Using these chairs is easy. Just place them in your desired spot in your home, like a living room or a reading area. You can enjoy sitting on them right away after assembly. When it comes to assembly, follow the included instructions carefully and use the provided tools. Make sure all parts are properly connected. For maintenance, the water - resistant cushions are great because you can simply wipe them clean with a damp cloth. The steel frame is sturdy, but you can occasionally check the joints to ensure they remain tight. If the chairs get dirty, you can clean the rattan with a mild soap and water solution. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the materials. Also, try not to place the chairs in direct sunlight for long periods to prevent color fading of the rattan and cushions.
