Quick answer
Three modern headboard options are compared here by their listed size, and the sections below use each product’s own listing data. Yongchuang Upholstered King Headboard Only lists 79″ L × 79″ W × 25″ H; HAOBO Home Upholstered Queen Headboard Only lists 0.01 × 32.89 × 24.8 in (axes not labelled in the listing); MAHANCRIS Headboard Queen Size lists 0.01 × 59.06 × 40.16 in (axes not labelled in the listing). A footprint could not be compared for HAOBO Home Upholstered Queen Headboard Only, MAHANCRIS Headboard Queen Size because the listing gives conflicting, missing or unlabelled depth and width. Specifications come from Amazon listing data checked October 3, 2026; we have not tested these products. Recheck the selected variant and the current price on Amazon before ordering, because titles and specification fields can change.

1. Yongchuang Upholstered King Headboard Only, Modern Linen Head Board Oatmeal — Footprint not comparable
Listed details: dimensions 79″ L × 79″ W × 25″ H; material Linen; color Oatmeal.
The Yongchuang is the only king-size option of the three: the title says upholstered king headboard only, in oatmeal linen. The spec table lists 79 in L x 79 in W x 25 in H, while the first bullet gives 78.3 in W x 24 in H and says it is designed to pair with CK or EK bed frames. The bullets describe a wood frame wrapped in high-density foam and breathable linen, plus two metal legs with height adjustment from 40 in to 56 in. All parts, tools and instructions are said to come in one box. No item weight is stated, and attachment to the frame is not described beyond the legs.
Pros
- The only king-size headboard of the three, at about 78.3 in to 79 in wide per the listing
- Padded: wood frame, high-density foam and linen, in a plain modern oatmeal color
- Two metal legs with a stated height range of 40 in to 56 in
Cons
- Spec table and bullet disagree on size: 79 in x 25 in versus 78.3 in x 24 in
- The spec table labels 79 in as both length and width, which suggests one label is wrong
- No item weight is stated, and the mounting method to the bed frame is not described
Who it is for / who should skip it: Pick it if you have a king bed and want a padded linen panel. Skip it if you have a queen frame or need exact mounting details before ordering.
2. HAOBO Home Upholstered Queen Headboard Only, Modern Linen Panel Oatmeal — Footprint not comparable
Listed details: dimensions 0.01 × 32.89 × 24.8 in (axes not labelled in the listing); item weight 29 pounds; material fabirc; color Oatmeal1.
The HAOBO Home is a queen-size upholstered headboard in oatmeal, with an item weight of 29 pounds and a spec table that lists the material as fabric (spelled fabirc there). Its dimension field reads 0.01 x 32.89 x 24.8 in with the axes not labelled, so the panel width is not clearly stated. The bullets mention high-density foam padding, vertical stitching, and 3 holes on each leg so the same legs fit full and Queen frames, with a height range of 40 in to 56 in. The package list names the headboard, a left and right leg, hardware including an allen wrench, screws and washers, and an instruction manual.
Pros
- Weight is stated, 29 pounds, and the package contents are spelled out
- Legs have 3 holes each to fit full and Queen frames, per the bullets
- Height adjusts from 40 in to 56 in, with vertical stitching on the upholstery
Cons
- The only dimensions given are unlabelled (0.01 x 32.89 x 24.8 in), so panel width is not clearly stated
- Specs list the material only as fabric, with no detail on the cover or frame
- Attaches with screws to the bed frame, so it needs a frame with compatible mounting points
Who it is for / who should skip it: Pick it if you have a full or queen frame and want a padded headboard with clear package contents. Skip it until you have confirmed the width on the current listing.
3. MAHANCRIS Headboard Queen Size, Metal Headboards with Universal Adapters, Adjustable Height, Modern Head Board Queen Size Only for Bedroom, Black — Footprint not comparable
Listed details: dimensions 0.01 × 59.06 × 40.16 in (axes not labelled in the listing); item weight 4.6 kg; material Iron; color Black.
The MAHANCRIS is the only metal headboard here: iron, matte black, with a title that says queen and bullets saying it is available in Twin, Full and Queen. The dimension field reads 0.01 x 59.06 x 40.16 in without axis labels, and the item weight is 4.6 kg. The bullets describe universal metal adapters for a flush fit with most bed frames, 3 height holes and adjustable feet for uneven floors. Setup is described as bolting to the existing frame in minutes with the provided hardware. Because the listing offers several sizes, check that the dimensions you read match the size variant you select.
