What is a headboard?

Headboards are pieces of furniture that attach to the top of a bed and act as a barrier between the bed and the wall. Originally designed to minimise drafts in poorly insulated buildings, they also sit between the sleeper and the wall and prevent damage or abrasion.

Today, most homes are well-insulated, so headboards tend to serve more aesthetic purposes, and can be carefully selected to match the design of a bedroom. Practically, they provide support to pillows, and allow you to lean back more comfortably.

Do you need a headboard?

While headboards aren't essential, they do provide extra comfort, prevent scuffs or damage to your wall, and make your bedroom more visually attractive. Ultimately, they come with plenty of advantages for a fairly low price.

What are the benefits of headboards?

• They prevent your head from hitting the wall

• They prevent wall damage

• They allow you to lean back comfortably

• They're decorative and can elevate the design of your room
