Using this Christopher Knight Home® iron twin bed frame is a breeze. First, since assembly is required, follow the included instructions carefully with the provided tools to put the bed frame together. Once assembled, place your mattress directly on the low - profile platform as there's no need for a box spring. For a good night's sleep, you can rely on the multiple iron slats and center bar to support your mattress. When it comes to maintenance, it's easy. Just wipe the bed frame with a dry cloth whenever it gets dirty to keep its flat black finish looking new. Remember to handle the bed frame gently during assembly and use to avoid any damage to the iron frame and its geometric motifs.
