Using your Wallace & Bay Fangio Brown Storage Ottoman is a piece of cake. First, when you get it, unpack it and attach the legs. You can place it in your living room, bedroom, or any place that needs a bit of style and extra seating or storage. For seating, just sit on it like you would on any other ottoman. For storage, simply lift the top and put in things like blankets, pillows, or magazines. As for maintenance, it's easy. You can wipe it down with a damp cloth regularly to keep it clean. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the material. If there are any spills, clean them up right away. And that's all you need to know to enjoy your ottoman for a long time.
