Troubleshooting
Basin seems unstable after installation
Ensure all mounting hardware is securely fastened and that the countertop provides adequate support. Consult a professional installer if concerns persist.
Water is splashing excessively
Check that the faucet is not set to an excessively high flow rate. The basin's shape is designed to minimize splashing, but extreme water pressure can still cause overflow. Ensure the basin is level.
Difficulty cleaning the textured exterior
Use a soft brush or cloth with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Rinse thoroughly with water and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Due to its weight (approximately 33.07 pounds), professional installation is recommended to ensure secure mounting. Verify that your countertop or vanity can support the basin's weight and is compatible with countertop washbasin installations. Ensure proper sealing around the edges to prevent water ingress.
Compatibility: This washbasin is designed for countertop installation and is compatible with standard basin taps and drainage systems. Ensure your chosen tap height and reach are suitable for the basin's dimensions and depth.
Care: Clean the interior with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which could damage the smooth finish. For the exterior textured surface, use a damp cloth and a gentle, non-abrasive cleaner. Periodically check seals and connections for integrity.
