Using your Marina Teak Wood Outdoor Dining Chair is a breeze. Just assemble it as per the instructions provided. Once assembled, place it on your patio where you want to enjoy your meals or relax. The chair is designed for outdoor use, so it can handle different weather conditions. However, during extreme weather like heavy storms or blizzards, it's a good idea to cover the chair or store it indoors to prolong its lifespan. For the cushion, you can simply remove the machine - washable cover and clean it in the washing machine to keep it looking fresh. As for the teak wood, you can wipe it down with a damp cloth from time to time to remove dirt. If you want to maintain its rich color, you can apply a teak oil every once in a while. Remember, regular maintenance will ensure your chair stays in great condition for years to come.
