Using your Carey Bistro Table is a breeze. Just place it in your desired dining area, and you're ready to host intimate dinners or small gatherings. When seating guests, remember it comfortably fits 2 - 4 people. For maintenance, simply wipe it down with a soft, dry cloth regularly to keep the light white wash finish looking its best. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they can damage the wood. If there are any spills, clean them up immediately to prevent staining. Also, try not to place extremely hot items directly on the table; use coasters or trivets. With these simple steps, your bistro table will stay in great shape for years to come.
