Care and Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your ZenStyle Storage Chest, follow these care guidelines:

• Cleaning: Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as they may damage the finish. The premium medium-density fiberboards are designed for easy cleaning and durability.
