How should I clean and maintain the bookshelf?
Dust with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth and wipe dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Does the bookshelf come assembled?

Can I choose the specific wood grain or color I receive?

What is the weight capacity of the shelves?
While specific weight capacities are not provided, the solid reclaimed wood construction is designed to be sturdy and support a reasonable amount of books and decorative items. Distribute weight evenly.
Troubleshooting
Wobbling or instability
Ensure the bookshelf is placed on a level surface. Check that all screws and fittings are securely tightened. Adjust any leveling feet if present.
Doors not closing properly
Verify that the cabinet is square and not leaning. Check the hinge alignment and adjust if necessary. Ensure no obstructions are preventing the doors from closing.
Visible imperfections in the wood
