Using your LumiSource Tray Nesting Ottoman Set is a breeze. For extra seating, just place the ottomans where you need them. To use them for storage, lift the removable lid and put your items inside. When it's time to serve, flip the top of the ottoman to reveal the natural wood tray. Remember, these ottomans are for indoor use only and have a weight limit of 250 lbs. So, don't place overly heavy items on them. Since they require no assembly, you can start using them right away. To keep them looking great, regularly dust the fabric upholstery and the wood tray. If there are any stains on the fabric, spot clean it gently with a mild detergent. With proper care, your ottoman set will last for a long time.
