Using the Oliveira Outdoor Storage Box is easy. Just lift the gas - lift top and place your outdoor accessories inside. It's great for storing things like pool toys or gardening tools. Remember, this box is not for sitting on. When it comes to maintenance, keep it in good shape by storing it indoors or covering it when it's not in use. Avoid leaving it in standing water. To clean, dust it regularly with a small brush or a vacuum. If there's a spill, clean it up quickly with a slightly damp sponge. And never use bleach solutions on it. Also, the cushion has a removable zipper, so you can easily take it out for a more thorough clean if needed.
