Tests & Verdict

Here we collect tests, guides and product reviews so that you can create a picture of what others think about the product. This analysis and review is based on my experience and 12+ years of industry insight.

Well priced headboard in neutral colours will ensure maximum compatibility in any room set.

Reviews are almost entirely positive with over 600 happy customers to date and a market leading 99% consumer satisfaction.

Personally, the design is somewhat bland sinking into the design of any bedroom with which it is placed. This is great for those not looking to make a statement with their bed frame but may prove unsuitable for those looking for a showpiece. 

Long lead time may put off those looking for faster delivery.

Once I ordered my bed, I tried to pay over the phone. Was told I had to go back into the store to pay. My delivery date was delayed due to the store being closed during opening hours. The material colour was changed due to a supplier issue - this was late notice and my wife and I had to accept the new colour or no bed over Christmas. The colour is ok, but we would still prefer the original colour we chose - at no point have we been offered an opportunity to swap the bed out if we are unhappy. The design of the product is fantastic - its easy to open and close the bed and it feels like a quality product. The service has been the let down us both pre and post sale. I would recommend the product, but not the store I used unless there is a satisfactory follow up to our purchase.

I bought this a month ago and it's the best sleep I hage ever had. The mattress was expensive (you get what you pay for I suppose). My back was causing me major problems with posture and alignment problems and i put my trust in dreams to help and they did just that. She went over every kind, type, size etc and helped me so much and my back has made a big difference to my physio. The divan base is really sturdy and gorgeous colour and matching headboard. The kids wooden bed frames are solid wood and they're mattresses are super comfy as they said. I have been getting such a good sleep now and I am so grateful for the intrest free loan as well. Being single mum to three kids can be costly and knowing its intrest free and paying this up means I can relax more.

Love my new bed. The mattress is designed for joint pain relief and I really feel this helps me get a better nights sleep and prevents me from waking up in the night feeling sore and achy. The headboard is a perfect height for me, being someone who is occasionally bedbound, having a high, sturdy but soft to lean on headboard was a must. The bedframe is brilliant, two drawers with plenty of space, fairly easy to slide when changing bed cover but not too much so it stays solidly in place. Creak free and comfortable! A great buy and a great night's sleep.

I bought this bed coming up to two months ago. Its very modern looking, but also makes the room look cosy and comfy. I love the colour of it and really suits the bedroom scheme. There was a wide range a colours and we went with the dark grey. We didnt have a big budget to spend but was looking for an ottoman. I love the look of it and would definitely recommend an ottoman for those needing more storage room in their bedroom. We went for King in the end as there wasnt much price difference between queen and king and I have no regrets!

Well what else do you do when theres a three month lockdown. Great sleep at nights, great lie ins all morning and beautiful afternoon naps. I bought one from Dreams Enfield/Chingford and was assisted by Debra. She was fantastic and gave me honest advice. My wife and I purchased a headboard, Bed with storage lift and mattress. 10 out of 10 so much that my wife returned to Debra and purchased another two sets. Quality in product and you certainly get value for money. I shall definitely buy another shortly and recommend Dreams highly.

Finally bought a new bed and could not be happier!! Great size, super comfy mattress and the drawers in the divan are perfect size - bigger than expected in fact. Great delivery service!! Informed of delivery slot the day before delivery and we even had a phone call early on the day to confirm everything. We paid the extra for the bed to be put together - highly recommend this. Such a small cost which was super convenient, and they took all the packaging away. Great all around service from Dreams - thank you!

it's of quite a large size and was difficult to get upstairs. beware of buying if needing to maneuver in a tight space. good quality. solid headboard. nice colour. soft and comfy to put head against. only came with two screws to attach to the bed when it should have four. did ask dreams customer service to send more but they didn't. i had had to contact them because they only delivered half the castors for the bed, when the bed was delivered. disappointing after sales service.

It was my first purchase with Dreams and I must say that I was surprised since the follow-up after the purchase, always receiving emails and messages with updates on the day of delivery and of course due to covid-19 they were unable to assemble the bed as originally requested. The delivery was made on the scheduled day and they called a few minutes earlier to say they were arriving. The bed set up I did by myself very easy to assemble and very good quality.

I was looking for a firm memory foam mattress but was recommended the Hyde & Sleep lemon mattress which is extra firm. I questioned this and was told this mattress is actually firm. I was a bit concerned when it arrived as it felt very firm. However it was pointed out to me that they take up to a month to soften. Well, after about 3 weeks I can honestly say it feels wonderful. I am getting a fantastic nights sleep and am really pleased I bought it.

This is a very nice headboard, it looks good and doesn't wobble backwards and forwards like some do. The only thing I would like it to do is to fit a little higher so it would be above the skirting board. If it did this it would fit closer to the wall and I would be able to access our built-in shelves at the side of the bed, but unfortunately it only has one fitting position. Apart from that it's very nice and we're pleased with it.

Lovely headboard, but I've had to mark it down a star for the fixings. They really are a bit naff. They barely get through to the base and when they do are a real pain to tighten. One of them actually doesn't tighten properly, instead just keep spinning. Also, where the headboard doesn't have wheels but touches the floor, if you want to move your bed you risk breaking the fixings as it bends as you move. 3.5 stars overall!

Had this a few weeks now, very solid piece of furniture and comfortable to use and it looks great. Definitely needs 4 screws to hold it in place and note that they come with the bed, not the headboard, so if like me you're buying the headboard a few months after the bed, make sure you've got the screws. Also note that this headboard is flush to the sides of the bed, it isn't one of those that overhangs the sides.

I have had delivery of my new headboard today. Luxury whitworth and luxury divan base. I am having trouble attaching the headboard to the divan. I have 2 bolts in but no obvious opening on headboard to slot in only on the back. Do I need to cut into the m

Answer: I am sorry about this. If you feel along the top end of the base you should feel the screw holes underneath the fabric, you can pierce this with the headboard bolts/screw driver. If you require further assistance you can call the customer service team who will be able to talk you through this.

Does the headboard come with fixing bolts and what is the measurement between the fixing locations?

Answer: The fixings do not come with the headboard, they should be with your divan base as they need to be compatible with the holes in the divan.The distance between the struts on Double is 101cm and on a King is 116cm.

I have placed two single 3' Dreams divans together to make a 6' superking. Will the divan bolt holes align with a floor standing superking headboard. The measurement between the two outer bolt holes on the singles is 5'. Thanks.

Answer: The holes will align however please note that a Super King mattress will not fit on two Single Divans pushed together because singles have a length of 190cm and Super Kings have a length of 200cm.

can you tell me how high the headboard fits I am trying to work out the height above the bed so it will fit slopping walls

Answer: This depends on how high you attach the headboard to your divan. If you attach it at the highest point in the strut so it is touching the floor, the top of the headboard will be 131cm off the ground.

If it goes to the floor, does it not drag on carpet when bed is moved?

Answer: This would depend on how high or low you position the headboard on your base. If you are wanting to move the divan base you should detach the headboard first to prevent any damage.

Hi, can this bed frame be used with the yardley upholstered ottoman bed frame, size single?

Answer: The Yardley bedframe already includes a headboard as part of its main structure. Unfortunately you would not be able to change this to a different headboard.
