Maintenance

To maintain the appearance and longevity of your ZINUS Curtis Upholstered Platform Bed Frame, follow these simple care instructions:

  • Upholstery Care: Spot clean only. Use a mild detergent and a damp cloth to gently blot any spills or stains. Avoid saturating the fabric.
  • Frame Inspection: Periodically check all bolts and connections to ensure they remain tight. Retighten if necessary to maintain stability and prevent squeaking.
  • Cleaning Underneath: For cleaning under the bed, it is recommended to lift the bed rather than dragging it, especially if it is loaded with a mattress and bedding. This prevents undue stress on the legs and frame.
