Using this Christopher Knight Home® Santa Cruz outdoor furniture set is a breeze. Since it requires no assembly, just unpack it and place it in your desired outdoor location. You can put the corner chair in a corner of your patio or deck, and position the coffee table in front of it. For daily use, you can place drinks, snacks, or a book on the coffee table. When it comes to maintenance, the water - resistant cushions are easy to clean. Just use a mild soap and water solution to wipe away any dirt or stains. The PE wicker and powder - coated iron frame are durable, but it's a good idea to cover the set during harsh weather conditions to extend its lifespan. Also, avoid dragging the furniture on rough surfaces to prevent scratches. If you notice any loose parts over time, you can check the connections to ensure everything stays secure.
