Troubleshooting
Desk is wobbly after assembly
Ensure all screws and bolts are tightened securely. Check if the desk is placed on an even surface. If wobbling persists, re-examine the assembly steps for any misalignments.
Drawers are stiff or do not close properly
Check for any obstructions inside the drawer runners. Ensure the drawer sides are correctly aligned. You may need to slightly adjust the drawer runners or the drawer box itself.
Wood finish appears dull
Dust the desk thoroughly with a dry cloth. If needed, use a wood-specific cleaner or a lightly damp cloth, followed by immediate drying. Avoid abrasive cleaning methods.
