Using this side table is a breeze. You can place it next to your sofa or bed. Put a potted plant on it to add a touch of nature to your room, or use it to hold your snacks and drinks while you relax. When it comes to cleaning, just use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the surface. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they may damage the textured surface. Also, try not to place heavy objects on it all at once to prevent any potential damage to the aluminum frame. For long - term use, keep it away from direct sunlight and excessive moisture to maintain its metallic finish and prevent rusting.
