Using your Modrest Torino Modern Platform Bed is easy. First, find a suitable spot in your bedroom. Since no box spring is needed, you can directly place your mattress on the bed base. When you're ready to relax at night, you can use the built - in nightstands to keep your essentials like a book or a glass of water. The LED lights on the platform and headboard can be turned on to create a cozy and modern ambiance. As for assembly, make sure to follow the instructions carefully. It's a bit of work, but once it's done, you'll have a beautiful bed. For maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to clean the brown oak and grey gloss surfaces. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the finish. If there are any spills on the nightstands or the bed, wipe them up immediately to prevent stains. That's all you need to know to enjoy your new bed for years to come.
