FAQs

Does the Ptilu bookcase require wall mounting?

While the unit is stable, it is always recommended to use a wall-anchor kit for taller pieces of furniture, especially in homes with small children.

What is the material of the doors?

The door panels are crafted with authentic rattan canework, providing the signature vintage aesthetic.

Can I paint the bookcase?

The bookcase comes with a pre-applied water-based finish. If you choose to repaint, you would need to lightly sand the surface first, though this may void your product warranty.

What does FSC-certified mean?

FSC-certified wood means the materials are sourced from forests that are managed in an environmentally, socially, and economically responsible manner.

Are the shelves adjustable?

No, the shelves are fixed to ensure the structural integrity of the rounded design.

Troubleshooting

Doors are misaligned after assembly

Adjust the hinges using the adjustment screws on the hinge plate to shift the doors horizontally or vertically.

Unit feels wobbly on uneven floors

Check that the floor is level and ensure all leg bolts are tightened. If necessary, use felt furniture pads or levelers under the pine legs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The bookcase arrives as a flat-pack product and requires full assembly. It is recommended to assemble the unit near its final location to avoid moving it while heavy. Use a manual screwdriver rather than a high-torque power drill to prevent damaging the MDF.

Compatibility: The neutral beige color allows it to coordinate well with both light-toned natural woods and bold, colorful accent walls.

Care: Clean the surface using a soft, lint-free cloth lightly dampened with water or a mild, wood-safe cleaner. Avoid harsh chemical sprays or abrasive sponges which may damage the water-based paint finish or snag the delicate rattan canework. Dust the rattan doors regularly to keep the natural weave looking fresh.
