FAQs
1. Why are my drawers sticking after assembly?
Check that the runners are aligned and screws aren’t over-tightened, then apply a light silicone spray on the tracks and slide the drawer slowly to reset alignment.
2. How can I stop my dresser from scratching the floor?
Attach felt pads to the legs to protect hard floors, lift the dresser with two people instead of dragging, and use coasters on carpets for extra stability.
3. What should I do if a panel has minor scratches?
Buff gently with a microfiber cloth, cover marks with a wood-repair marker in a similar shade, and for deeper scratches use a filler to restore the surface.
4. Can I move the chest after assembly?
Empty the drawers completely, lift the chest with two people holding it from the base, and avoid dragging to prevent joint stress and floor damage.
5. How do I keep drawers sliding smoothly long-term?
Wipe the runners clean with a dry cloth, apply a thin layer of wax or silicone spray to reduce friction, and check screws regularly to keep them tight.
