The Best Headboards in Australia for 2026: Bedheads Checked on Amazon AU

Why does a headboard make a bedroom feel finished?

A headboard finishes a bedroom because it gives the bed a visual top edge, something to lean on when you read, and a barrier between your pillows and the wall. Headboard and bedhead mean the same thing, and bedhead is the common Australian word. This guide covers only headboards with an Amazon AU listing.

If comfort is what the bed is missing, a mattress topper that softens a firm bed changes the feel without replacing the mattress.

The headboard we chose as best overall is the Artiss Headboard Double Size Bed Head Velvet Fabric Grey, a Double size velvet headboard sold by Artiss Furnishings. Its listing shows 5.0 out of 5 stars from only 1 rating, so the count is thin and the score is an early signal, not a track record. Two other headboards can also be bought: the OIKITURE Single Headboard Arched Bed Head in white boucle, which shows 4.8 stars from 5 ratings, and the vidaXL Headboards Dark Grey set of 2, which shows 5.0 stars from 1 rating. The table sets the three side by side.

Seven of the ten listings in this guide have a dated note, so they are not in the table. They are kept further down for reference and are not recommended.

Headboards on Amazon AU come as panels that stand on their own, panels that fix to a bed frame and panels that fix to a wall, and the listings label the difference in different places. Eight of the ten listings give a Mounting Type row in the product information table: five say Bed Frame Mount, two say Freestanding and one says Wall Mount. The Artiss double and the Advwin give no Mounting Type row, so for those two we use the bullet points.

We read the title, bullet points, product information table and description of every listing, and we name the part of the listing each fact comes from. Where one listing gives the same fact two ways, we show both values and do not pick one. Prices are not in this guide, so open the listing for the current price and seller.

Once the bedhead is sorted, check the gap under the frame too: our guide to under bed storage that fits a low bed frame gives the height each listing states.

How we checked these headboards

NestPath does not run a furniture lab and we do not claim to. We read what each Amazon AU listing says about itself: the title, the bullet points, the product information table, the description and any A+ text, which is the maker's own wording on the page. Specs come from the maker's bullet points and the product information on each listing, and we say where the listing contradicts itself. Here is what shaped the order of this guide.

• Ratings and counts. Where a listing shows a star rating we give it with its count, and a count of one or a handful is called thin. The vidaXL black headboard shows no rating at all.
• Sizes. We give each size as the listing gives it and name the part of the listing it sits in, because several listings give two or three sizes for one headboard.
• Fitting. We record the Mounting Type row of the product information table where there is one and the bullet points where there is not.
• Fabric, padding and frame. We use the words each listing uses, such as velvet, faux linen, boucle, PU leather, polyester, foam, sponge, pine, MDF and metal.
• Care. We repeat the Product Care Instructions row of the product table where a listing has one and say plainly where it has none.
• Listings with a dated note. Seven of the ten listings have a dated note. They are left out of the comparison table, kept for reference and not recommended.

Where a listing made a claim we could not match to its own title, bullets, product table or description, we left it out.

Best overall: Artiss Headboard Double Size Bed Head Velvet Fabric Grey

The Artiss Headboard Double Size Bed Head Velvet Fabric Grey is the headboard we chose as best overall, with a clear warning: its listing shows 5.0 out of 5 stars from only 1 rating. That is a single rating, so read the score as an early signal and not a track record. The listing names Artiss Furnishings as the shipper and seller, and its title describes a Double size bed head in grey velvet fabric.

The bullet points describe upholstery in velvet fabric chosen for breathability, a modern vertical stripe design, a curved shape, a durable solid wood frame filled with high density foam, and a bed head that requires no installation. The description adds that the foam measures an extra thick 8cm, that the back has a breathable non woven fabric and that the base is anti scratch. It lists the design as art deco inspired and says the product comes with 1 year warranty.

The product information table lists Size Double, Color Grey, Item Weight 43.9 Kilograms, Model Number BED-HEAD-WING-D-GY, Manufacturer Warranty Description 1 year and Country of Publication China. The title ends with the word Wing, and the description lists the package content as one Wing bed head.

This listing gives several facts two ways. The fabric is velvet in the title, bullets and description, while the product table lists Material Type Sponge,Suede,Pine Wood. The size is 120W x 138H centimetres in the product table, while the description lists Overall dimensions 138cm x 120cm x 8cm without saying which figure is the width. Installation is a third: the bullets say it requires no installation and the table says Required Assembly No, but the table also lists an installation manual under Included Components. Measure your bed frame and check with the seller before you buy if any of these matter to you.

