Our take on the Baxton Studio Dexter Dark Gray and Brown Finished Wood King Size Headboard

The Dexter is a king-size upholstered headboard from Baxton Studio, built from rubberwood and engineered wood with a walnut brown finish. Its channel-tufted face is padded with foam under smooth polyester fabric, giving a soft surface to lean against. Six pre-drilled holes in the legs set 2.50 inches apart give five mounting heights, so it can sit low behind a thick mattress or higher for reading. Against plain wood or metal headboards it offers more back comfort and a taller profile, but it ships flat and needs assembly.
