Using these nesting tables is a breeze. You can stack them together when you need to save space, like when having a big gathering in your living room. Or, use them separately around the room as side tables for drinks or books. When setting them up, just follow the easy - to - understand instructions that come with the set. For maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the tabletops regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they might damage the cherry finish or the birchwood veneer. If there are any spills, clean them up right away to prevent stains. Also, be careful not to place heavy objects on the edges of the tables to keep their structure intact. With proper care, these tables will serve you well for a long time.