The bullets, description and product table give no care instructions and no Mounting Type row, so the listing does not say how the headboard fits to a bed frame or whether it stands on its own.

Flaws but not dealbreakers

The count is the obvious flaw. One rating cannot tell you how the velvet wears or how the headboard arrives, and the listing gives you no care line to follow. The product table lists an item weight of 43.9 Kilograms, so check that figure and how you will move it before you order. This listing is the Double size, so check that your bed is a Double before ordering.

It suits a Double bed where you want velvet with a vertical stripe and a curved shape, and where you are happy to rely on the listing's own words because few buyers have rated it. If you want a headboard with many ratings behind it, none of the three we can point you to has more than five.

Artiss Queen Size Bed Headboard Tufted Grey Faux Linen (previous pick, has a dated note)

Could not be bought on 24 October 2026: the Amazon AU listing showed no Add to Cart button and our stock feed marks it out of stock. This was our previous pick. It is kept here for reference and is not recommended.

The listing title describes a Queen size button tufted headboard in grey faux linen with foam and wood, 162 x 120 x 8cm. The bullets call it a button tufted design with a sturdy wooden frame, non woven faux linen upholstery and high density foam padding, and say it is freestanding on anti scratch plastic feet. It showed 4.6 out of 5 stars from 185 ratings.

The product information table lists Mounting Type Freestanding, Product Care Instructions Wipe With Dry Cloth, Item Weight 15 Kilograms, Item Depth 8 centimeters and Required Assembly No.

This listing gives its size two ways. The title says 162 x 120 x 8cm and the Item Dimensions row says 162 x 8 x 120 centimetres, but the Item Dimensions W x H row reads 120.5W x 120H centimetres. It also names its fabric two ways: the bullets and title say faux linen, while the product table lists Material Type Linen,Plastic and Upholstery Fabric Type Linen.

Flaws but not dealbreakers

The dated note is the main flaw. The two width figures also differ, so a buyer would need to measure the frame against the table before ordering. The care line is Wipe With Dry Cloth, and the listing gives no other cleaning method.

OIKITURE Queen Bed Headboard Pine Wood Frame Beige (has a dated note)

Could not be bought on 24 October 2026: the Amazon AU listing showed no Add to Cart button and our stock feed marks it out of stock. It is kept here for reference and is not recommended.

The title describes a Queen bed headboard with a pine wood frame, 160x100x6.5CM, in Beige. The bullets name a tall fabric bed head for back and head support, a sturdy pine wood frame and legs, high density foam padding and dotted accents, and say it is easy to assemble and maintain. It showed 4.6 out of 5 stars from 13 ratings.

The product information table lists Item Weight 25.34 Kilograms, Frame Material Type Pine, Upholstery Fabric Type Polyester, Mounting Type Bed Frame Mount, Product Care Instructions Wipe With Dry Cloth and Required Assembly No, with Assembly Instructions x1 under Included Components.

Several facts are given two ways. The title says 160x100x6.5CM while the table lists 164 x 103 x 6 centimetres and 164L x 103W x 6.5H centimetres, with an Item Depth of 6.5 centimeters. The title says Beige while the table says Color Cream. Assembly is called easy in the bullets, the table says Required Assembly No, and it also lists assembly instructions as an included component.

Flaws but not dealbreakers

The dated note is the main flaw. The listing also gives two colours and two sets of dimensions, and the table weight of 25.34 Kilograms is worth knowing before you carry it upstairs.

Giantex Single Size Headboard 90cm PU Leather (has a dated note)

Could not be bought on 24 October 2026: the Amazon AU listing said 'Currently unavailable. We don't know when or if this item will be back in stock.' It is kept here for reference and is not recommended.

The title describes a Single size, 90cm, modern PU leather upholstered headboard for a bedroom or guest room. The bullets describe high grade MDF with reinforced metal connectors, a padded headboard filled with high density sponge, and a wall mounted design with predrilled holes so you can set the height by mattress thickness. It showed 4.2 out of 5 stars from 4 ratings.

The product information table lists Mounting Type Wall Mount, Frame Material Type Mdf,Metal, Upholstery Fabric Type PU Leather, Item Weight 5.3 Kilograms, Color Black and Product Care Instructions Wipe with Dry Cloth, with a User Manual under Included Components.

