To care for and maintain the evolur 928 Stilnovo Mid Century Dressers, it is important to follow these guidelines:

1. Room Climate Control: Wood is porous and responds to its environment. It is recommended to control the humidity levels in the room to prevent extreme variations. The ideal temperature for the furniture is between 65 and 75 degrees Fahrenheit, with a relative humidity between 35 and 40 percent.

2. Avoid Direct Sunlight: Keep the furniture out of direct sunlight, as ultraviolet rays can fade colors and cause cracks in the finish. White finishes may naturally yellow over time, and some woods may darken naturally as well.

3. Sticking Doors and Drawers: Minor changes in temperature and humidity may cause doors and drawers to swell, making them difficult to open or close. This is normal and will adjust back to normal over time. In the meantime, you can use a dehumidifier or rub candle wax or paraffin on the sticking sides.

4. Proper Storage: If you need to store the furniture for any period of time, avoid storing it in a damp basement or hot dry attic. Allow air movement around the furniture and do not stack anything on top of it.

5. General Care: Protect the furniture surface from hot or extremely cold items by using coasters. Avoid using synthetic fabric under accessories or lamps. Protect the tops from pens, markers, and crayons. Oils from potpourri and scented items can damage the furniture finish. Do not drag items across the surface. Rotate accessories and lamps to allow the surface to breathe. Avoid over-polishing the furniture, as it can distort the natural finish. Do not wax the furniture, as wax build-up can destroy the natural finish. When moving the furniture, always lift it instead of pushing or dragging to avoid damage to the legs. Keep the furniture level to ensure doors and drawers open and close freely. Clean with a damp cloth using mild soap, and avoid using abrasive cleaners.
