How to use

If the cabinet will be used under a sink or to house a built-in appliance, prepare necessary cutouts and plumbing/electrical connections before final installation and ensure seals and fittings protect the cabinet from water exposure.

What to consider before purchase

• Check the cabinet's external dimensions and ensure they match your kitchen layout and adjoining units

Usage recommendations

Place heavier items close to the base to reduce stress on fixings, avoid direct contact with spilled water and use appropriate liners or trays under sinks to extend the life of the Sonoma Oak finish. Regular cleaning with a damp cloth and mild detergent will help maintain the appearance; avoid abrasive cleaners and prolonged exposure to moisture.
