Troubleshooting
Hutch wobbles after assembly
Ensure all screws and bolts are tightened securely. Check that all panels are aligned correctly before fully tightening.
Removable tray is difficult to slide
Check for any debris or misalignment in the tray runners. Ensure the wood has not warped. Lightly sand the edges if necessary.
Animals seem uncomfortable with the wood texture
Ensure the wood finish is fully cured. Add comfortable bedding like straw or hay to the interior.
