Absolutely adore this headboard Sophisticated yet unpretentious, it blends beautifully with my existing decor. There's a classy elegance in the button detailing - subtle, but it makes all the difference. However, the fabric wasn't as snug around the corners as I'd expected.

Delighted with the Fairfield headboard! The charming button detailing adds an elegant flair, and its soft twill finish makes it both visually and physically pleasing. However, the installation could use some improvement. Overall, a stylish addition to my bedroom decor.

Questions and Answers About The Dreams Workshop Fairfield Headboard

Prospective customers had the following questions about the product

Heidi491
Could you tell me the distance between the struts and also if the beige fabric colour is true to your pictures as I don't want a pink tone? Thank you

Answer: The Distance between the struts will depend on the size of the Headboard selected. They are approximately 5cm in for each edge of the divan base. With regards to the colour we do try the hardest to match the colours online and in person if you would like to visit the local store you can get a better idea of the true colour. alternatively you can call the customer service team and they can try and arrange a swatch to be sent out to you.

We have the exact same dreams bed posted on the photo of the headboard. (We bought our bed 8y ago though. Similar to the photo its a base and a mattress). We don't see at all how to fix this to the bed. What are we supposed to do with he wooden legs?

Answer: The wooden struts are used to attach the headboard to the divan base. You will need two headboard bolts which you should have originally received with the divan base fixing kit. You will be able to feel holes underneath the fabric for where the bolts need to attach. You can pierce the fabric with the bolts and and fasten them into place, lower the headboard struts onto the bolts before fully tightening them.

Is the slate grey colour the same as online or is it a dark grey it looks like a mid to light grey in the picture also can we buy fixings from dreams

Answer: The Fairfield is available in Silver Fabric or Slate Linen. Both fabrics are different textures so will look different online. I would advise you pop into a local dreams showroom to get a real idea of what the fabric looks like.

Our bed is double 180 cm wide. Do I need to buy King size headboard if I want it to cover whole width?

Answer: 180cm is a UK standard Super king size so if you would like to cover the whole divan base you will need to purchase a Super king. The dimensions are listed online if you need any further assistant.

How do you fix it to the duvan base?

Answer: The Fairfield is a strutted headboard and so using the struts can be fixed onto the divan base with the fixing crews provided with the purchase of the base.

The bolts that you sent with my headboard are too short to fit, what size do I need to get? The headboard is to go on divan small double bed.

Answer: We would recommend you contact the retailer from which the divan was purchased as they would have the bolts which are specific to the base.
