6. Maintenance & Care
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your dresser, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the surface with a dry cloth. For tougher spots, a damp cloth can be used, followed immediately by a dry cloth to prevent moisture damage. The P2 grade engineered wood has a waterproof surface for easy cleaning.
