Product Information

Full details

The Mercers Furniture Corona Large Bookcase in Brown is designed for homeowners seeking a rustic and charming storage solution for their books and decorative items. Its key benefit is the solid pine construction offering a warm, country aesthetic at great value. A potential caveat is that being solid pine, it will naturally show knots and grain, contributing to its rustic charm but may not suit minimalist decors. This bookcase features a hand-waxed finish, distinctive Mexican-inspired black metal fittings, and a sturdy build designed for easy home assembly.

Troubleshooting

Bookcase wobbles after assembly

Ensure all screws and fittings are tightened securely. Check that the bookcase is placed on a level surface. If the floor is uneven, consider using shims under the base.

Missing parts during assembly

Double-check all packaging materials. Contact Mercers Furniture customer support with your order details and the specific part number from the instructions.

Wood surface has visible imperfections

This is a natural characteristic of solid pine and contributes to the rustic charm. Minor dents or knots are part of the design and will not affect structural integrity.

Difficulty aligning screw holes

Loosen nearby screws slightly to allow for adjustment, then realign the holes and re-tighten all screws gradually. Do not force screws.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This bookcase is delivered flat-packed. Assembly requires a Phillips head screwdriver (not included) and adherence to the provided step-by-step instructions. Ensure you have a clear, spacious area for assembly. It's recommended to have a second person assist for larger steps to ensure stability and prevent damage.

Compatibility:

  • Environment: Best suited for indoor environments. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or high humidity, which can affect solid wood.
  • Placement: Place on a level surface to ensure stability. Anti-tip hardware is recommended for safety, especially in homes with children or pets (sold separately).

Care:

  • Cleaning: Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For more thorough cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth and wipe dry immediately. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the wax finish.
  • Maintenance: The hand-waxed finish may benefit from occasional re-application of furniture wax (compatible with pine and wax finishes) to maintain its luster and protection. Follow the wax product's instructions for application.
