Using this coffee table is a piece of cake. You can place it in your living room and use it to serve drinks to your guests or display decorative items. To assemble it, just follow the included instructions, and you'll have it up and running in 30 minutes or less. When it comes to maintenance, use a water - based cleaner to wipe it down regularly. This will keep the white marble finish looking shiny and new. Also, make sure to use the floor glides to protect your hard floors from scratches. Avoid placing hot items directly on the tabletop to prevent damage to the marble finish. If you spill something, clean it up right away to avoid stains. With proper care, this coffee table will serve you well for a long time.
