Using your Sophia Contemporary California King Platform Bed is easy. First, find a suitable spot in your bedroom and assemble the bed following the included instructions. Once assembled, place your mattress directly on the platform - no need for a box spring. You can lean back on the soft foam headboard to read, watch TV, or just relax. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the faux leather surface regularly to keep it clean. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they can damage the leather. If there are any spills, clean them up immediately. For the metal legs, check them periodically to make sure they're tight and stable. When moving the bed, be careful not to scratch the floor or the bed itself.
