Maintenance

To maintain the appearance and longevity of your SIMPLIHOME Warm Shaker End Table, follow these simple care instructions:

• Cleaning: Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or polishes that may damage the distressed grey lacquer finish.
• Spills: Immediately blot any spills with a clean, dry cloth to prevent staining or water damage.
• Heat and Moisture: Use coasters under beverages and hot pads under warm items to protect the tabletop surface. Avoid placing the table in direct sunlight or near heat sources to prevent warping or fading.
• Regular Checks: Periodically inspect all hardware and connections. Re-tighten any loose screws to ensure the table remains stable and secure.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your end table, please refer to the following common solutions:

• Table Wobbles: Ensure the table is on a level surface. Check that all leg connections and frame screws are securely tightened. Adjust leg levelers if present.
• Drawer Sticks or Doesn't Close Smoothly: Verify that the drawer glides are correctly installed and aligned. Check for any obstructions within the drawer tracks. Ensure the drawer box itself is assembled squarely.
• Loose Hardware: Over time, screws may loosen. Regularly check and tighten all fasteners with the appropriate tools. Do not overtighten.
• Surface Scratches/Dents: Minor scratches can sometimes be touched up with a wood repair marker matching the distressed grey finish. For deeper damage, professional repair may be required.
