Troubleshooting
Lids do not close properly
Ensure that items inside are not obstructing the lids and that the internal tray is seated correctly.
Fabric appears creased or damaged
Gently smooth the fabric. For minor creasing, a very low-heat iron on a protective cloth might be cautiously applied, but test in an inconspicuous area first. Avoid direct heat.
Handles feel loose
Check that the handles are securely attached to the box's sides. If they are loose, the stitching may need reinforcement, or the handle attachment point may be compromised.
