Troubleshooting
Planter arrived on a pallet
Be prepared to dispose of or repurpose the pallet yourself, as it may not be collected after delivery.
Water pooling despite drainage hole
Ensure the drainage hole is not blocked by soil or debris. If the planter is on a solid surface, ensure there is a slight slope away from it or use additional saucers to elevate it further for better drainage.
Surface marks on the glossy finish
Wipe down with a damp, soft cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly.
