Headrest Option

A headrest option is a new addition to our line. It can go on top of any of our back cushions (although it would probably not give firm head and neck support if on a "puffy" back cushion).

The person shown here is 6'1" tall, and the headrest cushion shown rests on one of our 2"-higher backs (which comes with the optional 33" height). For a comfortable angle of support, and in order for a taller person to sink down far enough for this to work as a good headrest, the complete setup needs to include a soft pillow in the lower back, to create a slight recline; and an ottoman can provide comfortable leg support.

The person shown here, peacefully demonstrating one of the most important uses of a couch or chair with a headrest, is 5'6". This headrest is attached to a 2"-higher back, but it could also provide good head/neck support for a person of this height even if on a standard-height back. Again, a soft lower-back pillow and a footstool are helpful to complete the comfortable setup.

This sofa/chair headrest rests on top of the back cushion, and special anti-slip material on its underside prevents it from shifting backward under pressure. It can be lifted off when desired, leaving no sign that the headrest had been there. A few easily-removed "twist pins" might be needed to supplement the attachment.

If your sofa or chair will be against a wall, you may be satisfied just with a pillow that can serve as a sofa headrest while merely resting against the wall. A pillow with adjustable filling, to provide the right amount of filling to most comfortably support your neck and head, may be desirable for best comfort; and we can make our toss pillows that way on request (no extra charge). The lady shown is 5'3", on a sofa with the standard back height.

The charge for the attached headrest is $100 each, plus $4 per fabric "+" level. To make it high enough for a taller person, you would need to go to the 33" back height, at an additional $2 per inch above the basic price.
