Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Your Kosy Koala Ottoman Storage Bed is designed for easy assembly, with clear instructions provided. We recommend setting aside adequate space and time for the process. Typically, assembly involves:
- Unpacking: Carefully unbox all components and check against the parts list.
- Frame Assembly: Securely connect the main frame sections using the provided hardware.
- Gas Lift Installation: Attach the gas lift mechanisms according to instructions. This is a critical step for smooth operation.
- Slat Base Installation: Fit the wooden slats onto the frame.
- Final Touches: Ensure all bolts are tightened, and the bed frame is stable.
> Tip: Having an extra person to help can make assembly quicker and safer, especially when handling larger components.
Compatibility
- Mattress: This 3ft bed frame is designed for a standard 3ft single mattress. Please ensure your mattress dimensions match to ensure a proper fit and comfortable sleep. The bed does *not* come with a mattress.
- Room Space: With dimensions of W 97.5 cm x L 206 cm x H 100 cm (headboard), 45 cm (footboard), ensure you have enough space in your bedroom, allowing for the bed's footprint and comfortable access to the storage mechanism.
Care & Maintenance
Proper care will help maintain the beauty and functionality of your Ottoman bed.
- Velvet Upholstery:
- Regularly vacuum the velvet using a soft brush attachment to remove dust and debris.
- For spills, gently blot with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid rubbing, as this can damage the pile. Use a specialist velvet cleaner for tougher stains, following product instructions carefully.
- Keep out of direct sunlight to prevent fading.
- Frame:
- Wipe the visible frame (if any, typically covered by upholstery) with a soft, damp cloth.
- Periodically check and retighten any loose screws or bolts to maintain structural integrity.
- Gas Lift Mechanism:
- Ensure the mechanism is kept free of obstructions. Do not force it if it resists.
- > Info needed: Check manufacturer guidelines for any specific lubrication or maintenance required for the gas struts.
