Troubleshooting
Crate feels wobbly or unstable after setup.
Ensure all four corner panels are fully and securely clicked into their respective slots. Gently press each corner again until you hear a definitive 'click' to confirm proper engagement.
Items are falling through the perforated sides.
The perforated design is intentional. For very small items like pens or loose coins, consider placing them in a smaller container or pouch inside the crate to prevent them from slipping through the holes.
Difficulty folding the crate flat for storage.
Gently unlock the corner panels by applying slight pressure in the opposite direction of the click. The sides should then collapse inward. Do not force the panels, as this may cause damage.
