Using these barstools is a breeze. Just place them in your outdoor bar or dining area after assembly. You can enjoy sitting on them while having a drink or a meal outdoors. When it comes to assembly, follow the instructions carefully as some parts may need to be put together. For safety, don't exceed the 300 - lb weight capacity. To keep these barstools looking great, clean them regularly with a mild soap and water solution. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they can damage the wicker and aluminum. If you live in an area with harsh weather, consider covering the barstools or storing them indoors during extreme conditions to extend their lifespan.
