Troubleshooting

Stool feels wobbly after assembly.

Ensure all three screws connecting the legs to the seat are fully tightened. Check that the legs are properly seated in the designated slots before tightening screws.

Difficulty inserting legs into the seat.

Verify that you are using the correct leg for the corresponding slot, if applicable, and ensure there are no obstructions. The fit should be snug but should not require excessive force.

Wood seat has minor surface imperfections.

This is normal due to the hand-sanding process and adds to the unique character of each stool. If significant damage is present, contact customer support.
