• Sleeping Area: The top bunk provides a comfortable sleeping area for a twin-sized mattress. Ensure the mattress fits snugly within the guardrails.
• Side Ladder: Use the integrated side ladder for safe and easy access to the loft bed. The vertical design of the ladder helps save space.
• Removable Slide: The smooth slide offers an enjoyable way to descend from the bed. It can be easily attached or removed based on preference and space availability. Always ensure the slide is securely fastened when in use.
• Under-Bed Space: The spacious area beneath the loft bed can be utilized for various purposes. It is ideal for creating a play area, a study nook with a desk and chair, or for additional storage solutions.

• Wood Care: Protect the wood from extreme temperature changes and direct sunlight, which can cause fading or cracking.
• Slide and Ladder: Keep the slide surface clean and free of debris. Ensure the ladder rungs are free from obstructions.
