Using this coffee table is a breeze. You can place it in the center of your living room as a focal point. Put your magazines, remote controls, or snacks on the top surface. Open the storage trunk to keep things like blankets or board games neatly organized. As for maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the surface regularly. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they might damage the painted finish or the brass accents. If there are any spills, clean them up right away to prevent staining. When moving the table, lift it gently instead of dragging to protect the legs and the overall structure.
