Using your Bristol Chaise is easy. Just adjust the back to one of the 5 positions that suit you best and relax. Whether you're reading a book or taking a nap, this chaise will provide great comfort. When it comes to maintenance, you can simply wipe the aluminum frame with a damp cloth to keep it clean. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they may scratch the powder - coated finish. For the cushions, if they get dirty, follow the cleaning instructions provided with the Sunbrella fabric. Also, make sure to store the chaise in a dry place during harsh weather conditions to extend its lifespan. And remember, the weight capacity is 650 units, so don't overload it.
