6. Care and Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Home Centre Hive bed.

- Frame (Engineered Wood): Wipe the wood surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Dry immediately with a clean cloth.
- General: Periodically check all bolts and screws and tighten them if necessary to maintain structural integrity.
