Using your Adriana Storage Bench is a breeze. First, assemble it according to the instructions provided. Once assembled, you can place it in any room you like - the entryway to store shoes and keys, the mudroom for outdoor gear, the playroom for toys, or the bedroom for clothes. Use the open storage area under the seat for larger items like books or shoes. You can also add baskets to the open area to keep things more organized. The three drawers are perfect for storing smaller items like socks, accessories, or toys. To maintain your bench, wipe it clean with a soft, dry cloth regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they may damage the walnut finish. If there are any spills, clean them up promptly. Keep in mind that since it's made of a combination of solid and composite wood, it should be kept in a dry environment to prevent warping or damage.
