Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
The GFW Ottoman Bed requires self-assembly. All necessary components and instructions are provided. It is recommended to follow the step-by-step guide carefully to ensure correct and secure construction. Assembling the gas hydraulic system will require attention to detail to ensure smooth operation of the ottoman lift.
Compatibility
- Mattress: This bed is designed for a 135cm double mattress (UK double size). Please note that the mattress is not included with the bed frame.
- Flooring: If placing the bed on an un-carpeted floor (e.g., hardwood, laminate, or tile), it is highly recommended to use rubber or felt protection pads under the legs. This will prevent potential damage to your floors and ensure the stability of the bed.
Care
- Cleaning: The high-quality faux leather finish is relatively low maintenance. For general cleaning, simply wipe down the surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive materials, as these can damage the faux leather.
- Ottoman Mechanism: Periodically check the gas hydraulic system for any signs of wear or stiffness. Keep the area around the lifting mechanism clear of obstructions.
- General Maintenance: Regularly check all bolts and connections to ensure they remain tight, especially after initial assembly and periodically thereafter, to maintain the bed's stability and integrity.
