Troubleshooting

Common Failure Modes

Surface damage (heat marks, water rings, scratches) is the most frequent issue. Wobbly legs occur if hardware loosens over time.

Maintenance

View all →

Level table and check floor protection

Verify the table sits flat without rocking every 3 months. Replace worn felt pads on legs to protect flooring. Adjustable leveling feet can compensate for uneven floors.

Polish Wood

Polishing nourishes the wood and protects the finish from drying out.

Protect and maintain surface finish

Use placemats and trivets consistently. Apply paste wax to wood surfaces every 4-6 months. For extending tables, clean and wax the leaf mechanisms to ensure smooth operation.

Tighten pedestal or leg hardware

Check all bolts and mounting hardware quarterly. Dining tables endure significant lateral stress from daily use. Loose legs can crack the mounting block if not addressed promptly.
