Troubleshooting

Chair wobbles or feels unstable.

Ensure the chair is placed on a level surface. If the wobbling persists, check if any screws or joints are loose and gently tighten them. Do not overtighten.

Wood finish appears dull or dry.

Apply a small amount of furniture polish or wax suitable for beech wood using a soft cloth. Buff gently to restore sheen.

Upholstery has a minor stain.

Consult the specific cleaning instructions for your upholstery type. For most fabrics, gently blot the stain with a clean, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid harsh scrubbing.

Seat cushion feels less firm over time.

This is normal wear for upholstered furniture. While the padding is designed for comfort and durability, some settling may occur. Ensure even weight distribution when sitting.
