Using this console table is a breeze. You can place it in your living room, foyer, or outside for entertaining. Just make sure to assemble it according to the instructions. When it comes to care, if it's outside, bring it inside or cover it well when you're not using it. Don't let the wooden part sit in water. Every now and then, use a small brush or a vacuum to dust it. If something spills on it, quickly wipe it with a slightly damp sponge so it doesn't stain. And never use bleach solutions on it. That way, your console table will stay in great shape for a long time.
