Using this side table is a breeze. You can place it indoors next to your sofa for a handy spot to put your drinks, books, or decorative items. Outside, it's perfect for your patio to hold a cup of coffee while you enjoy the fresh air. When it comes to cleaning, just use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the surface. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they might damage the faux wood finish. For long - term use, keep it away from extreme weather conditions if possible. Although it's weather - resistant, too much exposure to heavy rain or snow over a long time could affect its appearance. And if you notice any minor scratches, you can gently buff them out with a soft cloth.
