This document provides assembly instructions and care guidelines for the Marciana Coffee Table, SKU 582731, sold by World Market.
Function Description:
The Marciana Coffee Table is a piece of furniture designed for residential use, intended to provide a surface for various items in a living space. Its primary function is to serve as a central table in a seating area, offering a convenient spot for drinks, books, decorative items, or other personal belongings. The table features a sturdy construction with a slatted tabletop and leg frames, suggesting a design that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. It is designed for indoor use, though the care instructions mention "Outdoor Wood Furniture Finish," which might imply a versatility for covered outdoor spaces or a general recommendation for wood furniture care that could extend to outdoor pieces. However, the explicit "NOT FOR COMMERCIAL USE" and "For residential use only" statements, along with the standard wood care advice, strongly indicate its primary intended environment is indoors.

- Leveling: The table is equipped with pre-installed levelers for stability and adjustment on uneven surfaces.
Usage Features:
- Assembly Requirement: The table is shipped unassembled and requires user assembly. The manual strongly recommends two adults for this process to ensure ease and safety.
- Stability: The design incorporates leg frames and a bottom stretcher to provide structural integrity. The use of Allen bolts and screws, tightened with an Allen key, ensures a secure connection of components.
- Adjustable Levelers: A key usage feature is the inclusion of pre-installed levelers. These allow for fine-tuning the table's stability on uneven floors, preventing wobbling. Users are advised to adjust these levelers after the table has been moved to its final desired location to avoid damage.
- Residential Use: The product is explicitly designated for residential use, not commercial, aligning with typical home furniture applications.
Maintenance Features:
The manual provides comprehensive care and maintenance guidelines to ensure the longevity and appearance of the Marciana Coffee Table:
- Protection from Heat: Users are advised not to place hot items directly on the furniture surface. This prevents heat damage, such as rings, discoloration, or warping, which are common issues with wooden furniture.
- Cleaning:
- Avoid harsh cleansers or polish. This suggests that abrasive or chemically strong cleaning agents could damage the wood finish.
- For general cleaning, use a clean, non-colored, lint-free cloth to dust and pick up spills. This gentle approach helps maintain the surface without scratching or leaving residue.
- For stains, a mild soap solution and a damp cloth are recommended. This indicates that the finish can withstand gentle cleaning for minor spills and marks.
- Environmental Protection:
- Do not place furniture near heating or cooling vents. Extreme temperature fluctuations or direct airflow from vents can cause wood to dry out, crack, or warp.
- Store furniture or use an appropriate furniture cover during cold or inclement weather. While primarily an indoor table, this advice suggests that if it were to be exposed to such conditions (e.g., during moving or in a less climate-controlled area), protection is necessary. This also reinforces the idea that while it's wood, it's not designed for constant outdoor exposure without specific protection.
- Surface Protection: Do not write on the furniture without a padded barrier to protect the surface. This prevents scratches, indentations, or ink marks from damaging the tabletop.
- Wood Characteristics: The manual acknowledges natural characteristics of wood:
- Color may fade if left in direct sunlight or inclement weather. This is a common property of wood and its finishes, advising users to be mindful of placement relative to windows or other light sources.
- Minor cracking may occur with age. This is presented as a naturally occurring feature of wood and does not affect product performance, indicating that such occurrences are normal and not defects.
- Recommended Product: World Market recommends using their "Outdoor Wood Furniture Finish" (sold separately) to help preserve and protect the wood and finish. This recommendation, despite the table being primarily for indoor use, suggests that the finish offers robust protection suitable for wood in various environments, potentially enhancing its durability even indoors. This also implies the table's wood might benefit from additional protective treatments over time.
