Using your Panama Dining Chair is super easy. Just place it in your desired outdoor spot like on a patio or by the pool. It doesn't need any assembly, so you can start using it right away. When it comes to maintenance, wipe it down with a damp cloth regularly to keep it clean. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the wicker or the carbon aluminum finish. If it gets dirty, a mild soap solution can work great. Also, during extreme weather conditions like heavy snow or strong storms, it's a good idea to store the chair indoors to extend its lifespan. The stainless - steel hardware is durable, but try to keep it dry to prevent any potential rusting. Enjoy your stylish and comfortable outdoor dining experience with this chair!
