Troubleshooting

Drawers are stiff or difficult to open/close.

Ensure the drawer runners are clean and free from debris. Check that the chest is on a level surface. Slightly loosen the drawer screws if they are overtightened, or tighten if too loose. Ensure no part of the drawer is catching on the frame.

The chest wobbles or is unstable.

Verify that all screws and fixings are securely tightened. Check that the chest is placed on a flat, even floor. If the floor is uneven, consider using furniture pads or shims to level the unit.

Assembly instructions are unclear.

Review the diagrams carefully and ensure you are using the correct hardware for each step. If a step remains confusing, try searching online for video tutorials of similar Corona furniture assembly, or contact customer support for clarification.

Wood finish appears uneven or has minor marks.

This can be a characteristic of hand-waxed finishes and natural wood grain. Minor imperfections should be minor and can often be blended with a touch of furniture wax. If the issue is significant, contact customer support.
