Assembly & care
Putting it together, tuning the rails, and looking after the finish.
Caring for your Zola finishSoft dry or barely damp cloth, mild dish soap and water when it needs more, nothing stronger — and the visible grain and lighter lines in Cerused Oak are intentional, not a defect.How long assembly takes and what you needCustomer-assembled, and much easier with a second person — mainly for flipping the table upright once the legs are on.My assembly hardware never arrivedCheck the leg and frame cartons first — hardware ships packed with them, not loose. If it genuinely isn't there, we send a replacement set free, no return.My table wobbles or feels unevenAlmost always hardware that isn't fully tightened — and the one people miss is the bolt that runs down through the table surface into the leg.Protecting your table surfaceThe play mat takes the wear, cup holders keep drinks off the surface entirely, and lifting rather than dragging avoids most of the rest.Tuning your Pangea after assemblyPangea rails are modular, so they often need a short alignment pass out of the box — tighten the section bolts snug, flip the table, align the rails, then fully tighten.Using your table for diningYes — that's what the Table Topper Set is for. Use trivets under hot dishes; the surface is coated against spills but not against direct heat.Where are my assembly instructions?Reach out through our contact page at zolamod.com/pages/contact-us with your order number and we'll send the assembly instructions for your exact model — and if you're mid-assembly and stuck on a step, tell us which one.Where is the assembly hardware?The assembly hardware ships with the table, and on larger tables it can be tucked in with the legs or frame hardware rather than loose in the main box — if you can't find it, send a photo and your order number through our contact page at zolamod.com/pages/contact-us.
