Setup and Assembly Instructions

Proper care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of your Shaneta Storage Bench.

• Cleaning the Upholstery:
  • For general cleaning, gently wipe the polyester fabric with a clean, damp cloth.
  • For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid rubbing, which can spread the stain.

  • Avoid Machine Wash/Dry Clean: The upholstery is not suitable for machine washing or dry cleaning.
• Frame and Legs: Wipe the wooden base and plastic frame components with a soft, dry cloth.
• Regular Inspection: Periodically check all screws and fasteners to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary.