The size is given two ways: the title says 90cm and the table lists Item Dimensions 88 x 53 centimetres. The bullets say one headboard suits a twin size bed frame, one or two suit a full size frame, and two suit a queen or king frame. They also say you mount the headboard to the wall by tightening the screws, so it needs fixing to a wall.

Flaws but not dealbreakers

The dated note is the main flaw. The bullets say it fixes to the wall with screws, so check any lease or wall before ordering a headboard like this. Only 4 ratings stand behind the 4.2 score, and the listing's care line is Wipe with Dry Cloth.

Artiss Headboard King Size Bed Head Velvet Grey Vela (has a dated note)

Could not be bought on 24 October 2026: the Amazon AU listing showed no Add to Cart button and our stock feed marks it out of stock. It is kept here for reference and is not recommended.

The title describes a King size velvet grey bed head. The bullets name a solid wood frame, velvet fabric, 8cm thick high density foam and overall dimensions of 183cm x 120cm x 8cm. It showed 4.6 out of 5 stars from 101 ratings.

The product information table lists Size King, Frame Material Type Wood, Upholstery Fabric Type Velvet, Mounting Type Bed Frame Mount, Form Factor Vertical Channel Tufted, Item Weight 17.5 Kilograms, Required Assembly No and Product Care Instructions Hand Wash Only.

The size is given two ways. The bullets and the Item Dimensions row say 183 x 120 centimetres, while the Item Dimensions W x H row reads 8W x 120H centimetres and the Item Depth row says 8 cm.

Flaws but not dealbreakers

The dated note is the main flaw. The care line is Hand Wash Only, which is the listing's own instruction and not a wipe with a dry cloth line like the four on other listings. The Mounting Type row says Bed Frame Mount, so check your frame before ordering a headboard like this.

OIKITURE Single Headboard Arched Bed Head White Boucle

The OIKITURE Single Headboard Arched Bed Head in white boucle shows 4.8 out of 5 stars from 5 ratings, so the count is thin. The title gives a Single size, and the bullets describe boucle upholstery, an arched design, plastic legs, foam cushioning and a fit for standard Australian sized bed frames.

On 24 October 2026 this listing showed no seller name, so check the seller and delivery on the listing before you buy.

The product information table lists Upholstery Fabric Type Boucle, Size Single, Color White, Form Factor Arched, Mounting Type Bed Frame Mount, Item Weight 17 Kilograms, Manufacturer Warranty Description 1 Year Warranty and Model Number HB-MUNA-S-SP-WH. The description repeats the plastic legs and lists easy maintenance and cleaning, but the product table has no care instruction row and neither the table nor the description gives a cleaning method.

This listing gives its size three ways: the title says 92.5x94x5.5cm, the product table says Item Dimensions 103 x 96 x 6.5 centimetres with an Item Depth of 5.5 centimeters, and the description lists Single 91cm x 99cm x 5.5cm. Assembly is also given three ways. The table says Required Assembly No and lists Assembly Instructions x 1 as an included component, while the description says Assembly required:Yes and Require simple assembly. The bullets name plastic legs and the table says Bed Frame Mount, so check how it attaches to your bed before you buy.

It is a Single size headboard, so it suits a single bed, and the bullets say it is designed to fit standard Australian sized bed frames. If you need a wider headboard, this is not the listing for it.

Flaws but not dealbreakers

Only 5 ratings stand behind the 4.8 score. The three sizes mean you should measure before ordering, and the assembly wording does not agree with itself, so check the included instructions when it arrives. The listing gives no cleaning method.

Artiss Queen Bed Headboard Wingback Tufted Grey Faux Linen (has a dated note)

Could not be bought on 24 October 2026: the Amazon AU listing showed no Add to Cart button and our stock feed marks it out of stock. It is kept here for reference and is not recommended.

The title describes a Queen headboard in grey faux linen, 166 x 120 x 15cm. The bullets name a button tufted and winged design with metallic stud embellishments, a sturdy wooden frame, non woven faux linen upholstery, high density foam padding, and a freestanding stance on anti scratch rubber wood legs. It showed 4.2 out of 5 stars from 28 ratings.

The product information table lists Mounting Type Freestanding, Item Weight 21 Kilograms, Upholstery Fabric Type Faux Linen, Frame Material Type Wood, Style Name Art Deco, Product Care Instructions Wipe With Dry Cloth and a User Manual under Included Components.

