Troubleshooting

Wobbly stool

Ensure all joints are secure. If the wobble persists, check if the floor is uneven or if any part of the stool is damaged. Minor wobbles may be corrected with felt pads on the legs.

Wood finish appears dull

Clean the surface with a damp cloth and allow it to dry completely. Consider applying a suitable wood polish or conditioner specifically designed for pine furniture.

Scratches or dents on the surface

Minor surface scratches can sometimes be buffed out with a fine-grit sandpaper (follow wood grain) and then re-finished with a matching stain or clear coat. For deeper damage, professional repair may be necessary.
