Using your Juliette Vintage - Style Rustic Oak Dining Bench is a breeze. Simply place it at your dining table to replace two side - chairs. It's great for adding extra seating during gatherings. When it comes to weight, each seat can handle up to 250 pounds, so be mindful not to overload it. For maintenance, wipe the bench regularly with a soft, dry cloth to keep the oak finish looking its best. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the distressed finish. If there are spills, clean them up immediately to prevent staining. And since it's made of solid rubberwood, protect it from extreme temperature and humidity changes to ensure its long - lasting quality.
