Using this barstool is super easy. Just place it at your home bar and sit back and relax. When it comes to maintenance, wipe the non - porous surfaces with a damp cloth and a bit of mild soap to clean up any spills right away. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the wood or the iron finish. Also, try to keep it away from extreme weather conditions even though the iron base is weather - resistant, long - term exposure to bad weather could still cause problems. If you notice any loose parts, like the legs or footrails, tighten them up with a simple tool. That's all you need to do to keep your barstool in great shape for years to come.
