Using this bench is a breeze. Just place it around your dining table, and you're ready to enjoy your meals comfortably. When it comes to cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the fabric regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the fabric or the wood. For the wood parts, you can use a wood polish every few months to keep it looking shiny. Be careful not to place heavy or sharp objects on the bench, as this could cause scratches or dents. If you move the bench, lift it gently instead of dragging it to prevent damage to the legs.
