Using this King Upholstered Platform Bed is a breeze. First, find a suitable spot in your bedroom. Once you've placed it, you can directly put your mattress on the wooden support slats - no need for a box spring. The adjustable floor glides under the bed allow you to make it level on different floor surfaces. When it comes to cleaning, you don't have to worry much. Just use a vacuum or lightly brush the faux linen upholstery to keep it looking fresh. As for maintenance, try to avoid placing sharp objects on the bed to prevent scratching the fabric. Also, don't overload the bed; it has a static weight capacity of up to 850 LBS. If you notice any loose parts during assembly or use, tighten them up. With proper use and care, this bed will serve you well for a long time.
