Using your new counter height bench is easy. Simply place it in your desired living space, such as near a kitchen island or in a dining area. Once fully assembled, it can comfortably seat two people. When using, make sure not to place heavy or sharp objects on the leatherette seat to avoid scratches or tears. For maintenance, wipe the leatherette seat regularly with a soft, damp cloth to keep it clean. As for the wooden parts, use a wood cleaner occasionally to maintain its shine. Remember, this product has a Prop65 warning due to the presence of formaldehyde, so ensure proper ventilation in the area where it's placed. Also, since it requires full assembly, follow the instructions carefully during the setup process.
