Troubleshooting
Wobbly structure after assembly
Ensure all screws are tightened securely. Check that the base is on a level surface. Re-evaluate assembly steps to ensure all parts are correctly aligned.
Water pooling despite drainage hole
Verify the drainage hole is not blocked by soil or debris. Gently poke a tool through the hole to clear any obstruction. Ensure the planter is not sitting directly on a solid surface that prevents water escape.
Wood finish fading or peeling
The unit may require reapplication of an outdoor-safe wood sealant or stain. Clean the surface thoroughly before applying a new coat as per the product's sealant instructions.
