Using this Sophia platform bed is a breeze. First, assemble it following the included instructions. It's important to make sure all parts are securely connected. Once assembled, place your mattress directly on the bed as it doesn't need a box spring. You can lean back on the soft foam headboard to read or watch TV. When it comes to cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the faux leather. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they can damage the material. For the metal legs, a simple dusting will keep them looking good. If you need to move the bed, be careful not to scratch the floor or damage the legs. And remember, the mattress is sold separately, so choose one that suits your comfort needs.
