I would imagine it's a piece of shit. No storage underneath, the leather is going to rip/get filthy before a year is up, you shouldn't have leather headboards anyway. Go to a thrift shop, they sometimes have decent queen bed frames for 150 or so, even brass ones for a little more. If you have to get a new frame don't get any upholstery or leather. Buy a simple headboard/footboard wood or metal frame and if it is high enough to allow storage beneath that's even better.

I see corrected grain leather. It's like the Kenneth Cole of beds.

how do you know it's corrected grain headboard?

do leather headboards really get all torn up that quickly?

My bed has a leather headboard, and yes, the ladies seem to dig it! As far as the leather getting ripped and filthy, i guess that depends on how you live and care for your possessions. I've had my bed for almost 7 years, and it looks as good as new, beacause I am a clean person and take care of my stuff, i wouldnt worry about it much, or the storage factor.

its almost the same, but like i said, i purchased it almost 7 years ago. Ill see if can find it online. I quit storing crap under my bed when I was a kid. And as far as the leather, i condition it like once a month. I thought that guys comment was weird. Doesnt he see how we take care of our leather shoes, why not everything else???

That's what i was figuring. I have enough Saphir renovateur for a couple years to make the bed last.

Why did someone think it was corrected grain?

Anyone have any other input or suggestions?

I think they were giving you a hard time for posting a bed under the mens closing thread!
