Using your Christopher Knight Home® Decatur Farmhouse Lift-Top Coffee Table is easy. You can lift the top to access the hidden storage and put away things like magazines, remote controls, or small toys. Lower the top when you're done to keep your living room looking neat. For dining or working, just lift the top to create a stable surface. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the table regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the finish. If there are spills, clean them up right away. During assembly, follow the instructions carefully. Make sure all the parts are tightened properly. And remember, this table has multiple color options, so choose the one that fits your living room decor best.
