Using the Christopher Knight Home® Berkshire Hanging Chair is a great way to enjoy your outdoor space. First, since it doesn't come with a hanging stand or mounting hardware, you'll need to hire a professional for installation. This ensures it's set up safely. Once installed, you can sit back and relax in the cozy basket - shaped seat. Remember to hang the chair no more than 20 inches above the ground, keep it 4 to 5 feet from walls, and 30 inches from any obstacles. It's not a toy, so don't let children under 12 use it, and avoid rough swinging to prevent tipping. For maintenance, the chair's polyethylene rattan construction is durable, but you can wipe it down occasionally to keep it clean. The water - resistant cushions are easy to take care of. Just use a damp cloth to clean the non - porous covering. Try to keep them out of heavy rain to prolong their lifespan.
