Using this Allegra King bed is a breeze. Just place it in your bedroom where you want it. Make sure the surface is flat to keep the bed stable. When making the bed, be gentle with the frame to avoid any scratches. For maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the bed regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they can damage the pewter finish. If there are any stains, use a mild soap and water solution and then dry it thoroughly. Keep heavy objects away from the edges of the bed to prevent any bending or damage to the frame.
