Using this coffee table is a piece of cake. You can place it in your living room, and use it to serve coffee, snacks, or display your favorite decorative items. When assembling, follow the instructions carefully and you'll have it up and running in 30 minutes or less. For maintenance, simply use a water - based cleaner to wipe it down regularly. The floor glides are there to protect your floors, so make sure not to remove them. Keep it away from sharp objects to avoid scratching the walnut - finished top. Also, don't expose it to excessive moisture or direct sunlight for long periods, as this could damage the finish and the frame.
