Using the Ferm Living Plant Box Pot is a breeze. First, pick your favorite color from the available options - black, light grey, or cashmere. Then, place a large plant inside the pot. You can put the pot inside the Ferm Living Plant Box (note that the Plant Box isn't included). After that, use the extra space in the Plant Box to store books or other small items. When it comes to maintenance, simply wipe the powder-coated metal surface with a soft, dry cloth regularly to keep it looking good. If there are any stains, you can use a mild soap and water solution. Just make sure to dry it thoroughly afterward. As for the return policy, you have 30 days to return the item if you're not satisfied.