The size is given three ways in the product table: 166 x 15 x 120 centimetres, 166W x 120H centimetres and 166L x 166W x 120H centimetres. The title gives 166 x 120 x 15cm.

Flaws but not dealbreakers

The dated note is the main flaw. The size forms do not match each other, so measure before ordering a headboard like this. The care line is Wipe With Dry Cloth.

Advwin Velvet Upholstered Headboard Queen Size with LED Light, Charging Station and 2 Tier Shelves (has a dated note)

Could not be bought on 24 October 2026: the Amazon AU listing showed no Add to Cart button and our stock feed marks it out of stock. It is kept here for reference and is not recommended.

The title describes a Queen size velvet upholstered headboard with an LED light, a charging station and 2 tier shelves, height adjustable. The bullets name a built in charging station with 2 standard plug outlets, 1 type C port and 1 USB port, RGB LED lights controlled through an app over bluetooth, a 2 tier storage shelf for books, alarm clocks and other bedside essentials, a design made of brown MDF board, a black metal frame and grey linen soft upholstery filled with high density sponge, and 2 adjustable bed frame iron adapters. It showed 4.6 out of 5 stars from 11 ratings.

The product information table lists Material Type Engineered Wood, Frame Material Type Metal, Size Queen, Item Weight 16 Kilograms, Item Dimensions 153 x 105 centimetres, Style Name Rustic and Required Assembly Yes, with an assemble manual under Included Components. The A+ text mentions Australian Standards for the sockets, but the bullets and product table give no voltage or wattage, so we state none.

The upholstery is given two ways: the title says velvet, while the bullets say grey linen soft upholstered.

Flaws but not dealbreakers

The dated note is the main flaw. Required Assembly Yes and the electrical parts mean setup is a bigger job than a plain panel, and we have not checked its electrical details, which is another reason it is not recommended.

vidaXL Headboard Black 100 cm Fabric (has a dated note)

Could not be bought on 24 October 2026: the Amazon AU listing said 'Currently unavailable. We don't know when or if this item will be back in stock.' It is kept here for reference and is not recommended.

The title describes a black 100 cm fabric headboard. The bullets name an adjustable height, 100% polyester, an included assembly manual and solid larch wood legs. The listing shows no star rating and no ratings count.

The product information table lists Mounting Type Bed Frame Mount, Item Weight 5.4 Kilograms, Size 100 cm, Product Care Instructions Dry Clean Only, Required Assembly Yes, Shape Rectangular and Form Factor Panel.

The size is given two ways: the title and the Size row say 100 cm, while the Item Dimensions W x H row reads 5W x 88H centimetres and the Item Dimensions row reads 50 x 880 millimetres.

Flaws but not dealbreakers

The dated note is the main flaw, and with no rating shown there is nothing to weigh the listing's claims against. The care line is Dry Clean Only.

vidaXL Headboards Dark Grey 144x5x78/88 cm Fabric

The vidaXL Headboards Dark Grey 144x5x78/88 cm Fabric listing shows 5.0 out of 5 stars from only 1 rating, so the count is thin, and it names vidaXL AU as the shipper and seller. The bullets describe a classic set of 2 dark grey fabric headboards for any bed frame, 100% polyester fabric, adjustable height and excellent back support when sitting up in bed.

The product information table lists Number of Items 2, Size 144 cm, Upholstery Fabric Type Polyester, Frame Material Type Engineered Wood, Mounting Type Bed Frame Mount, Item Weight 8.1 Kilograms, Required Assembly Yes and Product Care Instructions Dry Clean Only. The bullets say a full assembly manual is included and that the bed frame and mattress are not included. The description says the delivery contains 2 x Headboard and lists each headboard at 72 x 5 x 78/88 cm (W x D x H).

This listing gives its size more than one way. The title says 144x5x78/88 cm and the description says Overall dimensions 144 x 5 x 78/88 cm (W x D x H), while the product table lists Item Dimensions W x H 5W x 88H centimetres and Item Dimensions 50 x 880 millimetres. The table also lists Shape Heart and Form Factor Rectangular, so we do not state a shape. Its Unit Count row says 1.00 square meter while Number of Items says 2, so we go by the bullets and the description: a set of 2 headboards. The title and description give the height as 78/88 and the bullets say the height is adjustable, but the bullets, description and product table do not say how the adjustment works.

