To use this Linus bench, simply place it in your desired indoor space. It's great for entryways, living rooms, or as a footrest. When cleaning, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away dust. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they can damage the wood finish. If there are spills, clean them up promptly. Since the wood has natural variations, some minor indentations or cracks are normal and add to the bench's character. Keep the bench away from direct sunlight for long periods to prevent the wood from drying out and the color from fading.
