Troubleshooting
Unit feels unstable or wobbly
Adjust the leveling feet at the base of the bookcase until the unit sits firmly against the floor.
Shelves are sagging under weight
Check that the shelf support pegs are fully inserted and that the shelf is not overloaded beyond its recommended capacity.
Difficulty aligning panels during assembly
Loosen all metal-to-metal fixings slightly, align the pieces, and then tighten them incrementally to maintain a square frame.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Assembly is straightforward thanks to the included metal-to-metal fixings, though it is recommended to have a second person assist with aligning the side panels to the solid wood back. Once assembled, ensure the unit is placed on a flat surface and use the adjustable feet to level the bookcase until it sits firmly without rocking. For routine care, simply wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth; the stain-resistant finish generally prevents water marks or ink stains from setting into the wood grain. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can strip the protective finish over time.
