Using this side table is a breeze. You can place it next to your favorite chair, either indoors or outdoors. It's great for holding snacks, drinks, or a small book while you relax. Since it doesn't require assembly, you can start using it right away. When it comes to maintenance, simply wipe it down with a damp cloth to keep it clean. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they might damage the powder - coated finish. In case of bad weather outdoors, it's a good idea to move the table to a sheltered area to prevent long - term exposure to rain or extreme sunlight, which could potentially affect its durability.
