Using your Flynn Retro bed is easy. First, make sure you have a box spring as it's required for this bed. Then, place your low - profile mattress on the wooden slat base. You can choose either the Acorn (Brown) or White finish based on your room's color scheme. When it comes to assembly, set aside some time as it's a necessary step. Just follow the instructions carefully, and you'll have your bed ready in no time. To keep your bed in great shape, avoid placing it in direct sunlight for long periods as it might fade the finish. Clean the bed regularly with a soft, dry cloth. If there are any spills, wipe them up immediately to prevent stains. And remember, since it's made of Mahogany Solids and Okoume Veneer, handle it gently to avoid scratches or dents.
