FAQs
What tools are required for assembly?
Typically, assembly requires a Phillips head screwdriver and possibly a hammer for dowels. All necessary fittings are included with the flat-packed unit. We recommend having a soft surface (like a blanket or rug) to protect components during assembly.
How long does assembly usually take?
Assembly time can vary depending on individual experience, but on average, it may take 1-2 hours for one person. Having a second person can significantly speed up the process and make handling larger panels easier.
Is an anti-tip kit included?
Info needed: Please check the product packaging or instruction manual to confirm if an anti-tip kit is included. For safety, especially in households with children, it is highly recommended to secure the chest to a wall using appropriate anti-tip hardware.
Can the drawers be removed if needed?
Yes, the drawers can typically be removed from the `easy-glide metal runners`. Most runners have a small plastic lever or tab that needs to be pressed or lifted (one on each side) to disengage the drawer from the runner extension.
What is the weight limit for the top surface?
Info needed: The manufacturer does not specify a maximum weight limit for the top surface. However, it is designed for decorative items like lamps, photos, or small plants. Avoid placing excessively heavy items or electronic equipment that could exceed its structural integrity.
How should I clean the polished metal handles?
The `polished metal curved handles` can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap, then thoroughly dried. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or metal polishes that could damage the finish.
Troubleshooting
Drawers do not slide smoothly or get stuck.
Ensure the metal runners are correctly aligned and not bent. Check that all screws attaching the runners to both the frame and the drawer sides are tight. A silicone-based lubricant can be sparingly applied to the runners if necessary, but typically the easy-glide design should not require it.
The chest wobbles after assembly.
Verify that all cams, screws, and fittings throughout the entire unit are fully tightened. Ensure the chest is placed on a flat, level surface. If your floor is uneven, use furniture pads or shims under the feet to stabilize it.
Scratches or marks appear on the gloss finish.
Minor surface marks on the `high black gloss` finish can sometimes be buffed out gently with a microfiber cloth and a dedicated gloss furniture polish. For deeper scratches, touch-up pens or kits designed for black gloss furniture may be used, following product instructions carefully. Always use soft materials when cleaning or handling the chest to prevent new marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
This FWStyle 5 Drawer Chest is delivered `flat-packed` and requires `home assembly`.
- Unpack Carefully: Lay out all components on a clean, soft surface to prevent scratches. Identify all parts against the included instruction manual.
- Assemble Frame First: Begin by constructing the main `matt black frame` according to the step-by-step diagrams provided.
- Install Drawer Runners: Attach the `easy-glide metal runners` to the frame and drawer sides, ensuring they are properly aligned for smooth operation.
- Assemble Drawers: Construct each of the five drawers, installing the `bottom support bars` as instructed. Attach the `polished metal curved handles` once the drawers are built.
- Final Checks: Once assembled, ensure all cams and screws are securely tightened for stability. Place the chest on a level surface.
Compatibility
This chest's `contemporary and clean design` with `high black gloss` drawer fronts and a `matt black frame` makes it compatible with a wide range of modern and minimalist interior decors. Its dimensions (`W 70 x H 100 x D 40cm`) are suitable for bedrooms, living areas, or hallways where additional organized storage is needed.
Care
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your chest:
- Cleaning the Gloss: For the `high black gloss` drawer fronts, use a soft, damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Immediately wipe dry with a separate, clean, dry cloth to prevent water spots or streaks. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.
- Cleaning the Matt Frame: The `matt black frame` can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap, then dried thoroughly.
- Scratch Prevention: While the `melamine coating` is scratch-resistant, avoid dragging sharp or heavy objects across the surface. Always lift items rather than slide them.
- Hardware Maintenance: Periodically check the tightness of all screws and fittings, especially the `polished metal handles` and `easy-glide runners`, and tighten if necessary to ensure stability and smooth operation.
