Using this side table is a breeze. Just take it out of the box and place it wherever you want in your patio or garden. Since it doesn't need assembly, you can start using it right away. When using it, avoid placing extremely heavy objects on it to prevent damage to the frame. To maintain it, simply wipe it down with a damp cloth regularly. If it gets dirty, you can use a mild soap solution. Store it in a dry place during harsh weather conditions to extend its lifespan. And when choosing the color, pick one that best matches your overall outdoor look.
