Using your Tommy Bahama Home Pacific Rim Dining Chair is a breeze. Just place it around your dining table and enjoy your meals in style. For daily use, make sure to sit on it gently to avoid unnecessary stress on the frame. When it comes to cleaning, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the mahogany and rattan parts regularly. For the upholstered seat, if there are small stains, spot - clean with a mild detergent and water, then pat dry. Avoid placing the chair in direct sunlight for long periods as it may cause the colors to fade. Also, keep it away from damp areas to prevent the rattan from warping. If you need to move the chair, lift it carefully instead of dragging it to protect the leather - bound base. With proper care, your chair will stay in great condition for years to come.
