Care and Maintenance

Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your AKORD K120 chest of drawers.

• Cleaning: Wipe the surface with a soft, dry, or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or excessive moisture, as these can damage the laminate finish.
• Spills: Clean up spills immediately to prevent staining or damage to the wood-engineered material.
• Drawer Runners: Periodically check the metal drawer runners for smooth operation. If they become stiff, a small amount of silicone spray lubricant can be applied (avoiding contact with wood surfaces).
• Sunlight Exposure: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent fading or discoloration of the finish.
• Temperature and Humidity: Maintain a stable room temperature and humidity level to prevent warping or cracking of the wood-engineered panels.
