FAQs

1. Can the chair feel flexible or springy after assembly?

Yes, a slight springy feel is normal due to the cantilever wooden frame design. As long as all bolts are fully tightened, this flex does not affect stability. Recheck fasteners if movement feels excessive.

2. What should be checked if the chair doesn’t sit level on the floor?

Place the chair on a flat surface and confirm both curved frames are evenly aligned. Loosen the long bolts slightly, realign the frame, then retighten evenly. Uneven tightening is the most common cause.

3. Is it normal for bolts to loosen after initial use?

Minor loosening can occur after the first few uses as the frame settles. Retighten all bolts after a few days of use. Periodic checks every few months help maintain firmness.
