Troubleshooting

Chair wobbles or feels unstable.

Ensure the chair is on a level surface. Check if the sledge base has any damage. If the wobble persists, contact customer support as there might be an internal issue with the moulding or base attachment.

Scratches or marks on the seat surface.

For minor scratches, try a wood polishing compound suitable for the finish. For deeper marks, consult a furniture restoration specialist. Clean regularly with a damp cloth to prevent buildup that can attract dust and cause marks.

Base finish appears dull or worn.

Clean the base with a soft cloth and appropriate cleaner for the base material (e.g., chrome cleaner for chrome). Avoid harsh chemicals. For significant wear, professional refinishing might be necessary.
