Troubleshooting
Chair wobbles
Ensure the seat shell is securely attached to the base and that all components are tightened correctly. Check if the chair is placed on an even surface.
Wood finish appears dull
Use a wood polish specifically designed for treated wood surfaces. Avoid silicone-based polishes. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.
