Using this ottoman is easy. Just place it in your living room, bedroom, or any other space where you need extra seating or a footrest. You can sit on it comfortably thanks to the high - resilience foam cushions. As for maintenance, you can use a soft, damp cloth to clean the polyester fabric regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the fabric. Make sure to place the ottoman on a flat surface to prevent it from tipping over. Also, check the tubular plastic legs periodically to ensure they are still in good condition and providing proper support.
