Using your new Berkley daybed is a breeze. First, you'll need to get a twin-sized mattress as it's not included. Place the mattress inside the internal opening which measures 76 inches wide and 37.5 inches deep. During the day, you can add your favorite throw pillows to make it a great spot to sit and relax. At night, it's the perfect place to sleep. When it comes to maintenance, keep it clean by dusting it regularly with a soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they may damage the antique white finish. If there are any spills, wipe them up right away. Also, be careful not to scratch the metal arches. With proper care, your daybed will stay in great shape for a long time.
