6. Usage Guidelines

• Mattress Compatibility: This platform bed frame is designed to support a Queen size mattress (60" x 80"). A mattress thickness of 8" to 14" is recommended for optimal headboard visibility and comfort.
• Box Spring: A box spring is optional with this bed frame due to the robust wooden slat support system.
• Weight Capacity: The bed frame has a maximum weight capacity of 800 pounds. Do not exceed this limit to ensure safety and product longevity.

7. Care and Maintenance

• Cleaning the Fabric: For general cleaning, gently vacuum the velvet upholstery with a soft brush attachment to remove dust and debris. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher stains, a mild fabric cleaner designed for velvet can be used, following the product's instructions and testing on an inconspicuous area first.
• Frame Care: Wipe down the non-upholstered parts of the frame with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Dry immediately.
• Regular Checks: Periodically inspect all bolts, screws, and connections to ensure they are tight. Retighten as needed to maintain stability and prevent squeaking.
• Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause the velvet fabric to fade. Position the bed away from direct sunlight or use curtains/blinds.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or solvents on any part of the bed frame, as these can damage the finish or fabric.
