Best headboards to upgrade your bedroom this spring

Looking to seriously upgrade the design of your bedroom this spring? Then consider investing in a new headboard. Compared to buying an entire bed frame, headboards are generally more affordable. There are many great options to choose from, and they can work with a variety of design aesthetics, including traditional, coastal, farmhouse and industrial.

Top headboards in this article:

Serena and Lily Harbor Cane headboard, $1,398 and up

Three Posts Kowalczyk Metal Slat Headboard, $235 and up

Lucid mid-rise tufted headboard, $68 and up (reduced from $80)

There’s a headboard for just about every budget. Depending on brand, material type, size and style, you can spend less than $100 on a headboard, or perhaps a few thousand dollars. Most headboards fit seamlessly into the universal headboard brackets of a standard bed frame, so if you already have a bed frame you like, you probably won’t need to buy a new one. 

We rounded up some of our favorite headboards from top brands, including Serena and Lily, Pottery Barn, Casper and Lulu and Georgia, along with some of the top-rated headboards on Amazon.
