Using your new Modern MDF Coffee Table is easy. First, find a good spot in your living room where it'll look great and be handy. The table comes with all the tools and instructions you need to put it together. It usually takes just 10 - 15 minutes to assemble. When using it, you can place your coffee mugs, books, or decorative items on it. Just be careful not to put very hot things directly on the surface; use a coaster to protect it. As for maintenance, a simple wipe with a soft, damp cloth is enough to keep it clean. If there are any stains, you can use a mild cleaner. Remember, the color you see on the website might be a bit different from the actual table because of your screen settings, but that doesn't affect its beauty and quality.
