Using your Pollard Bench is a breeze. Just place it in your entryway to sit and put on your shoes, or in the bedroom for extra seating. To clean the bench, use a soft, dry cloth to dust the wooden frame regularly. For the white boucle upholstery, gently vacuum it to remove dirt and debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they can damage the wood finish and the fabric. When assembling the bench, follow the included instructions carefully. If you have any issues during assembly, contact customer service. Store the bench in a dry place to prevent the wood from warping or the fabric from mildewing. With proper care, your Pollard Bench will last for years to come.
