To use this table, simply place it in your kitchen and start using it for meals, gatherings, or as a workspace. When cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the surface. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they can damage the wood finish. If you spill something, clean it up right away to prevent stains. Periodically, apply a wood polish to keep the table looking its best and protect the wood from drying out. Also, be careful not to drag heavy objects across the table to avoid scratches.
