Using this ottoman is easy. You can use it as a seat when you're relaxing in your living room or as a footrest when you're watching TV. It's also great to use as a small table to place your drinks or books. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft brush or vacuum cleaner on a low - power setting to clean the faux fur regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they can damage the fur and the frame. If there's a small stain, spot - clean it gently with a mild detergent and water. Place the ottoman away from direct sunlight to prevent the color from fading. With proper care, this ottoman will serve you well for a long time.
