Using your Luminar Twin Size Platform Bed with Six Drawers is easy. First, place the bed in your desired spot in the bedroom. Since it's a twin - size bed, it should fit nicely in most kids' rooms. Then, put your standard twin - size mattress on the 10 slats that provide great support. You can start storing clothes or other small items in the six drawers right away. When it comes to maintenance, simply wipe the bed frame with a clean, dry cloth regularly to keep the espresso finish looking good. Avoid using harsh chemicals as the bed is made of environmentally - friendly materials and has a green paint surface. Also, keep in mind that the bed can hold up to 200lbs, so don't overload it. This bed is great for kids, but make sure to teach them how to use the drawers gently to ensure the long - lasting quality of the bed.
