the included instruction manual. Follow the step-by-step diagrams provided to connect the panels and shelves.
