Using this Marina outdoor teak dining set is easy. First, you'll need to assemble it as instructed in the manual. Once assembled, place it in your outdoor area where you want to enjoy meals with friends and family. The chairs are comfortable thanks to the weather - resistant cushions. You can clean the cushions by simply removing the machine - washable covers and popping them in the washing machine. For the teak wood, it's best to clean it with a mild soap and water solution occasionally. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they can damage the wood. If you live in an area with extreme weather conditions, it's a good idea to cover the set when not in use to extend its lifespan. Also, make sure to keep the set on a flat surface to prevent any wobbling.
