Operating Instructions

Using the Flip Drawers

The Smuxee shoe cabinet features two flip drawers designed for easy access and space-saving storage. To open a drawer, gently pull the handle outwards. The drawer will tilt forward, revealing two levels of storage for your shoes.

Adjusting Shoe Panels

Each flip drawer contains two levels of storage with adjustable panels. These panels can be moved up or down to accommodate different shoe heights, such as flats, sneakers, or mid-calf boots. For taller items like heels, the panels can be completely removed.

Capacity

The cabinet can store approximately 8-15 pairs of shoes, depending on their size and style. Each drawer typically holds 4-8 pairs. Larger shoes (e.g., men's size 11.5-13) may require adjusting or removing panels for optimal fit.

Maintenance

Cleaning

Wipe the cabinet surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the walnut finish. For spills, clean immediately to prevent staining.

Care

Keep the cabinet away from direct sunlight and excessive moisture to prevent warping or fading. Regularly check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary.

Troubleshooting

• Cabinet feels unstable: Ensure the anti-tipping device is correctly installed and securely anchored to a wall stud. Check all assembly screws for tightness.
• Drawers do not open/close smoothly: Verify that the flip-drawer mechanisms are installed correctly and that no shoes are obstructing their movement. Ensure all internal panels are properly seated.
• Difficulty during assembly: Refer back to the step-by-step assembly video and instructions. Ensure all parts are correctly oriented and that the correct hardware is used for each step.
