Troubleshooting
Planter feels unstable when empty.
Ensure the internal drainage insert is properly seated. For added stability, especially in windy outdoor locations, consider using heavier soil or placing a layer of gravel at the bottom before adding soil.
Water is not draining effectively.
Check that the drainage holes in the internal insert (if applicable) or the base of the pot are not blocked. Clear any obstructions. If planting directly into the main pot without the insert, ensure adequate drainage material like gravel is used at the bottom.
The concrete-effect finish appears scuffed.
Gently wipe the affected area with a damp cloth. For minor scuffs, a very mild, non-abrasive cleaner might be used sparingly. Test in an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your Urbn-Living Urbi Square Planter is straightforward. Unpack the planter and remove the internal drainage insert. The insert fits snugly inside the main pot. You can then add your desired potting soil and plants directly into the insert or the main pot, depending on your preference for soil volume and drainage needs. The planter is compatible with a wide range of plants, from flowers and herbs to shrubs and small trees, suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments. To care for your planter, wipe it down periodically with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, as these may damage the finish. For outdoor use, ensure that drainage is adequate to prevent water from pooling around the base, especially in freezing conditions where water expansion could cause damage.
