To use this arch bed, simply place it in your bedroom. It's a great addition for a stylish and comfortable sleep space. When moving the bed, be careful as it weighs 189 lbs. Avoid placing heavy objects on the bed frame to prevent damage. For maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to clean the black cotton upholstery regularly. If there are any stains, spot - clean gently with a mild detergent. Since it has a Prop 65 warning about wood dust, make sure to keep the area around the bed clean to reduce exposure.
