Product Information
Full details
The Urbn-Living ARKA 8 Cube Storage Unit is an ideal organizational solution for homeowners and apartment dwellers looking to blend modern aesthetics with practical storage. Its standout feature is the unique, asymmetrical frame that provides a visual upgrade over standard boxy bookshelves, though it is important to note that the depth is limited to 28.5cm, making it better suited for smaller items rather than deep bins or large electronics.

Troubleshooting
Unit feels unstable or wobbly
Check that all fasteners are tightened securely and ensure the unit is positioned on a perfectly level floor surface.
Fabric drawers look wrinkled or misshapen
Ensure the base inserts are fully pushed to the bottom of the drawer to maintain structure, or lightly steam the non-woven fabric if creases are severe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Assembly of the ARKA unit requires standard tools and a flat surface to ensure all panels align correctly. It is recommended to perform the initial setup in the room where it will reside to avoid moving the fully constructed frame. To maintain the unit, wipe down the wooden components with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. The non-woven fabric drawers should be kept dry; if cleaning is necessary, use a lint roller or a lightly dampened cloth without harsh chemicals. Ensure the unit is placed on a level floor for maximum stability.
