Using your Tybee Outdoor Dining Bench is a breeze. Just place it in your desired outdoor spot like your patio or garden. You can use it for enjoying meals outdoors, relaxing while reading a book, or chatting with friends. Since it doesn't require assembly, you can start using it right away. When it comes to maintenance, a simple wipe - down with a mild soapy water solution every few weeks will keep it looking its best. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they might scratch the chalk finish. In case of heavy rain or extreme weather, it's a good idea to cover the bench to prevent long - term exposure and extend its lifespan. Keep it away from sharp objects to avoid dents or scratches on the aluminum surface.
