Using this Modulum Queen - sized upholstered panel bed is easy. First, assemble it according to the instructions provided as assembly is required. Once assembled, you can place your favorite mattress on it and start enjoying a comfortable sleep. When it comes to maintenance, regularly dust the bed with a soft, dry cloth. If there are any smudges, use a slightly dampened soft cloth to clean them, and then quickly dry the area with a dry cloth. Make sure to clean in the direction of the grain if it applies. Also, never let liquids sit on the bed's surface. Keep in mind that the headboard can't be used on its own. And be aware of the PROP 65 warning due to the presence of wood dust.
