Troubleshooting
Pot appears less sturdy than expected
Ensure the inner pot is correctly seated within the main pot. For outdoor use, consider placing heavier stones or gravel at the bottom for added stability, especially in windy areas.
White surface shows dirt easily
Wipe the pot regularly with a damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a mild soap solution and rinse with clean water. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Wood-plastic composite texture seems rough
The visible wood chips are a characteristic of the material. If any areas feel particularly rough, a very fine-grit sandpaper can be used cautiously on the specific spot, but be aware this may alter the finish.
Inner pot doesn't fit perfectly
Check that you are using the correct inner pot for the main pot. Minor variations can occur; ensure the main pot is on a level surface before inserting the inner pot.
