Troubleshooting
Bookcase arrives damaged or has cosmetic flaws.
As the item is marked as fragile, inspect carefully upon delivery. Contact customer support immediately with details and photos of the damage for resolution.
Drawers are stiff or difficult to open/close.
Ensure the bookcase is on a level surface. Check for any obstructions within the drawer runners. If the issue persists, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant on the runners might help.
