Usage Features:

Personal Relaxation: The primary use is for individual relaxation, offering a cozy and private space.
Indoor/Sheltered Outdoor Use: While the manual states it is "Not recommended for extended outdoor use," it can likely be used in sheltered outdoor areas, provided it is protected from harsh weather conditions.
Easy Entry/Exit: The design appears to allow for easy entry and exit, with an opening in the fabric pod.
Comfort: The inclusion of a pad (Part 8) indicates a focus on user comfort within the pod.
Suspended Design: The pod hangs from a metal stand, providing a gentle swaying motion that can enhance relaxation.
Safety Features: The assembly instructions emphasize ensuring all "pop locks" are securely locked to maintain structural integrity.
Limitations:
- Not intended for use as a swing, tent, spinner, gymnastics/playground equipment, climbing frame, or any combination. This clearly defines its purpose as a static relaxation pod rather than an active play item.
- Not recommended for extended outdoor use to prevent damage from UV rays, rain, and wind.

Maintenance Features:

Regular Inspection: The product must be fully inspected before and after each use to ensure proper safety and maintenance. This is crucial for identifying any wear or damage that could compromise safety.
Protection from Elements: Do not leave the product exposed outdoors for extended periods. External factors such as UV rays, rain, and wind can damage the product. Special emphasis is placed on not leaving it outside during windy days, suggesting potential instability or damage risk in high winds.
Proper Storage: Before storing, ensure the product is fully dry. Store it only in a cool, well-ventilated, and dry location when not in use. This prevents mold, mildew, and material degradation.
Replacement Parts: For customer service or replacement parts, users are directed to call a specific number, visit a website, or send an e-mail. This indicates that individual parts can be replaced if damaged or lost, extending the product's lifespan.
Warranty: The product comes with a 90-day warranty against defects in material and workmanship under normal use and service conditions. The warranty requires proof of purchase and covers repair or replacement of defective equipment or parts. It explicitly excludes damage from misuse, unauthorized repairs, environmental factors (fire, flood, lightning, wind, etc.), and improper usage (underage, overweight, or excessive number of users). This highlights the importance of adhering to usage guidelines to maintain warranty validity.
Cleaning: While not explicitly detailed, the need to ensure the product is "fully dry before storing" implies that it may be cleaned with water, and proper drying is essential to prevent damage.
