The middle part where both halves meet doesn't go all the way down when unfolded even though both legs are set straight 90 degree. How to fix this?

My two are they same. Have not tried fixing them yet. If I get around to worrying about it, I will modify this post.

I puzzled over how to fold the rack as well. What worked for me was turning the rack upside down, then gently pulling the legs together.

Sounds like you don't have it extended enough. There should be three height levels. After you have expanded the base and attached the top, you extend each leg upward until it clicks into place. This is the lowest setting. You should be able to extend each leg two more "notches" if you will.

They do not sit at a right angle to one another. There is a slight curve to the whole set

We had the same problem. Then we realized that we had the bottom metal bars where the top ones go and vice versa. Make sure you have the right bars in the right places.

We had the same issues. My husband tried to fix it by putting in extra washers on the uneven leg. But it kept on coming off. He must have fixed it a couple of times before it finally stayed on. the best thing is to request the company to give you the correct sized legs.

It's been awhile since I put it together but I think I turned it upside down before the top was put onto the frame. The legs go in the position and you push each one outward. They should lock in place in the right position. I noticed mine were the same as you describe but I messed with one leg until it locked into place...then, the other one.

Make sure that you have clearance all the way around, If this is OK you may have an alignment problem from side to side. Look how it tracks over the full close and open movement, Try adjusting one side either back or front and see if this will help.

I extend the legs first and tighten nuts...this gives the stand some downward weight. Then loosen the turn knob at end of center post and the inner tube should advance freely. Sounds like there may be a dent or crimp in the tubing or a metal burr that's catching. I'd return for an exchange.

Carefully and patiently. I have the same problem each spring, and begin by placing the center post in the holder. From there, I check the lines as I gently begin to push upward, adjusting any lines that have gotten around one of the arms. Lastly, I lock it in place and don't mess with it until fall, when it comes down again. Hope this helped.

Make sure that the legs are out the whole way. If they aren't, it will not raise or lower. Also sometimes you have to lift up a little bit on the vertical bar in order to depress the lift/lower button. Hope this helps.

It took some effort to have them aligned. My advice is: 1) do not tighten any screws in the middle of the alignment. 2) remove the mattress if necessary so that you will have a much lighter frame to deal with.

I'm not sure I can help, but yes I noticed a slight problem when putting the legs. The center leg is retractable, make sure that you push to its maximum, then R2-D2 would stand properly :-) Also the side leg can rotate, from vertical to a back position.

I just received mine and noticed there is very slight rocking and the 4th leg is not touching the floor like the other 3 but not big enough gap to put a book under, thought maybe its a safety design feature but not sure. I may get a better idea once I start using it.

Try turning it upside down. I thought both ends looked the same and had the same problem. Finally out of frustration I turned it upside down and it fit great.

I agree with Mr. Reinhardt, the wood MUST be all the way into the bracket. Also, check that each leg is cut to the same size for BOTH brackets and that BOTH cross pieces are not warped. Good luck!

I had difficulty with this too. Flip the chair over and push the two legs together with some force, it will begin to close easily.
