Using this club chair is easy. Just place it in your living space where you want to relax. When sitting, make sure to distribute your weight evenly on the seat to get the most comfortable experience. As for cleaning, you can use a soft cloth and a mild fabric cleaner to wipe the 100% polyester upholstery. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the fabric. For the birch wood legs, a simple dusting with a dry cloth will keep them looking good. Since it requires assembly, carefully follow the included instructions. If you have any small children or pets, be aware that the nailhead trim could be a potential hazard, so keep an eye on them around the chair. And to maintain its shape, try not to constantly sit in the same spot on the seat.
