Troubleshooting
Drawers are stiff or difficult to open/close
Check for any obstructions in the drawer runners. Ensure the unit is on a level surface. Lightly wax the drawer runners if necessary.
Unit wobbles or is unstable
Ensure all assembly screws are tightened securely. Check that the unit is placed on a flat, even surface. Adjust the small feet if they are uneven.