Flaws but not dealbreakers

One rating is too few to learn how the set wears. The care line is Dry Clean Only, which differs from the wipe with a dry cloth lines on four of the listings with a dated note. The delivery is headboards only, so you still need a bed frame, and the set of 2 is sized at 144 cm across, so measure your frame against the table and the description before you order.

What should you look for when buying a headboard in Australia?

Check four things: how it mounts, its width against your frame, the fabric and care line, and the height. Each Amazon AU listing gives these in different places, so read the title, bullet points and product table together, and treat any disagreement between them as a reason to measure or ask before buying.

Mounting comes first. The Mounting Type row of the product information table says Bed Frame Mount for five headboards: the OIKITURE queen, the Artiss king, the OIKITURE arched, the vidaXL black and the vidaXL set. It says Freestanding for the two Artiss queens and Wall Mount for the Giantex, and the Artiss double and the Advwin have no Mounting Type row. The OIKITURE queen, Artiss king, both Artiss queens, Giantex, vidaXL black and Advwin each have a dated note. The OIKITURE arched, the vidaXL set and the Artiss double do not.

What the labels mean comes from the listings. The Artiss queen bullets say the bedhead can stand on its own, and the Giantex (has a dated note) bullets say you mount the headboard to the wall by tightening the screws. A Bed Frame Mount label means the listing expects the headboard to fix to a bed frame: the vidaXL set bullets say it is for any bed frame, and the Advwin (has a dated note) bullets name 2 adjustable bed frame iron adapters. Check that your frame suits the fixings before you order.

Fabric is the next choice, and the listings name it in different places. The Artiss double says velvet in its title and bullets, and the Artiss king says velvet in its bullets and its Upholstery Fabric Type row. The OIKITURE arched says boucle in its title, bullets and table. The vidaXL set and the vidaXL black say 100% polyester in their bullets and Polyester in the table. The two Artiss queens say faux linen, the Giantex says PU leather, and the Advwin title says velvet while its bullets say grey linen. Padding is described as foam or sponge: high density foam in the Artiss double, both Artiss queens and OIKITURE queen bullets, 8cm thick high density foam in the Artiss king, foam cushioning in the OIKITURE arched, and high density sponge in the Giantex and Advwin bullets.

On frame and weight, we use the materials and item weights the listings give and make no claim about which headboard is strongest. The Artiss double lists a solid wood frame in its bullets and Item Weight 43.9 Kilograms, the OIKITURE queen a pine wood frame and legs and 25.34 Kilograms, the Artiss wingback (has a dated note) a wooden frame and 21 Kilograms, the Artiss king (has a dated note) a solid wood frame and 17.5 Kilograms, the OIKITURE arched 17 Kilograms, the Advwin a black metal frame and 16 Kilograms, the Artiss queen 15 Kilograms, the vidaXL set 8.1 Kilograms, the vidaXL black 5.4 Kilograms and the Giantex 5.3 Kilograms. A figure like 43.9 Kilograms is one to check with the seller.

Finally, weigh features against simplicity. The Advwin (has a dated note) bundles a charging station, LED lights and a 2 tier shelf, and its product table says Required Assembly Yes. The vidaXL set and the vidaXL black (has a dated note) list adjustable height, and the Giantex (has a dated note) lists predrilled holes to set the height. A plain panel such as the Artiss double lists Required Assembly No in its product table. Decide which features you will use before you choose.

For a small bedroom, compare depth. The OIKITURE arched lists Item Depth 5.5 centimeters in its product table, the vidaXL set lists Item Depth 5 cm, and the Artiss double has no depth row, though the last figure of its description's Overall dimensions is 8cm.

Which size and height should you look for?

Match the headboard width to your bed frame and the height to how you sit in bed. The listings give sizes in the title and in the product table, and sometimes the two differ. Measure your frame, then compare it with the table's width and height rather than the size name alone.

The Queen listings show why. We read four Queen size listings and their Item Dimensions rows start with four different figures: 153 centimetres for the Advwin (has a dated note), 162 for the Artiss queen tufted (has a dated note), 164 for the OIKITURE queen (has a dated note) and 166 for the Artiss wingback (has a dated note). The one King listing, the Artiss king (has a dated note), gives 183 x 120 centimetres. The Artiss double gives 120 x 138 centimetres in its product table. A size name tells you which bed the maker has in mind, not an exact width.

