Using your Christopher Knight Home® Luciano Outdoor Bench is easy. First, assemble it according to the included instructions. Once assembled, place it in your desired outdoor spot like your patio or garden. You can sit on it while reading a book, having a chat with friends, or just enjoying the outdoors. When it comes to maintenance, clean the Acacia wood regularly with a mild soap and water solution. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the wood's finish. For the cream water - resistant fabric cushion, spot - clean it with a gentle detergent if it gets dirty. In case of heavy rain or extreme weather, it's a good idea to cover the bench or move the cushion indoors to keep them in good condition. Also, make sure to check the assembly parts periodically to ensure they are tight and secure.
