Product Attribute

• Brand: Must be consistent with the actual brand and packaging display.
• Material:
  • Such as PP (Polypropylene) plastic, stainless steel, glass, ceramic, solid wood, bamboo, wrought iron, alloy, fabric, and other materials.
  • If it is a mixed material, it can be described by the main material + auxiliary material, for example, PP + stainless steel.

  • Length × Width × Height (or Diameter × Height), Capacity (L), Thickness, Compatible Dimensions, and other relevant measurements
  • Measurement units should be standardized and use local units of measurement.
• Color/Style:
  • Color:
    • White, black, grey, blue, and other colors
    • Avoid using vague terms such as "popular color" as attributes.

• Quantity/Set Information:
  • 1-piece pack, 2-piece pack, 4-piece pack, or 10-piece pack
  • Sets need to clearly specify the quantity and subcategories included.

Product Images

• The main body of the product should be centered, and the main body should occupy the majority of the image area (approximately ≥80%).
• For transparent/glass products, pay attention to reflection control to avoid unclear outlines.
• For storage items, small furniture pieces, and similar products, consider placing comparison objects (such as common items) to show the actual volume. However, try to do so in other images, as the main image should focus on the product.

• Multi-angle display diagram:
  • Front/Side/Back/Top/Bottom, and other angles
  • Detachable parts, lids, drawers, and open/closed states
• Detail close-up:
  • Material texture (such as surface texture, brushed metal, or wood grain)
  • Key structures such as seams, solder joints (connections made by melting solder), screws/hinges, springs, and other key structures
  • Functional parts: buttons, pedals, rollers, hooks, switches, and other functional parts
• Dimension/Structure:
  • Mark the length, width, height, or capacity with lines/words.
  • For foldable/telescopic products, display the size comparison before and after unfolding/folding.
• Usage scenario:
  • Display in real-life scenarios: such as storage racks placed in the bathroom, cutting boards/tableware used in kitchen operations, and decorative paintings displayed in the living room.
  • If auxiliary items appear in the scene image, they should be labeled as "not this product". You must also specify in the details that "other products in the image are for shooting purposes only and are not for sale".
• Installation/Usage instructions.
  • If self-installation is required: Simple step-by-step images can be provided.
  • Wall hooks can demonstrate the correct installation methods, for example, drilling holes/adhesive mounting.

Product Detail Page

Product basic information (required)

• Brand, specification, applicable scenarios, and other basic details

Material and Process Description (Required)

• Describe materials accurately:
  • For stainless steel, specify the type and avoid exaggeration.
  • For wood products, distinguish between "solid wood, veneered panels (thin layers of wood glued to a core), and medium density fiberboard (an engineered wood product)".
• Briefly describe the process characteristics, such as "smooth solder joints, firm welding", "surface powder spraying for rust prevention treatment", "high-temperature firing of ceramics", and similar process descriptions
• Avoid writing ordinary alloys as high-end materials such as "pure copper/pure silver/pure gold".

Dimensions and Load-Bearing/Capacity Specification (Required)

• Dimensions should be accurate and include units. If measured manually, the "tolerance range" must be specified.
• Capacity/Load-bearing:
  • Storage bins, trash cans, and similar containers can indicate volume capacity (L).
  • Storage racks, hooks, folding racks, and similar items can indicate the load-bearing capacity, for example, "Maximum load capacity of 1 hook is approximately 3kg".
• If the usage scenario is sensitive to dimensions, such as fitting into cabinet space or shelf height, it is recommended to provide an illustration for explanation.

Functional Features and Usage Scenarios (Required)

• Functional features:
  • Anti-slip
  • Waterproof
  • Moisture-proof
  • Easy to clean
  • Foldable for storage
  • Space-saving
  • Multi-functional use
• Usage scenarios:
  • kitchen condiment storage
  • Toiletries storage
  • Living room ornament decoration
  • Patio potted plant arrangement
• Experience descriptions:
  • "Helping organize countertops to improve storage efficiency".
  • "Effectively utilizing wall space".

• Avoid claiming non-existent effects such as "purification, disinfection, and sterilization".
• Avoid writing ordinary decorative lamps as medical/pest control devices such as "mosquito repellent lamps" or "treatment lamps".
• Avoid writing absolute claims such as "all odors disappear instantly" and "100% mold prevention." Note: Listings with such claims may be removed.

Installation/Usage Instructions and Precautions (Required)

• Installation Instructions
  • Wall-mounted/Punched Hole Type: Specify the suitable wall types (for example, concrete walls, not suitable for hollow bricks/gypsum boards, which are a common type of wallboard).
  • Nail-free glue/strong adhesive tape: Specify the requirements for the bonding surface (such as smooth tiles or glass), the bonding steps, and the standing time.
• Usage method
  • For items such as mops and cleaning tools: how to assemble, how to wring out water, and how to replace the mop head.
  • For foldable storage items: the operation method of unfolding/folding.
• Precautions
  • Avoid placing near high temperatures/open flames.
  • Load-bearing limit reminder: Do not stand or sit on it, and do not carry items heavier than the marked weight.
  • Avoid using strong acids/alkalis, steel wool scrubbing, or similar abrasive methods during cleaning.

Cleaning, Maintenance, and Safety Reminder (recommended to fill in)

• Maintenance recommendations for extending lifespan:
  • "Glassware is recommended to be hand-washed to avoid drastic temperature differences".
  • "Wooden products should avoid long-term immersion in water".
• Safety Reminder:
  • Fragile items (glass, ceramics) should be marked for careful handling and kept out of reach of children.
  • Storage boxes and pedals should be kept away from children to prevent them from using them as toys for climbing or jumping.
  • If the product has sharp corners/edges, it should remind users to exercise caution or indicate that rounding treatment has been applied.
