While detailed step-by-step instructions are provided in the included instruction booklet, here is a general overview of the assembly process:

1. Unpack and Identify Parts: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Lay them out on a clean, soft surface to prevent scratches. Identify each part using the provided parts list in your instruction booklet.
2. Assemble the Frame: Begin by connecting the main vertical and horizontal metal frame pieces according to the diagrams in your manual. Use the provided screws and Allen wrench to secure connections. Do not overtighten until all frame pieces are loosely assembled.
3. Attach the Top Panel: Once the main frame is stable, attach the engineered wooden top panel to the top of the frame using the designated screws.
4. Insert Drawer Supports: Install any additional crossbars or supports for the fabric drawers as indicated in the instructions.
5. Assemble Fabric Drawers: Each fabric drawer typically involves inserting a bottom panel and a front handle. Ensure the handles are securely attached.
6. Insert Drawers: Place the assembled fabric drawers into their respective compartments in the frame.
7. Adjust Feet: The dresser features adjustable feet. Adjust them to ensure the dresser is level and stable on uneven ground.
8. Secure with Anti-Tip Kit: Attach the anti-tip kit to the back of the dresser and to a wall stud using the provided hardware. This is a critical safety step.
9. Final Tightening: Once fully assembled and positioned, go back and securely tighten all screws and bolts.

Operating Instructions

• Drawer Use: Gently pull and push the fabric drawers to open and close them. Avoid forcing them.
• Loading Drawers: Distribute items evenly within each drawer. Avoid placing heavy or sharp objects that could damage the fabric or cause the drawer to sag.
• Top Surface: The engineered wooden top is suitable for light items such as mobile phones, desk lamps, books, decorations, and alarm clocks. Do not exceed the maximum load weight of 25 lb on the top surface.
• Portability: While the dresser is portable, it is recommended to empty the drawers before moving it to prevent damage and make it easier to relocate.

Maintenance and Care

• Cleaning: Clean the dresser with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn spots on the fabric drawers, a slightly damp cloth with mild soap can be used, but test in an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Dusting: Regularly dust the wooden top and metal frame with a soft cloth.
• Drawer Care: If a drawer becomes dirty, it can often be removed and spot cleaned. Ensure it is completely dry before returning it to the frame.
• Hardware Check: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary.
• Avoid Moisture: Keep the dresser away from excessive moisture or direct sunlight to prevent damage to the fabric and wood.

Troubleshooting

Dresser feels wobbly:

Ensure all assembly screws are tightened. Adjust the leveling feet at the bottom of the frame to stabilize the dresser on uneven floors.

Drawers do not slide smoothly:

Check if the drawers are correctly inserted into the frame. Ensure they are not overloaded or unevenly weighted. Verify that the frame itself is not warped or damaged.

Fabric drawers appear saggy:

This usually indicates overloading. Reduce the weight of items in the drawer and distribute them more evenly. Ensure the bottom support panel inside the drawer is correctly placed.

Missing parts during assembly:

Do not proceed with assembly. Contact customer support immediately with your model number and a description of the missing parts.

User Tips

• For optimal stability, always place the dresser on a flat, level surface.
• When assembling, loosely tighten all screws first, then fully tighten them once the entire frame is put together. This helps ensure proper alignment.
• Consider using drawer organizers within the fabric drawers to maximize space and keep items tidy.
• If moving the dresser, it's best to remove all drawers and the top panel first to reduce weight and prevent damage.
