Hello Ikea fans.
I've been thinking about buying the ikea brimnes headboard together with the bed. The long hours of building it don't conserm me as much as the part about attaching the headboard to the wall in a brand new apartment.
I've seen a bunch of threads where people have used it like this with no problems and a bunch of threads of people saying that it might be dangerous so I wanted to ask about some long term personal experience there? Is there anything I should really be worry about if I decide not to pin it to the wall?
I like the look of the Brimnes bed however the headboard adds additional length to the bed that would make it difficult to pass by (as I live in a small condo). Do any other Ikea (or other) headboards fit? Are there any easy hacks possibly?
Side note: What is the recommended mattress height? I had purchased my mattress before this one which is pretty tall and when I pair it with the Brimnes bed I have to jump up. Pretty annoying. I'll have to either get rid of the bed or mattress.
