6. Care and Maintenance

To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Storkcraft Long Horn Bunk Bed, follow these care instructions:

• Wipe surfaces with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the finish.
• Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth.
• Periodically check and tighten all hardware to ensure the bed remains stable and secure.
• Protect the bed from direct sunlight and extreme temperature changes to prevent warping or fading.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your bunk bed, consider the following common solutions:

• Wobbling or Instability: Check all bolts and screws to ensure they are securely tightened. Uneven flooring can also contribute to wobbling; try repositioning the bed or using furniture pads.
• Squeaking Noises: Squeaking often indicates loose connections. Re-tighten all hardware. Applying a small amount of wax or lubricant to metal-on-metal contact points (if applicable) can also help.
