How to Care for Wood Furniture:
1. Keep furniture away from heating and air conditioning sources to prevent loss of moisture; and avoid direct sunlight to prevent fading or darkening of wood.
2. Use felt backing on lamps and other accessories to prevent scratches and gouges, and rotate accessories so they do not remain in the same spot all the time.
3. Use placemats under plates and hot pads under serving dishes and coasters under beverages.
4. Do not place newspapers or magazines on woods surfaces. The ink from these items may bleed into the finish and could damage the wood.

How to Care for Your Mattress:
1. To help keep your mattress clean, a thin mattress protector is recommended so it breathes to allow airflow and heat dissipation.
2. Don’t use dry cleaning fluid of any type on your mattress. These chemicals could damage some of the comfort and upholstery materials.
3. Vacuuming is the only recommended cleaning method. If you must clean a stain, use mild soap with cold water and apply lightly, allowing the mattress time to fully air dry.
4. Please remind the kids not to jump on their mattress, as doing so can break down the inner construction and materials.
