Overview
DormCo built this tufted velvet headboard specifically for Twin and Twin XL dorm beds, wedging between mattress and frame on a wood and foam core with adjustable legs and built-in outlets.
This headboard is sized specifically for Twin and Twin XL dorm bed widths, so it will not fit full, queen or king frames. It wedges between the mattress and frame rather than mounting to a wall or headboard bracket, with included legs adding floor support instead of relying on wall anchors. DormCo also builds in two 3-prong outlets plus a USB-A and a USB-C port, useful in a dorm room with limited outlet access near the bed.
- Sized for Twin and Twin XL beds only
- 40.15W x 32H x 3.75D inches
- 2 3-prong outlets, 1 USB-A, 1 USB-C port
- White tufted velvet finish with legs
Who it's for
Made for college students setting up a Twin or Twin XL dorm bed who want a padded headboard look without wall mounting hardware. Not a fit for anyone with a full, queen or king bed, since the dimensions are specific to Twin widths.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- No tools needed for setup
- Fits directly between mattress and frame
- Includes 2 outlets plus USB-A and USB-C ports
- Padded velvet cover over a wood and foam frame
- Only fits Twin and Twin XL beds
- Relies on wedging in place rather than wall mounting
Performance notes
At 40.15 inches wide by 32 inches tall by 3.75 inches deep, the headboard wedges into the gap between mattress and bed frame to stay upright, with separate legs, 60 inches by 2.9 inches by 0.78 inches, attaching to the back for added support. No tools are needed since the legs attach directly to the headboard panel. A wood and foam core sits under the tufted velvet plush cover.
