Using your Christopher Knight Home® Emile Outdoor Adjustable Chaise Lounge is super easy. First, you'll need to assemble it as it comes in parts. Just follow the included instructions, and you'll have it set up in no time. Once it's assembled, you can place it wherever you like outdoors, such as your patio or by the pool. To adjust the recline, find the mechanism on the side and move it to your desired position. When you're done using it, if it's going to rain or there's bad weather, it's a good idea to cover it or bring it indoors to protect it from the elements. For maintenance, you can clean the mesh seat with a mild soap and water solution. Wipe down the acacia wood frame regularly to keep it looking great. And that's it! Enjoy your luxurious outdoor relaxation with this chaise lounge.
