Using this end table is a breeze! Just place it beside your sofa or armchair. You can put your favorite decorative items, books, or a glass of drink on it. Since it doesn't require assembly, you can start using it right after taking it out of the box. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the surface regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the Capiz shell top or the gold finish on the base. Also, be careful not to place very hot items directly on the table to prevent any potential damage. If there are any spills, clean them up promptly to keep the table looking its best. Keep in mind that the product features might vary depending on your selections, so you'll get exactly what you've chosen.
