Using this Walker Edison outdoor dining table is a breeze. First, follow the step - by - step instructions to assemble it. Once it's set up in your patio or backyard, just place chairs around it and you're ready for an outdoor meal. When you have more guests, simply unfold the hidden butterfly leaf in the center to expand the table. To keep your table looking great, apply teak oil regularly. This will help preserve its beautiful brown color and the natural grain of the acacia wood. Also, be careful not to expose the table to extreme temperatures as this could damage the wood. With proper care, this table will serve you well for many outdoor gatherings.
