Using your Christopher Knight Home® coffee table is easy. Just place it in your living room and arrange your favorite decorative items on it. When assembling, follow the included instructions carefully and make sure all parts are properly tightened.For safety, keep heavy objects evenly distributed on the table to avoid tipping. Also, don't place extremely hot items directly on the faux - wood surface to prevent damage.To maintain the table, wipe it regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap and water solution. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they can scratch the finish. If the table is placed near a window, use curtains to protect it from direct sunlight, which can fade the colors over time.
