Using these chairs is easy. Just assemble them as per the instructions, and they're ready for your outdoor dining area. When hosting a party, place them around your outdoor table. For a small gathering, you can arrange them more casually. As for maintenance, use a mild soap and water solution to clean the wicker. Wipe the metal legs gently to keep the light brown finish looking good. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight for long periods to prevent the wicker from fading. If it rains, it's best to cover them or bring them indoors. Also, check the assembly parts regularly to make sure they're all tight and secure.