The labels differ too. The OIKITURE queen (has a dated note) lists 164L x 103W x 6.5H centimetres, which labels 164 as the length, and its W x H row reads 103W x 6.5H centimetres. The Artiss wingback (has a dated note) lists 166L x 166W x 120H centimetres and also 166 x 15 x 120 centimetres. Treat the numbers as a prompt to measure, not as a fit guide.

For height, the Artiss double product table lists 138H centimetres, while its description lists Overall dimensions 138cm x 120cm x 8cm. The vidaXL set title gives 78/88 cm, its description gives 78/88 cm (W x D x H) for each headboard, its product table gives 88H centimetres and its bullets say the height is adjustable. The Giantex bullets (has a dated note) say predrilled holes let you set the headboard height according to the thickness of the mattress. The OIKITURE arched listing gives three sizes: 92.5x94x5.5cm in the title, 103 x 96 x 6.5 centimetres in the product table and 91cm x 99cm x 5.5cm in the description.

If you end up propped against a low headboard, our guide to the best bolster pillows in Australia covers pillows that support the back.

How do you care for and clean an upholstered headboard?

Follow the care line on the listing. The vidaXL set product table says Dry Clean Only, and the Artiss double and OIKITURE arched listings give no care instruction row in their product tables. When a listing gives no care line, ask the seller before cleaning and do not guess.

Where a listing gives a Product Care Instructions row we repeat it exactly. It says Dry Clean Only for the vidaXL set and the vidaXL black (has a dated note), Wipe With Dry Cloth for the Artiss queen, the OIKITURE queen and the Artiss wingback (each has a dated note), Wipe with Dry Cloth for the Giantex (has a dated note), and Hand Wash Only for the Artiss king (has a dated note). That is two Dry Clean Only lines, four wipe with a dry cloth lines and one Hand Wash Only line. The Artiss double, the OIKITURE arched and the Advwin product tables have no care instruction row.

The OIKITURE arched description lists easy maintenance and cleaning without giving a method, and the Artiss double gives no care line anywhere in its bullets, product table or description. The Artiss king (has a dated note), whose Upholstery Fabric Type row is Velvet, is the one velvet listing with a care line, and it says Hand Wash Only. Do not assume a wipe or a vacuum is safe on velvet or boucle when the listing is silent.

Where do the headboard listings disagree with themselves?

Several listings give one fact in more than one way. The OIKITURE arched title says 92.5x94x5.5cm, its product table says 103 x 96 x 6.5 centimetres and its description says 91cm x 99cm x 5.5cm. The vidaXL set title says 144x5x78/88 cm while its table says 5W x 88H centimetres. Measure your frame first.

• Artiss double. Fabric: velvet in the title and bullets, Material Type Sponge,Suede,Pine Wood in the product table. Size: 120W x 138H centimetres in the table, Overall dimensions 138cm x 120cm x 8cm in the description.

We do not pick a winner between two figures on the same listing. Where the gap matters for your bed, check with the seller before you buy.

Frequently asked questions about headboards

How do I know what headboard to buy?

Start with the width of your bed frame, then decide how the headboard fits: mounted to the frame, stood behind the bed, or fixed to the wall. Next check the listing's height, fabric and care line. On the Amazon AU listings we checked, those details sit in the title, bullet points, product table and sometimes the description.

What to put instead of a headboard?

If you do not want a headboard, you can leave the wall bare, hang art or a fabric piece behind the bed, or fit shelves above it. These are our suggestions, not listing claims. A headboard also gives you something to lean on, so check how you sit in bed first.

Why are bed headboards so high?

Height matters for support when you sit up in bed. The vidaXL bullets say it provides excellent back support when sitting up in bed, and it is adjustable in height. Its title gives 78/88 cm and its product table 88H centimetres. The Artiss double product table gives 138H centimetres.

Which is better, a low or high headboard?

It depends on how you use the bed. A taller headboard gives more to lean on when you read or sit up, while a low one gives less to lean on. The vidaXL listing has adjustable height, and the Artiss product table lists 138 centimetres high. Measure your mattress height and how high you sit before you choose.

What kind of headboards are in style right now?

We have no sales or trend data, so we only describe the listings we checked. The Artiss double is velvet with a curved shape, the OIKITURE single is boucle with an arched shape, and the vidaXL set is polyester with adjustable height. Check each listing before you buy.
