FAQs

What are the full dimensions of the island when the tabletop is extended?

When the tabletop is extended, the length increases from 120 cm to 80 cm, making the total length 120 cm (plus 40 cm extension) by 80 cm wide by 95 cm high.

How much weight can the tabletop support?

While specific weight limits are not provided, the island is constructed from high-quality MDF and designed for general kitchen use, including food preparation. Avoid placing excessively heavy items on it.

Can the casters be removed if I want to place the island permanently?

Yes, the casters are typically designed to be removable. However, consult the assembly manual for specific instructions on caster removal and ensure the unit is stable without them.

Is assembly difficult and what tools are required?

Assembly is required and typically involves standard tools like a Phillips head screwdriver. Instructions are provided, but it may be easier with two people. Complexities can vary, so reviewing the manual beforehand is advisable.

What is the warranty period for this product?

Warranty information is usually detailed in the product documentation or with the purchase receipt. Please refer to those materials for specific warranty terms and duration.

Can the spice rack or towel rail be mounted on the other side?

The mounting options for accessories like the spice rack and towel rail depend on the pre-drilled holes and design. Refer to the assembly instructions to confirm if alternative mounting positions are possible.

How do I clean the wood-effect tabletop?

Wipe the wood-effect tabletop with a soft, damp cloth and a mild detergent. Dry it immediately afterward to maintain its finish and prevent water damage.

Troubleshooting

Unit wobbles or feels unstable.

Ensure all screws and fittings are securely tightened. Check that the lockable casters are engaged properly and that the unit is on a level surface.

Drawers or cabinet doors do not close smoothly.

Verify that the unit is level and that there are no obstructions. Check the alignment of the drawer runners or hinges.

Extendable tabletop is stiff or difficult to move.

Check for any obstructions along the runners. Ensure the locking mechanism (if applicable) is fully disengaged. A small amount of silicone lubricant may be applied to the runners if recommended in the assembly manual.

Casters are difficult to lock or unlock.

Ensure the casters are clean and free from debris. Check that the locking mechanism is functioning correctly; if damaged, replacement casters might be needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Assembly is required. All necessary hardware and instructions are typically included. It is recommended to have a Phillips head screwdriver for assembly. Lay out all parts and hardware before beginning to ensure everything is present. Follow the step-by-step instructions carefully, paying attention to the orientation of panels and the placement of casters.

Compatibility: This kitchen island is designed as a standalone unit and does not require electrical or plumbing connections. Its dimensions are suitable for most standard kitchen layouts, but measure your space, especially when considering the extended tabletop.

Care: The cabinet body, made of MDF, should be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture. The wood-effect tabletop can be wiped clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent; dry immediately. Ensure the metal handles are kept dry to prevent rust. Periodically check that all screws and fittings are tightened, especially the caster mounts.
