Maintenance
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your dresser:
- Cleaning the Frame and Top: Wipe the steel frame and wood top with a dry, soft cloth. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed immediately by a dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning Fabric Drawers: The fabric drawers can be spot cleaned with a mild soap and water solution. Allow them to air dry completely before returning them to the unit. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
- Regular Checks: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight. Tighten if necessary.
Troubleshooting
- Unit is Wobbly: Ensure the unit is on a flat, level surface. Adjust the leveling feet at the bottom of the frame until stability is achieved. Check that all assembly screws are securely tightened.
- Drawers Do Not Slide Smoothly: Ensure the drawers are correctly inserted into their respective slots. Check for any obstructions within the frame or if the drawer is overloaded or unevenly packed.
- Damaged Fabric Drawer: While the fabric is durable, excessive force or sharp objects can cause damage. Replacement drawers may be available from the manufacturer.
