    My bed didnt have a headboard. Nothing wrong with that.

    I will say its kinda nice to have but plenty of beds dont have it. I’m sure some people see it as odd or cheap but who cares what they think? Its my bed. And a headboard can be added to most frames. Hell i used 2 ikea tables mashed together as headboard for a while.

      Yea I grew up without a headboard and don’t really notice it, but I can see how it might make the room look empty.

      Personally I think

      Good headboard > no headboard > bad headboard

      I’d rather not have one that’s loose/shaking/damaging the wall

        You can buy ones that just stick to the wall. Honestly, I don’t want my head rubbing against the wall and leaving grease marks while I sleep, or fingerprints. You might not notice them but you definitely will once you move the bed.

          Some of them shake and rattle whenever you move little, or how you can’t push against them without it damaging the wall

          I’d assume cheaper ones aren’t that great, but I don’t have specific buying advice

      I’m pretty sure there are also just headboards one can buy as a separate thing so if one finds a need for it, grab it later.

      Personally the only thing I really like about headboards is the ones that have a reading light and/or a bit of storage built in.

      That’s something only a headboardless bed owner could say… pathetic

      Jk, totally true especially the part with do not care so much about what other people think
