Is it uncomfortable to sit in bed and read with the metal bars behind you on this headboard? Thank you.

Honestly I purchased this as a gift for someone. Im very sorry I cant answer your question. Maybe someone else can help.

I attached my lamp to the headboard and read at night. The lamp takes ten minutes to get to the point you can not touch it. I like mine.

If your frame is made of thick plastic, it is not comfortable at all. I have no clue what it feels like with a metal frame.

No, actually it is not comfortable at all. I do a lot of writing drawing and diagramming and my writing fingers started getting a burn. Also I hold pencils closer to the bottom and its almost impossible to do with this pencil. The heaviness of it is great, but its cumbersome for me to use without a rubber cover or something

Yes. I have it on my daughter's bed but there is plenty of room for both of us to lean against it when I read to her.

I have used the bedrest on my sofa and I liked the extra back support while reading. Helps prevent slumping.

Absolutely. It is very bright, but doesn't blind you with a glare off your pages. A plus side is the light is very directional so you can read while not disturbing someone else sleeping with light on there side.

My guess is, probably yes it would be uncomfortable, unless you have a very fluffy pillow or you put your arm under your head to create a "nook" for the speaker. They are flat, but still hard, even inside the fleece. When I sleep on my side I usually drape the band so that one speaker is sitting on my upward-facing ear, OR I slide one speaker inside the fleece to somewhere that isn't pressing on me.

I do not have a bed headboard. When I want to sit up and support my back while working on the computer, I put it against the wall. If I take a nap in the afternoon, I use it directly on the bed to lay at a 45 degree angle to prevent acid reflex. At night, I turn it over and use it to elevate my feet as I sleep. If you have a favorite chair but sitting on it presses on the back of your knees, this can move you forward with support. These are just a few of the ways I use it, and never a headboard.

I did not install the front curved bars for easier access to my books, and I still haven't had any issues with it about 80% full with medium to large books. I've been using it for about six months now. If it would be helpful I could take a picture of my shelf, so you could get a better feel for the load.

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!!

Good question, if you find out let me know. I just put a small reader's digest in front so it won't bother us in the bedroom.

When the sofa is upright in the "sofa" position it feels like a sofa. When it's in the "bed" position the crease or kink is not that noticeable when laying down. It's pretty comfortable though not as cushy as a read bed. But for sleepovers or the occasional lounging around, it's great. I have no complaints about the comfort and neither have any of my "sleepovers".

The headboard will fit snugly against your frame, but it's a very lightweight piece, so it will flex an inch or two. You can't sit up in bed and lean against it without causing it to rub against the wall. It's more decorative than functional.

It's noisy. high pitch sound, but not unbearable. It's noticeable for sure, so try to place it far away from where you'll be sitting.

I purchased this headboard for my queen size bed. We have a regular metal frame with a boxspring and pillowtop mattress and it looks fine. The only problem we have with the headboard is that since it is mounted to our metal frame, there is a lot of movement if the bed is not up against the wall. We have the bed in front of our window which is fine--I just cannot sit up in my bed, with a pillow behind my back and read a book!

Yes, it is very comfortable. It is easily adjustable. I have a small head and it works great for me while reading in bed and not disturbing my husband.
