4. Maintenance and Care
- Cleaning: Wipe the bed frame with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the wood finish.

- Wood Care: Protect the wood from direct sunlight and extreme temperature changes to prevent warping or cracking.
- Drawer Maintenance: Ensure drawers slide smoothly. If they become stiff, clean the tracks and apply a small amount of silicone lubricant if needed.
