Using your Senna upholstered bed is easy. Just place it in your bedroom where you want it and add your favorite mattress on top of the included slats. There's no need to worry about a box spring. When it comes to cleaning, use a soft - cloth and a mild detergent to wipe the Belfast heather grey fabric gently. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the fabric. For the solid rubberwood legs, you can use a wood cleaner to keep them looking great. Make sure to regularly check the slats and legs for any signs of wear or looseness. If you notice any issues, tighten the connections. This bed is for indoor use only, so don't place it outside.
