Troubleshooting
Shelf is wobbly when free-standing
Ensure the shelf is placed on a flat, level surface. Check that all construction components (if any) are securely fastened.
Items slide off the shelf easily
Consider using non-slip shelf liner or small display stands for items prone to sliding.
Paint chipping or scratching
Handle with care. For minor chips, touch-up paint might be an option, but avoid abrasive cleaning methods.
Wall mounting feels insecure
Verify that the correct wall fixings for your wall type have been used and are properly installed. Ensure the shelf is not overloaded beyond its intended capacity.
