Using your Christopher Knight Home® Outdoor Dining Bench is easy. Just place it next to your outdoor dining table and enjoy the extra seating for your family and guests. When you're done using it, there's no need to worry about complicated storage. It's lightweight, so you can easily move it around. For maintenance, simply wipe the smooth aluminum surface with a damp cloth and mild soap from time to time. This will keep it looking good and help it last longer. When it comes to weather, the bench is designed to withstand outdoor elements, but if you live in an area with extreme weather conditions like heavy snow or hail, it's a good idea to cover it or store it indoors during those times. Also, avoid dragging the bench on rough surfaces to prevent scratches on the aluminum.
