Using this outdoor chat set is a breeze. Since no assembly is required, you can take it out of the box and start using it right away. Place the side table in the middle and position the two chairs around it. When you're done using it, fold the chairs by pulling up the seat and then folding the leg frame flush against the chair. For storage, keep it in a dry place, like a shed or garage, to protect it from extreme weather. To clean the set, use a mild soap and water solution. Wipe it down gently with a soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the acacia wood and the water - resistant straps. Also, don't leave the set in standing water for long periods, as this can reduce its lifespan.
