Why our sleep experts loved it

We're looking at some of the wider offerings from Dreams today and we're starting with the Luxury Lever Headboard from the Dreams Workshop, a popular brand responsible for many of the mattresses, bed frames and headboards sold exclusively through Dreams retailer. 

Starting with the inner components, the headboard is made from a solid pine frame that shouldn't creak or make unnecessary noises when properly secured. The solid pine is of sufficient grade to ensure suitability and is strong enough to support your head while propping you up.

Past the pine base, you have a layer of padding on the front of the headboard to help offer comfort for your head while it is rested against. The padding is not too thick, nor is it anywhere except the front of the headboard and helps add to the plushness and visual appeal of the headboard.

Finally you have a durable but luxurious fabric available in a multitude of different tones to suite your room. I personally like the dark grey, a popular colour over the last few years but also worth a shout is the lighter ash colour. The fabrics are not what I would consider attention grabbing, instead blending in effortlessly with the rest of your bedroom suite and adding the finishing touch to whatever room design you have.

Reviews for the Luxury Lever Headboard is good, with over 200 reviews at time of writing and an impressive 99% consumer satisfaction. Customers particularly enjoyed the way the headboard suits existing room sets and the slim build that doesn't take up too much room in either depth nor height. Its critics are far fewer but there was a small handful who  couldn't easily fix the headboard to their existing frame creating a degree of frustration which was expressed in review. We would argue the small handful who couldn't join the headboard are in the minority and the vast majority won't have issue. 

Why you can trust WantMattress We spend hours testing (and/or researching) every product or service we review, so you can be sure you’re buying the best. Find out more about how we test.

We were told in store that this didn't fit our sleepmotion 400i bed but as we liked this headboard that much, they said we could fit it to the wall which if you're fairly handy, isn't a problem. Looks great and glad we bought it!

Verified Buyer
Does the colour of the headboard match with the pictures provided online?

Answer: Based on customer feedback, there have been certain instances where the colour of the headboard slightly differed from the online images. For example, one customer noted that the colour 'Mushroom' appeared more grey in person than it did in the store. Other than that, the vast majority of others have been very pleased with the richness and accuracy of the colours. Many customers noted how the colours fully complemented their bedroom dcor. Lastly, the fabric choices of smooth velveteen or boutique weave have been well-received for their quality feel and appearance. - Becky

How comfortable is the Dream Team Lever Headboard when sitting up and reading in bed?

Answer: The headboard has been praised for its comfort, particularly when sitting up to read or watch TV in bed. It's luxuriously padded, which customers have reported makes curling up with a book or unwinding after a long day a thoroughly enjoyable experience. One customer described the larger height as ideal for sitting up, and another said it felt robust and very comfortable while leaning against it.
