Troubleshooting

Planter wobbles after assembly.

Ensure all screws and fittings are tightened securely. Check that the planter is placed on a level surface. If the ground is uneven, consider using shims.

Wood appears dry or faded.

Apply a wood sealant or preservative specifically designed for outdoor furniture. Reapply annually or as needed based on weather exposure.

Water pooling in the main well.

Ensure the plastic liner has drainage holes (if not pre-drilled, carefully add a few). Avoid overwatering plants and ensure the planter's location does not collect standing water.

Difficulty assembling parts.

Refer back to the assembly instructions. Ensure parts are correctly oriented. Contact customer support if parts appear to be missing or damaged.
