Using these chairs is a piece of cake. Just unfold them and place them on your deck, porch, or patio. You can adjust the cushions for your comfort and use the rear elastic straps to keep them in place. When it comes to maintenance, the zippered removable covers on the cushions make it easy to clean them. Wipe the frames with a damp cloth to keep them looking good. Make sure to store the chairs in a dry place during harsh weather. Don't overload the chairs; they can support up to 350 lbs. of static weight. That's it! Enjoy your relaxing time in these awesome chairs.
