Troubleshooting
Bench feels wobbly after assembly.
Ensure all screws and bolts securing the legs are tightened firmly. Check that the bench is placed on an even surface. If issues persist, disassemble and reassemble, paying close attention to instructions.
Upholstery has a small stain.
Act quickly. Blot the stain gently with a clean, white cloth. For liquid spills, try to absorb as much as possible. For tougher stains, use a small amount of mild, diluted upholstery cleaner specifically for linen, applying it to a cloth first, not directly to the bench. Always test in an inconspicuous area.
Metal legs appear scratched or dull.
For light scratches, a metal polish or touch-up paint matching the leg finish can be used. For dullness, wipe with a soft cloth and a tiny amount of furniture wax or metal polish suitable for the specific metal type. Always clean legs thoroughly before applying any polish.
Bench doesn't fit well in the intended space.
Measure your space accurately before purchase. If the bench is too large, consider relocating it to a different room or a larger area of the current room. If it's too small, consider pairing it with other accent pieces to create a cohesive look.
