Using this bench is super easy. You can place it in your living room, bedroom, or entryway. It's great for sitting on when you have guests or just for relaxing. If you want, you can also use it to display some decorative items on top. When it comes to assembly, just follow the simple instructions that come with it, and you'll have it set up in no time. For maintenance, it's recommended to vacuum the cotton fabric regularly to keep it clean. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight for long periods as it might fade the colors.
