Using these Christopher Knight Home® Carter dining chairs is a piece of cake. Just sit back and enjoy your meals or chats with friends and family. When it comes to assembly, follow the included instructions carefully, and you'll have them set up in no time. As for maintenance, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe off any spills or dirt on the leather surface. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the leather. Also, try to keep the chairs away from direct sunlight for long periods to prevent the leather from fading. If you move the chairs, lift them instead of dragging to protect the espresso - stained legs from scratches. With proper care, these chairs will serve you well for years.
