Using your new bed is easy. First, assemble it following the included instructions as full assembly is needed. Place it in your master bedroom where it will look great. You don't need a box spring, and the 14 slats provide full support for up to 500 pounds. For maintenance, simply wipe the high - gloss zebra grey and white finish with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the wood. Since it's not for commercial use, keep it in a home environment. And remember, you selected the specific features of this bed, so enjoy the unique style it brings to your bedroom.
