Using your Sadie Bed is easy. First, make sure you assemble it as per the instructions included in the package. Once assembled, you can adjust the slat system to your preferred height for maximum comfort. When making the bed, you can use any standard queen - sized bedding. As for maintenance, regularly dust the woven Abaca material with a soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they may damage the material. Also, be careful not to place sharp objects on the bed to prevent tearing the woven parts. If there are any spills, clean them up immediately with a mild detergent and a damp cloth.
