Troubleshooting

Bookcase feels wobbly after assembly

Ensure all screws and fixings are tightened securely. Check that the bookcase is placed on a level surface. If the wobble persists, consider using wall anchors for added stability, especially if placing heavy items on the shelves.

Difficulty inserting shelf support pegs

Gently align the pegs with the pre-drilled holes. If resistance is met, ensure there are no obstructions in the holes. Do not force the pegs; if issues persist, contact customer support.

Scratches or marks on the waxed finish

For minor scratches, a furniture wax polish specifically designed for wood can often help to buff them out. For deeper marks, you may need to reapply a furniture wax according to product instructions.
