Using your Louetta platform bed is a breeze. First, make sure you assemble it following the included instructions. Once assembled, place your mattress on the wood slats. The slats are designed to support your mattress well, so you don't need a box spring. When you're sitting up in bed, lean back against the angled headboard with the cool geometric design for extra comfort. For maintenance, just wipe it clean regularly to keep it looking its best. Remember, since assembly is required, take your time and follow the steps carefully. Also, make sure the mattress you choose fits within the recommended size and thickness for the best experience.
