Using your new dark teal bed is easy. Once fully assembled, simply place your mattress on top and add your favorite bedding. The headboard is there to keep your pillows in place while you sleep. For cleaning, gently vacuum the linen upholstery regularly to keep it free from dust. If there are any stains, use a mild detergent and a soft cloth to spot - clean. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the linen. When moving the bed, make sure to lift it carefully from the base to prevent any damage to the structure. Since it requires full assembly, follow the instructions carefully and keep all the parts organized during the process. With proper care, your bed will provide you with a restful sleep for many years.
