FAQs
Does the Swan Retro 6 Cup Mug Tree require assembly?
No, the mug tree comes fully assembled and is ready to use right out of the box. Simply unbox it and place it on your desired kitchen surface.
What type of mugs can I use with this mug tree?
It is designed to hold most standard-sized mugs and cups. While it accommodates a variety, very large, unusually heavy, or irregularly shaped mugs might not fit perfectly or could impact the overall stability.
How do I clean the mug tree?
To clean your mug tree, simply wipe it down with a soft, damp cloth. For best results, dry it immediately with a soft, dry cloth to prevent water marks and maintain its shine. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
What are the dimensions of the mug tree?
The mug tree measures approximately 410mm (Height) x 150mm (Depth) x 150mm (Width). Its compact size makes it suitable for various kitchen counter spaces.
Will this mug tree scratch my kitchen counter?
No, the Swan Retro 6 Cup Mug Tree features a chrome-finish base with a soft underliner specifically designed to protect your kitchen surfaces from scratches and provide enhanced stability.
Is the mug tree heavy and stable?
Yes, it is constructed from durable materials like stainless steel, chrome, and iron, providing a sturdy and stable base for your mugs. The design is intended to securely hold up to six standard mugs.
Troubleshooting
Mugs feel unstable or wobbly on the branches.
Ensure the mug tree is placed on a completely flat and stable countertop. Check that all mugs are balanced correctly on their respective branches. If the issue persists, verify that the mugs are not excessively large or heavy for the stand's design, which could affect its center of gravity. Distribute weight evenly if possible.
The mug tree appears to scratch my countertop.
Confirm that the soft underliner on the base is intact and properly positioned. The underliner is specifically designed to prevent scratches. If it's damaged or missing, contact customer support. Always lift, rather than drag, the mug tree when moving it on sensitive surfaces.
The mug tree looks dull or has visible water spots.
Clean the mug tree regularly with a soft, damp cloth and then dry it immediately with a soft, dry cloth or microfiber towel. This practice helps to restore its shine and prevent water spot buildup, especially on the chrome-plated components.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
The Swan Retro 6 Cup Mug Tree requires no assembly; it arrives fully constructed and ready for immediate use. Simply unbox and place it on a flat, stable kitchen surface. Ensure the chosen spot allows easy access to the mugs and doesn't obstruct other kitchen activities.
Compatibility
This mug tree is designed to be compatible with most standard-sized mugs and cups. Mugs with a typical base diameter and height will fit comfortably on the branches. Very large, exceptionally heavy, or unusually shaped mugs might not sit as securely or could affect the overall balance. For optimal stability, ensure the base is placed on an even surface.
Care
To care for your mug tree and maintain its stylish appearance, periodically wipe it down with a soft, damp cloth. For any smudges or fingerprints, a microfiber cloth can help restore its shine. Avoid using:
- Abrasive cleaners
- Scouring pads
- Harsh chemical sprays
These can damage the chrome and stainless steel finishes. Always dry thoroughly after cleaning to prevent water spots and keep the metallic surfaces sparkling.
