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.

Daughter is tall... how many inches do you have from the mattress to the top of the crib? we are looking for a low lying crib, this might be a good option

yes that is what I did to solve my problem, I did not have enoughspace to use a headboard, what I did was wedge the pillow pushing it down, but don't expect it to look like a headboard.

Personally, I think that combination will be too high. We use the mattress only.I don't know about the headboard because I installed my own.

im a little confused by your question. we used a pillow top crib mattress which is pretty thick. once the bed is constructed the mattress sits on the floor basically. the head board is a little over a foot and a half tall while the foot of the bed is about 6-8 inches tall. If side walls are what you are concerned with for rolling off and falling out, the sides work as a bumper to prevent that. they range from aprx 8" to about 10-12" in the high points but as I stated in my review, purchase pool noodles for the top edges. slice down the center and slip over the edges.

yes. The headboard legs rest on the floor after its attached to the bed. The tallest part of the headboard from the bed to the top of headboard is about 2 feet. The headboard is more beautiful in person than the picture shows.

No. I originally purchased a regular sized box spring, which made the actual mattress/box spring so high that it took away much of the headboard. I am currently using a half-height box spring, though I don't believe the bed requires one.

We have a memory foam sleep number and use it and the box spring. I believe it would fit fine! It is made to not need a box spring, which we originally tried, but we didn't like being so close to the ground. (I know this is the latest look though!) So, be aware when you do put the box spring, it makes the headboard seem a bit smaller in size. We still love it and have never found anything that can touch the price!! It's a great color.

I'm not sure I understand the question. Are you asking about the height of the arch? I'm pretty sure I don't know the answer to your question, but if it is as to arch height, then I would like to know the answer as well, since I look for as firm and high an arch as I can find.

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.

I have a box spring and about a 12 inch mattress. These end about 4 inches below the first shelf. My only suggestion is to take a black marker after assembly to the back 1/8 inch edges so it blends in. Overall, I love this headboard for the storage No end tables needed!

The top rails sit about 14 inches above the frame, so you need to measure the height of your daughter's pillow top mattress then you can better decide. Hope this helps. I found these measurements at the DHP web site for this bed.

Hi Kathleen: I purchased this same headboard last year. At its tallest point, it measures 47 inches. Hope this helps! Good luck! Deidre

The instructions say that a box spring is not needed. I put mine on, and the mattress (I have a pillow top) is definitely higher than the footboard. The round finial posts are a few inches below the mattress. You can still see the headboard, but only a foot or so. I personally think it looks fine, just depends on your own preference.

I only ordered a headboard and it was only $100 with no shipping or handling charges. Order what you want from the company and question them. I like my headboard, except with our king size mattress (which is 18" deep) there is a gap under the rail and pillows will go in it. I ordered a king size mattress wedge to go with mine and no longer have any problem with this.

Will not be a problem. The headboard sticks up about a foot above the mattress. My 2 year old grand baby does just fine in it and she is a major squirmy butt when she sleeps. Lol

This arch is not very high. I actually use it now when I dribe and it helps keep my poster better. I'd suggest and half dome therapy ball.
