Using your Modrest Schiff coffee and end table set is easy. You can place your drinks, books, or decorative items on the smooth white marbled ceramic top. Just be careful not to place extremely hot items directly on the ceramic surface as it may cause damage. When it comes to cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the ceramic top. For the grey wood base, you can use a mild wood cleaner. If you need to move the tables, make sure to lift them carefully instead of dragging to avoid scratching the floor or damaging the base. Assembly is required, so follow the instructions carefully and use the provided tools. With proper care, your table set will last for a long time and continue to enhance your living space.
