Using this bed is easy. First, find a suitable spot in your larger bedroom. Since it's an all - in - one platform design, you can directly place your standard king - size mattress on the bed frame without the need for a box spring. Assembly is required, but don't worry, it can be set up in just 45 minutes. Make sure to follow the instructions carefully. When it comes to maintenance, wipe the solid pine wood surface with a soft, dry cloth regularly to keep it clean. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they may damage the stain on the wood. If there are any spills, clean them up right away. And always check the legs and connections periodically to ensure they're tight and secure for a long - lasting and safe sleep experience.
