Using this Perth Modern Gray Oval End Table is a breeze. You can place it next to your sofa or chair and use the top to display decorative items like vases, photo frames, or keep your remote, magazines handy. The shelf below is great for storing books, blankets, or other small items. When it comes to assembly, you'll need to follow the included instructions. It requires some basic tools and a bit of time, but it's not too difficult. As for maintenance, simply wipe the tabletop and shelf with a soft, damp cloth regularly to keep it clean. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they may damage the Birch veneer and the gray finish. Also, be aware that the actual color of the table might look a bit different from the photo on your screen because of monitor settings.
