Troubleshooting

Bookcase wobbles after assembly

Ensure all screws and fittings are tightened securely. Check that the bookcase is on a level surface. If necessary, use felt pads under the feet to stabilize it.

Screws do not align correctly

Loosen nearby screws slightly to allow for adjustment, then re-tighten once aligned. Ensure you are using the correct screws for each step as per the instructions.

Wood finish appears uneven

This is often due to the natural grain of the solid pine. Minor variations are characteristic of solid wood. For significant unevenness, check if any protective film was left on during transit or contact customer support.
