Panel Bedroom Sets
Plain headboards and footboards with little pizzazz are no longer the standard for panel beds. Their varied designs add a touch of class to this classic in beds and bedroom sets..
What you need to know:
- No bedposts, though reduced-size posts are used with some styles of panel beds
- Headboard and usually a short footboard or no footboard
- Headboards can be elaborate (with design elements) or very basic (unadorned panels and straight-cut lines)
- Solid woods and select hardwoods are the best quality in panel beds
- Rich or natural finishes are popular
- Bedroom furniture (nightstands, dressers, armoires and mirrors) feature same styles and finishes as panel beds
The beauty of panel bed sets is in the variety of styles, universal appeal to children, teens and adults, and adaptability. If, in the future, a new bed or bedroom set is bought to replace a panel bed set, the latter is usually quite suitable – and welcome – in a guest bedroom.
