Using this coffee table set is a breeze. Just place it in your outdoor area and assemble it following the included instructions. Once it's set up, you can put your drinks, snacks, and other essentials on the coffee table and side tables. For the cushions, enjoy their comfort, but be careful not to let them get fully wet as they're water - resistant, not waterproof. If there's a spill on the cushions, quickly wipe it with a dry cloth. To maintain the acacia wood frame, clean it with a mild soap and water solution occasionally. This will keep it looking good and protect it from outdoor elements. For the rattan, gently dust it regularly to keep its woven finish looking great. With proper care, this coffee table set will serve you well for a long time.
