Troubleshooting

Chair feels wobbly after assembly.

Ensure all bolts and screws on the seat plate and base are securely tightened. Gently rock the chair to check for movement and re-tighten any loose connections. Verify that the gas lift is properly seated in the base.

Height adjustment lever is not working.

Check that the gas lift cylinder is fully inserted into the base and the seat mechanism. Ensure the lever is not obstructed and is engaging the gas lift mechanism correctly. Sometimes, sitting on the chair while pulling the lever down helps if it's stuck in an upward position, or standing up while pulling it up if it's stuck down.

Tilt function is not engaging or locking.

Confirm that the tilt tension knob (if present, usually underneath the seat) is not overtightened or too loose. Ensure the tilt lock lever is fully engaged or disengaged as desired. Check for any obstructions around the tilt mechanism under the seat.

Chair makes squeaking noises.

Squeaking often comes from loose connections. Re-tighten all assembly bolts, especially where the seat meets the mechanism and where the base components connect. A small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to pivot points (avoiding fabric) if tightening doesn't resolve it.

Care

To maintain the elegant appearance and longevity of your cream velvet chair:

  • Regular Dusting: Gently dust the velvet upholstery with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner with an upholstery attachment to prevent dust buildup.
  • Spot Cleaning: For spills or stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher stains, use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild, pH-neutral upholstery cleaner. Test in an inconspicuous area first. Do not saturate the fabric.
  • Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause the velvet color to fade.
