4. Maintenance and Care

Proper care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of your vanity.

• Cleaning the Cabinet: Wipe the wood surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or excessive moisture, as these can damage the finish.
• Cleaning the Mirror: Use a standard glass cleaner and a soft, lint-free cloth. Spray cleaner onto the cloth, not directly onto the mirror, to prevent liquid from seeping into the frame edges.
• Hardware Care: The brushed copper finish hardware can be cleaned with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid chemical cleaners that may tarnish the finish.
• Spills: Immediately wipe up any water spills or moisture from the vanity surfaces to prevent water damage or staining.
• Humidity: Maintain a consistent humidity level in your bathroom to prevent wood from warping or cracking.

5. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter.

• Drawers or Doors Not Closing Properly:
  • Check if the vanity is level. Uneven surfaces can cause misalignment.
  • Inspect hinges and drawer slides for any obstructions or loose screws. Tighten screws if necessary.
• Loose Hardware:
  • Periodically check all screws and fasteners for tightness. Gently tighten any that have become loose. Do not overtighten.
• Minor Scratches or Dents:
  • For minor imperfections, touch-up pens or furniture repair kits matching the white finish may be used. Consult a professional for significant damage.
• Water Leaks:
  • If you observe water leaks, immediately turn off the water supply. Inspect all plumbing connections (faucet, drain, P-trap) for proper sealing and tightness. Re-tighten or re-seal as needed.
