Using this coffee table is a breeze. Place it in your living room or outdoors as you like. Remember, it can hold up to a weight of 15. When it comes to maintenance, if you're using it outdoors, store it inside or cover it well when not in use. Make sure to keep any wooden parts away from standing water to prevent damage. To keep it clean, use a small brush or a vacuum to dust it regularly. If there are spills, clean them up immediately with a slightly damp sponge. Just don't use bleach solutions as they can harm the table. This table is made in Vietnam and has a great geometric design that can enhance any space.
