- Humidity: Bamboo is sensitive to extreme changes in humidity. Maintain a stable room temperature and humidity level to prevent warping or cracking.
- Sunlight: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause the bamboo to fade or dry out.
- Hardware: Periodically check and tighten all screws and fasteners to ensure the cabinet remains stable and secure.
