Why our sleep experts loved it
The pursuit of a perfect night's sleep is a continuous journey for many of us. The ensemble of bedroom essentials and accessories play a pivotal role in this quest, taking the centrestage however, is one particular bedroom essential - the headboard. A headboard isn't just a decorative focal point of your sleeping sanctuary; It is an integral part of your overall bedtime comfort. One such eminent headboard in the market that caught our attention recently has been the Dream Team Levisham Headboard. With its deep buttoned design, chrome stud border, assortment of texture and colour choices wrapped up in the promise of exceptional comfort, we were intrigued and ready to put this carefully handcrafted British piece to the test.
How we tested
Our testing procedure for the Levisham headboard was comprehensive and meticulous. We began by conducting a thorough visual inspection, visually assessing the quality and craftsmanship. We then proceeded to physically test the headboard for comfort, comparing it across different testing scenarios including reading in bed, general lounging, and a full night's sleep. Furthermore, through careful observation, we tested the ease of attachment to the divan base.
Design and features
The Levisham headboard from Dream Team is no ordinary headboard. Its deep buttoned design gives off an air of classic sophistication, while the chrome stud border offers a chic modern edge. Available in a generous choice of smooth velveteen or boutique weave fabric, the headboard comes in an array of eight rich and luxurious colours. This lets customers choose the perfect variant that would seamlessly blend with their existing bed and room décor. Furthermore, the full height design ensures durability and easy attachment to customers' chosen divan base. The sheer versatility of the design to suit varying aesthetics and its luxurious padding for exceptional comfort creates a unique selling point for this headboard.
Construction
Dream Team takes pride in the fact that the Levisham headboard is handmade at the Dreams Bed Factory in the UK, implying a particular emphasis on quality and craftsmanship. The choice of material and its construction exhibits the brand's attention to detail. From the selection of either smooth velveteen or boutique weave fabric, the inclusion of luxurious padding for comfort to the quality chrome studding, every aspect of the headboard construction speaks volumes about the careful thought and skill that has gone into the making of this headboard.
Suitability
As I pondered over the design and aesthetic appeal of the Levisham headboard, it became evident that even though it is flexible enough to complement a variety of room decors, it might not be the universal fit for all room designs. Particularly, its uniquely modern design with a touch of classic may not align with extremely minimal or highly traditional interiors. In terms of comfort, however, the deep buttoning and exceptional padding is likely to add a whole new level of comfort while resting against it, potentially making it a great addition to most bedrooms.
What customers thought
As the Levisham headboard is designed to cater to a broad customer base with diverse preferences, it was only fitting to incorporate feedback from the customers themselves. The reviews were generally positive, with many customers expressing their appreciation for its unique design elements. They seemed especially captivated by the chrome stud detailing and the deep-buttoned design. An added plus that numerous reviews highlighted was the added comfort the deep padding provided while reading or lounging. With some customers, this headboard even managed to change their preconceived notions about headboards, marvelling at how it could add sparkle to a room with its modern flair.
The verdict
After careful analysis and testing of the Dream Team's Levisham headboard, the conclusion is clear. The headboard certainly succeeds in balancing comfort with design. The intricate detailing of deep buttons and chrome stud border along with diverse colour and fabric options make it a potential showstopper in a range of bedroom decors. Despite my personal reservations about its suitability for every room design, the overall consensus is that the headboard does indeed cater for a diverse audience. Its quality construction, promising durability and added comfort, backed by an impressive one-year guarantee, make it a tempting offer for any seeking to enhance their sleeping experience. It's safe to say that it may not be a one-size-fits-all product, but it certainly is a well-crafted piece of furniture, designed with care and built to please.
