Maintenance and Care

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your NÄMMARÖ chair.

• Cleaning: Wipe clean with a mild soap solution. Dry thoroughly with a clean, dry cloth.
• Wood Treatment: To prevent the surface from drying out and cracking, and to prevent moisture from penetrating the wood, re-stain the furniture regularly, for example, once or twice a year.
• Storage: Store the furniture in a cool, dry place indoors when not in use for extended periods, especially during winter months. If stored outdoors, cover with a waterproof cover.
• Inspection: Periodically check all screws and fittings and re-tighten as necessary to ensure stability.
