• Cleaning: Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that may damage the finish.
• Spills: Clean spills immediately to prevent staining.
• Sunlight Exposure: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent fading or discoloration of the wood finish.
• Humidity: Maintain a stable humidity level in the room to prevent wood from warping or cracking.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your dresser, please refer to the following common solutions:

• Sticky Drawers: Ensure drawers are not overloaded. Check that the drawer slides are clean and free of debris. A small amount of silicone lubricant can be applied to the slides if needed.
