This elegant tufted bench is super easy to use. You can place it at the end of your bed, in the hallway, or even in your living room. It's great for sitting on while you put on your shoes or as additional seating. For storage, simply use the shelf under the bench to keep items like blankets, magazines, or shoes. When it comes to maintenance, clean the cream natural linen upholstery with a mild fabric cleaner. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the fabric. For the limed grey oak frame, you can dust it regularly with a soft cloth. Keep the bench away from direct sunlight and excessive moisture to prevent any damage to the wood and fabric.
