Operating Instructions
The Somdot 4-Drawer Storage Cabinet is designed for organizing clothing, linens, accessories, and other small items.
- Drawer Use: Gently pull the handles to open and push to close the fabric drawers. Avoid forcing drawers if they feel stuck.
- Weight Distribution: Distribute items evenly within the drawers to maintain balance and prevent strain on the fabric. Do not exceed the 10 lbs (4.5 kg) weight limit per drawer.
