Using your Britney Upholstered Queen Platform Bed is easy. First, assemble the bed according to the instructions provided. Once assembled, place your mattress directly on the slats - no box spring needed. You can then add your favorite bedding and pillows to make it your own. When it comes to maintenance, vacuum the upholstery regularly to keep it clean. For spills, gently blot the area with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they may damage the fabric. If you need to move the bed, be careful with the legs to prevent any scratches or dents. With proper care, your Britney bed will provide you with years of comfort and style.
