Using this stool is a breeze. You can place it in your dining room for a quick meal or in front of your makeup table for your beauty routine. Just sit on it like you would any regular stool, and enjoy the comfort it offers. When it comes to maintenance, keep it away from direct sunlight to prevent the wood from fading. Wipe it clean with a soft, dry cloth regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they can damage the natural finish of the beech wood. If there are any spills, clean them up immediately to prevent staining. Also, don't exceed the 300 LB weight capacity to ensure the stool remains sturdy and safe to use.
