Troubleshooting
Planter seems unstable when empty
Ensure the planter is placed on a level surface. It is designed to gain stability once filled with soil and plants.
Water is not draining
Check if the drainage plug is removed. If it is removed, ensure the drainage holes themselves are not obstructed by soil or debris.
Exterior finish appears dull or spotted
Gently wipe the surface with a damp, soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers which can damage the finish.
Bulging sides noticed
While the reinforced sides are designed to prevent this, significant overfilling or extreme pressure could cause minor deformation. Ensure soil is added gradually and not compacted excessively.
