To use these chairs, simply place them around your dining table or wherever you need seating. They are comfortable for long - term sitting during meals or gatherings. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the plastic wicker clean. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the material. If there are any spills, clean them up promptly. For the steel frame, check periodically for any signs of rust, and if you notice any, you can use a gentle metal cleaner. Store the chairs in a dry place when not in use to prevent moisture damage. Also, be careful not to place heavy objects on the chairs as it may cause deformation of the plastic wicker.
