Does anyone know how tall to the top of the arch? Also wondering if most mattress come up to the base of the headboard so pillows do not fall in.

About four feet. I have queen pillows and they definitely don't fall through. There is a bit of space though...2 inches.

Sorry, I purchased the queen size headboard so I don't think the question applies to me. I will say though that it is a beautiful headboard. Good luck.

Well I must say the bed does not come close to touching the ceiling which I was elated, listening to some reviews glad I purchased this bed, the highest point of the bed is beautiful not too tall. You can't go wrong love love love my bed. Hope this help with your decision you will be satisfied.

Right at 25 inches, using a bed/frame with a pop up trundle...no box springs, just a mattress. My daughter doesn't prop her pillows up against the shelf; so she doesn't have any problems with it. I did not bolt the headboard to the bed frame because the holes don't line up, so I could jack it up some if needed. She puts stuffed animals, nail polish, IPod dock, fan, etc. on her shelves and hasn't had any problems at all. Hope this helps.

It will be tall, our mattress was 6 inches thick and we almost had to jump up onto the bed. We are both 5'6/5'7. It was actually an uncomfortable height and we did not have a box springs.

I was concerned about the height as well. I just measured mine...just under 9.5" from top of counter to top of arch.

I tried it with my queen regular height split box spring, i found it was to tall off the ground and it covers to much of the headboard. A low profile headboard would be better or a mattress atleast 10 inches high/pillow type works the best:-) just bought a new 14 pillowtop today. Looks great

23" from floor to top of platform; add a typical mattress (10' - 12") and you may have to use a small foot stool to get in to the bed - I do. Bed is beautiful, nicely made. I looked all over the internet for months before purchase, and don't believe it is available without the headboard.

I tried to use a pillow top and it was way high. I returned the bed I bought. I really disliked it. I had to "climb" up to get into bed or just sit on it.

My headboard is queensize but I think the height would be the same. 26.5 inches from floor to bottom of the headboard. I hope this helps. This is a nice piece of furniture.

The distance is 24 inches from bottom of headboard leg to bottom of headboard. I have the king size. My husband managed to screw it into bed frame so that it's about 4 inches off the ground, as it looks better that way on my bed. (done that way, it's 28 inches floor to bottom of headboard) I have box spring, mattress, and fluffy feather mattress topper. I should add that it's a beautiful, expensive looking headboard. Everyone that's seen the bedroom comments on it.

Can you adjust the headboard to make it not so high? I'm looking for a shorter headboard because The bed is in front of a window and I don't want to block it too much. Just want the headboard to show a little above the propped pillows. Thanks!!

The headboard can be adjusted up or down when attaching to frame, so it can vary. My daughter has the bottom of the headboard at the top of her mattress. Height from floor to top of headboard at center is 53 inches - legs are at least an inch off the ground.

The bed was for my son in college. He has no headboard so we didn't attach one. Sorry, I can't be of any help. The last I heard though, he does find the bed to be very comfortable.

whoever answered the headboard is 2 feet tall and touches the ground is mistaken. It might be 2 feet tall before you assemble the two pieces but that is irrelevant. Also it would be possible to have the headboard touch the ground when installed but when it's bolted to a standard bed frame it does not touch, you would have to have a bit of a one-off bed for him to do that or drill new holes

I have the king but it is probably the same. It is 8 inches to the bottom of the log and 11 inches to the top. I use a low profile box spring. This bed is easy to put together and an awesome looking bed.
