Using this daybed is super easy. Just assemble it following the included instructions. Once it's set up, you can place it on your patio or any outdoor area. You can use it for reading during the day or stargazing at night. When it comes to maintenance, wipe the wicker with a damp cloth regularly to keep it clean. For the cushion, if it gets dirty, spot - clean it with mild soap and water. Make sure to dry it thoroughly. Also, during heavy rain or harsh weather, it's a good idea to cover the daybed to protect it from damage. Keep it away from sharp objects to avoid scratching the wicker or tearing the cushion.
