Using your Weekender Modern Platform Bed Frame is a breeze. First, unpack all the parts and the included tools. Lay out the pieces and follow the simple instructions to assemble the frame in about 10 minutes. Once assembled, place your mattress on top. You can use the 12 - inch space under the bed to store items like extra bedding, seasonal clothes, or shoes. When it comes to maintenance, simply wipe the steel frame with a dry or slightly damp cloth to keep it clean. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could scratch the matte - black finish. Make sure not to exceed the 2,500 - pound weight limit to ensure the frame's long - term durability. If you want to attach a headboard, just use the provided headboard slots. And remember, your bed frame is covered by a 5 - year warranty, so if you have any issues, you're in good hands.
