Using your Christopher Knight Home® Condessa Outdoor Hammock Weave Loveseat Bench is easy. First, you'll need to assemble it according to the included instructions. Once it's put together, place it in your desired outdoor spot like your patio or backyard. You and your guests can just sit back and enjoy the comfort of the hammock - weave seat. When it comes to maintenance, keep it clean by wiping it down with a damp cloth regularly. Avoid leaving it in direct sunlight for long periods as it may fade the black finish. If it rains, try to cover it or move it to a sheltered area to prevent the faux rattan from getting too wet. Also, check the iron frame occasionally for any signs of rust, and if you find some, you can use a rust - resistant spray to protect it. This way, your loveseat will stay in great shape for years to come.