Pros
- Metal and iron construction, with a weight of 4.6 kg stated
- Universal adapters, 3 height holes and adjustable feet for uneven floors
- Offered in Twin, Full and Queen, so one design covers several bed sizes
Cons
- Dimensions are unlabelled (0.01 x 59.06 x 40.16 in), and it is unclear which size they describe
- No padding or foam is mentioned, only iron, so do not expect a soft surface
- The adapters are described as universal, but compatibility with your own frame is not guaranteed by the listing
Who it is for / who should skip it: Pick it if you want a plain black metal look and a size choice. Skip it if you want a padded surface to lean on.
What to check before buying modern headboard
A modern headboard is a fit problem before it is a style choice. These three do not even share a bed size: the Yongchuang is king, the HAOBO is queen with full-size leg holes, and the MAHANCRIS is queen with twin and full options. Pick the size first.
1. Width against your mattress. The Yongchuang lists 78.3 in in a bullet and 79 in in the spec table. The HAOBO and MAHANCRIS give unlabelled dimension fields (0.01 x 32.89 x 24.8 in and 0.01 x 59.06 x 40.16 in), so the width cannot be read directly. Look for a plain width and height in the product details, and compare it to your mattress.
2. How it attaches. The HAOBO uses legs with 3 holes each and screws to the frame. The MAHANCRIS uses universal metal adapters and bolts. The Yongchuang lists two metal legs, with no further mounting detail. If your frame is a platform or has no mounting holes, check this first.
3. Height and range. The Yongchuang and HAOBO both state a 40 in to 56 in adjustment range. The MAHANCRIS lists 3 height holes and adjustable feet but no range. The tallest end of that range determines how much wall shows above the pillows.
4. Material and comfort. Linen over foam (Yongchuang), fabric over foam (HAOBO) and bare iron (MAHANCRIS) feel different against your back. Only the Yongchuang and HAOBO list foam.
5. Weight. The HAOBO is 29 pounds and the MAHANCRIS 4.6 kg, so the units differ; the Yongchuang lists none.
6. Data quality. Two of the three have unlabelled dimensions. Treat them as unconfirmed.
Decision rule: choose size first, then mounting, then padded versus metal.
Worked example: fit math for these three options
This worked example is our own planning arithmetic from the listed dimensions, not test results. The wall length and walkway width are assumed example values; replace them with your measurements.
Wall example. Assume 96 inches of clear wall.
- Yongchuang Upholstered King Headboard Only: 96 − 79 = 17 inches spare; centred, 8.5 inches on each side before trim, plugs or curtains.
Walkway example. The US Access Board gives 36 inches as the minimum clear width for an accessible route. That figure is a yardstick, not a rule for private homes. To keep 36 inches clear beside each product, the walkway between it and the opposite obstacle must be at least 36 inches plus its depth:
- Yongchuang Upholstered King Headboard Only: 36 + 79 = 115 inches of total path width.
Footprint. Depth × width, converted at 144 square inches per square foot:
- Yongchuang Upholstered King Headboard Only: 79 × 79 = 6241 sq in, or 43.34 sq ft.
Mistakes to avoid
- Buying by title size alone. The listing page for a multi-size item may show a different size from the one you pick. Check the width on the variant you select.
- Trusting an unlabelled dimension. The HAOBO and MAHANCRIS fields both start with 0.01 and carry no axis labels, so neither gives a clearly stated width. Look for a labelled width before you order.
- Ignoring how it mounts. A headboard-only listing relies on your frame. The HAOBO needs screws, the MAHANCRIS needs bolts into adapters, and the Yongchuang does not describe its attachment.
- Assuming metal is soft enough to lean on. The MAHANCRIS is described as iron, and no padding is mentioned. If you read in bed, the Yongchuang and HAOBO are the only ones that list foam.

Frequently asked questions
Do these headboards include a bed frame?
No. The Yongchuang and HAOBO titles say headboard only, and the MAHANCRIS title says queen size only. You need your own bed frame. The MAHANCRIS and HAOBO describe how they bolt or screw to one, while the Yongchuang mentions legs.
Which of these fits a queen bed?
The HAOBO and MAHANCRIS both say queen in their titles. The HAOBO bullets also mention full, and the MAHANCRIS says Twin, Full and Queen are available. The Yongchuang is a king. Because two dimension fields are unlabelled, confirm the width on the listing.
Can I adjust the height?
The Yongchuang and HAOBO bullets both state an adjustment range of 40 in to 56 in. The MAHANCRIS lists 3 height holes and adjustable feet, but no range. How high the headboard sits also depends on your frame and mattress, which the listings do not know.
Is a padded or metal modern headboard better?
It depends on use. The Yongchuang and HAOBO list foam padding, which helps if you sit up in bed. The MAHANCRIS is iron with a matte black finish, and its listing mentions no padding. Metal suits a plain look and flexible sizing; padded suits comfort.
