Using this chair is a breeze. Just sit back and relax on the plush cushion for a comfortable experience. When it comes to placement, you can put it in your living room, bedroom, or study. It'll fit right in. As for maintenance, since the fabric is 100% polyester with a cleaning code of Upholstery (S), you can use a dry - cleaning solvent to clean any stains. Try to avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the fabric. Also, to keep the frame in good shape, don't put too much weight on it. If you move the chair, do it carefully to prevent scratches on the exposed feet with the faux - wood finish. With proper care, this chair will serve you well for a long time.
