Using your Summer Hill Woven Accent Bed is easy. First, assemble the bed following the included instructions. Since it comes in 3 cartons, make sure you have all the parts before starting. Once assembled, place your box spring and mattress on top. For a better look, you can add some decorative pillows and a cozy comforter. When it comes to maintenance, use a soft, dry cloth to dust the bed regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they can damage the cotton - like finish and the antique bronze hardware. If there are any spills, clean them up immediately with a mild soap and water solution. Also, be careful when moving the bed as it weighs 150 pounds. Try to move it with the help of others to prevent any damage to the bed or injury to yourself.
