• Squeaking Noises: If the bed frame develops squeaking noises, check all assembly bolts and screws. Tighten any loose fasteners. Ensure the mattress is properly seated on the slats.
• Instability/Wobbling: If the frame feels unstable, verify that all legs are making firm contact with the floor and that all connections are secure. Re-check the assembly steps.
• Mattress Shifting: The bed frame includes non-slip tape on the slats. If your mattress is still shifting, ensure the tape is clean and free of debris.
