Safety Information

Maintenance and Care

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your SMÅSTAD loft bed.

• Cleaning: Wipe surfaces clean with a damp cloth and a mild cleaner. Dry immediately with a clean cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
• Hardware Check: Periodically (e.g., every 3-6 months) check all assembly hardware (bolts, screws, connectors) and re-tighten if necessary. Loose hardware can compromise stability and safety.

Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your SMÅSTAD loft bed.

• Squeaking Noises:

  Solution: Squeaking often indicates loose hardware. Check and re-tighten all bolts and screws on the bed frame, especially around joints and connections. Ensure the bed is placed on a level surface.

• Wobbling or Instability:

  Solution: This is typically due to uneven assembly or loose fasteners. Re-check all connections and ensure they are securely tightened. Verify that the bed is placed on a flat, stable floor and is positioned flush against a wall.

• Drawers Not Sliding Smoothly:

  Solution: Check the drawer runners for any obstructions or misalignment. Ensure the drawers were assembled correctly and that all screws on the runners are tight. A small amount of silicone spray can improve smoothness if the runners are clean and aligned.

If you encounter issues not listed here or if solutions do not resolve the problem, please contact customer support.
