Troubleshooting
Drawers are stiff or sticking
Check for any obstructions inside the drawer runners or on the drawer sides. Ensure the chest is on a level surface. If newly assembled, the runners may need a little time to settle.
Product arrived with damaged parts
Contact customer support immediately with details of the damaged part and your order information. Do not attempt to assemble if critical parts are damaged.
Finish appears dull or scratched
For the lacquered body, use a mild furniture polish suitable for lacquered wood. For the waxed top, follow care instructions and consider reapplying furniture wax if necessary.
Chest wobbles or is unstable

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This chest is designed for easy home assembly. Ensure you have a clear space to work in and follow the provided instruction manual carefully. Basic tools, such as a screwdriver, may be required. It is recommended to have a second person assist with assembly for stability, especially when attaching larger components.
Compatibility:
This chest is a standalone furniture piece. Its grey, country-style aesthetic makes it compatible with a wide range of interior decor styles, particularly those favouring a rustic, farmhouse, or traditional look. It pairs well with wooden furniture and neutral colour palettes.
Care:
- Body (Lacquer Finish): Clean the lacquered surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish. Wipe dry immediately after cleaning.
- Top (Wax Finish): The hand-waxed top requires gentle care. Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For minor marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Periodically, the wax finish may benefit from reapplication of a suitable furniture wax to maintain its protective sheen and appearance, following product instructions.
- Drawers: Ensure drawers are not overloaded to maintain smooth operation and prevent strain on the runners.
