Using your new coffee table is a breeze. You can place your daily - read magazines, cups of coffee, or decorative vases on the top tier for easy access. The bottom tier is perfect for storing extra books or folded blankets. When cleaning, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the surface regularly to keep it looking new. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they may damage the wood finish. If there are spills, clean them up immediately to prevent staining. Also, try not to place extremely hot or cold items directly on the table; use coasters or trivets instead. With proper care, your coffee table will serve you well for many years.
