Using this coffee table is easy. For serving, simply lift the tabletop. You can put snacks, drinks, or use it as a workspace. To store items, open the two spacious compartments and place your things inside. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft, damp cloth to clean the melamine veneer tabletop. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the finish. For the metal hairpin legs, wipe them down to keep them looking good. Be careful when lifting the tabletop to prevent any injuries. And make sure not to overload the storage compartments to maintain the table's stability.
