Using this Milan Accent Table is easy. Just place it in the spot you want to enhance, like next to a sofa or in a corner of your living room. It's great for putting down your coffee cup, a small lamp, or some decorative items. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the surface regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they can damage the lacquer finish. Since the table contains wood dust which is a Prop 65 - listed chemical, it's a good idea to keep it in a well - ventilated area. Also, don't place extremely heavy items on it as the weight capacity is 150 lbs. This will help keep your table looking great for a long time.
