6. Maintenance
Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your VINGLI dresser.
- Cleaning: Wipe the dresser surface with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or excessive moisture, as these can damage the finish.

- Hardware Check: Periodically check all screws and fasteners to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain structural integrity.

- Temperature and Humidity: Maintain a stable room temperature and humidity level to prevent warping or cracking of the wood.

- Wobbly Dresser: Ensure the dresser is placed on a level surface. Check that all leg support bars and legs are securely tightened. Adjust the mending wedges if provided, for extra stability.
