• Mattress Placement: Place your full-size mattress directly onto the wooden support slats.
• Door Functionality: The small door allows for easy entry and exit. Ensure the latch is properly engaged when the door is closed to keep it secure.
• Low Profile Design: The low height of the bed makes it easily accessible.

• Avoid Moisture: Keep the bed away from excessive moisture or direct sunlight to prevent warping or fading of the wood.

7. Troubleshooting

Common Issues and Solutions:

• Bed feels wobbly: Ensure all bolts and screws are fully tightened. Check that the bed is on a level surface.
• Slats are not fitting: Double-check that the side rails are correctly installed and that the slats are oriented properly.
