Using your Grappa Natural Wood and Rattan Bed is a breeze. First, assemble the bed according to the included instructions. Since it comes with slats, you don't need a box spring. Just place your mattress on top and you're good to go. When it comes to maintenance, keep the bed away from direct sunlight to prevent the rattan from drying out and the wood finish from fading. You can use a soft, dry cloth to dust the bed regularly. If there are any spills, clean them up right away with a mild soap and water solution. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they can damage the materials. And because it's handmade, handle it with care to keep it looking great for years.
