Troubleshooting

Wobbly base

Ensure all leg screws are securely tightened. Check if the floor surface is even. If the wobble persists, contact customer support.

Marks on the shell

For light marks, use a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth. Always dry thoroughly.

Wood base appears dull

Dust regularly with a dry cloth. If needed, use a wood care product specifically designed for lacquered finishes, following product instructions carefully.

Scratching on wood legs

Avoid dragging the chair across the floor. Use felt pads on the bottom of the legs to prevent scratches on both the chair and your flooring.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The armchair typically arrives with the legs detached. Assembly involves securely attaching the four solid lacquered oak legs to the underside of the shell using the provided hardware. Ensure all screws are tightened firmly but avoid over-tightening to prevent damage.

Compatibility: This armchair is designed to complement modern and contemporary interior designs. It is suitable for use in dining rooms, living rooms, home offices, and bedrooms. Its versatile nature allows it to integrate with various colour palettes and material finishes.

Care:

  • Shell: Clean the composite shell with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the matte surface.
  • Wood Base: Dust the lacquered oak legs regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For spills, wipe immediately with a slightly damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Avoid placing hot items directly on the wood surface.
  • General: Protect the armchair from prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Periodically check that the leg attachments remain secure.
