Using your Divani Casa Tyree bed is simple. Once you've assembled it following the instructions, just place your mattress on the included slats. You don't need a box spring. When it comes to maintenance, avoid using strong liquid cleaners on the 100% polyester fabric. A gentle cleaning solution should do the trick for regular upkeep. Be aware that the bed has a weight capacity of 1320 lbs, so don't overload it. And since some assembly is required, make sure to follow the steps carefully. Enjoy your peaceful sleep on this elegant and comfortable bed.
