Using this bistro set is a breeze. First, assemble the set following the included instructions. Once it's set up, place it on your patio or in your garden. You can use it to have a cup of coffee in the morning, read a book in the afternoon, or chat with a friend in the evening. When it comes to maintenance, the water - resistant cushions are easy to clean. Just wipe them with a damp cloth. If there's a heavy rain, it's a good idea to cover the set or move it indoors to protect it from excessive moisture. The iron frame may rust over time if exposed to too much water, so keep an eye on it. Periodically check the hand - crafted details to make sure nothing is loose or damaged. With proper care, this set will serve you well for a long time.
