Using your Aventura King - size Upholstered Panel Bed is simple. First, make sure you assemble it according to the instructions as assembly is required. You can't use the headboard alone, so always order it with the footboard and side rails. Once it's set up, you're ready to enjoy a comfortable sleep. When it comes to maintenance, it's easy. Regularly remove dust with a soft, dry cloth. If there are smudges, use a slightly dampened soft cloth and dry it immediately to keep the bed looking its best. When cleaning, try to follow the grain direction of the wood. Also, never let liquids stand on the surface as it can damage the finish. And be aware that the bed has a PROP 65 warning due to wood dust, so take necessary precautions during assembly and cleaning.
