Troubleshooting

Stool wobbles or is unstable.

Ensure all legs are firmly on the ground. Check that the swivel screw mechanism is fully tightened. If the issue persists, verify the floor surface is level.

Seat height adjustment is stiff or difficult.

Wipe the threads of the swivel screw mechanism with a damp cloth to remove any debris. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the threads and work the mechanism back and forth.

Scuff marks on beech wood.

For minor scuffs, try a wood cleaning product suitable for your beech finish. For deeper marks, professional refinishing might be required.

Discoloration of the joint material.

This can occur with prolonged UV exposure. Keep the stool out of direct sunlight when not in use. Cleaning with a mild soap and water solution may help.
