Using your Christopher Knight Home® Silas Contemporary Fabric Full/Queen Headboard is a breeze. First, make sure you have all the parts and tools needed for assembly as it does require some assembly. Follow the instructions carefully to put the headboard together. Once assembled, adjust the legs to fit your metal bed frame properly. Place the headboard against the wall where your bed will be. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft cloth to dust the fabric regularly. If there are any stains, spot clean them gently with a mild detergent and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they can damage the fabric. Also, be careful not to bump or scratch the nailhead accents. If you notice any loose parts, tighten them right away to keep the headboard in good condition. Enjoy your beautiful and comfortable headboard for years to come!
