FAQs

What material is the Tobs Magazine Basket made from?

The basket is handcrafted from durable Kubu rattan, known for its strength and natural aesthetic.

Does the basket require any assembly?

No, the Tobs Magazine Basket comes fully assembled and ready to use.

How should I clean the basket?

Dust regularly with a dry cloth. For cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth and ensure it dries thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals or soaking.

What are the dimensions of the basket?

Please refer to the product's specific dimensions listed on the retailer's page for exact measurements.

Is the grey finish prone to chipping?

The weathered grey finish is designed to be part of the natural aesthetic and is not prone to chipping like paint. However, avoid abrasive cleaning methods.

Can this basket be used outdoors?

This basket is intended for indoor use. Prolonged exposure to the elements can damage the natural rattan and its finish.

What is the purpose of the central divider?

The central divider is designed to keep your magazines, newspapers, or documents neatly separated and upright, preventing them from falling over.

Troubleshooting

Basket has a slight odor upon arrival.

This is common with natural rattan products. Air out the basket in a well-ventilated area for a few days. The odor should dissipate.

Woven strands appear loose or snagged.

Gently tuck any loose strands back into place. Avoid pulling on them. Minor imperfections are part of the handcrafted charm.

The weathered grey finish seems uneven.

This is a characteristic of the weathered finish, which is applied to highlight the natural texture of the rattan. It is not a defect.

Basket feels unstable.

Ensure the basket is placed on a flat, stable surface. Kubu rattan is flexible, but the base should be level for optimal stability.
