The Wood Box Coffee Table is available in oiled oak and black lacquered oak.

Does the table require assembly?

No, the Wood Box Coffee Table arrives fully assembled.

What are the dimensions of the table?

Please refer to the product specifications for exact dimensions. It is designed as a compact piece.

Is the Wood Box Coffee Table suitable for outdoor use?

No, this table is designed for indoor use only to preserve the integrity of the wood and its finish.

How should I clean the black lacquered oak finish?

Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth using mild soap and water. Dry immediately with a clean cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Is the wood treated with any finishes?

Yes, it is available in either a natural oil finish or a black lacquer finish, both designed to protect and enhance the wood.

Troubleshooting

Wood surface appears dull or dry.

For oiled oak finishes, reapply a suitable wood oil following the manufacturer's recommendations. For lacquered finishes, ensure no harsh cleaners were used; try a mild wood polish designed for lacquered surfaces.

Minor scratches or scuffs on the surface.

For oiled oak, light sanding with fine-grit sandpaper followed by re-oiling may help. For lacquered finishes, minor scuffs might be buffed out with a soft cloth; deeper scratches may require professional refinishing.

Uneven surface or wobbling.

Ensure the table is placed on a level floor. If the floor is uneven, consider using felt pads on the bottom of the table legs. As the table is a single block construction, wobbling is unlikely unless the floor is significantly uneven.
