Is there any way I could use a bed sheet on this bed without the headrest getting in the way?

I don't know the answer to that. I bought the beds with my young 7&9 grandchildren in mind and just got sleeping bags for them to use as blankets.

I used a sheet but could only tuck the sheet slightly under the head rest. I have considered cutting open the head rest to reposition it and sewing it back on but have not done so yet. That is my best suggestion. Hope will work out for you.

The headrest is attached but a twin sheet will go over it. It is more narrow than a twin bed so if you are over 5 1/2 feet tall or are wide, this isn't a great product for you. We got it for our younger son who is about 4"8' and 95 lbs.

It would be tough to use a fitted sheet because the headrest sits up higher than the rest of the mattress. I use a full-size flat sheet and just tuck it underneath to get it to stay - this works fine. It is a very good bed for the money, I would recommend this one.

There is a removable pad but we're trying to find out if sheets are sold for this. No luck yet ...

Wood glue would definitely help. I used it myself with the parts in the headboard. I've had the bed for almost 8 months now, and it's still very secure and doesn't shift.

you can, but you need to get those things that fasten on to help them stay on. Deep pocket ones really aren't deep enough either. I just let mine slide off every now and then. they'll stay on unless I just toss and turn much. this is the most comfortable bed I have ever had and it's worth the hassle of not finding good sheets that fit.

Yes you can. It has a somewhat non slip surface. If your mother tosses and turns it may get bunched. It is large enough that it should be fine. My mother uses her OVER the fitted sheet. One less thing to wash.

you can't put it around the head rest so what you have to do is ..Lift the headrest up.. you know how you are able to lift the headrest up and wrap it between the metals and there you go..

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.

I use a mattress and box spring. Without both the gap between the headboard and mattresses might be to large.

Yes. There would be a gap between the headboard and the mattress because of the height of the headboard if you didn't use a box spring with it.

I used a box spring for this. If you choose not to use a box spring, you would need to get something to support the mattress. Also, in my opinion, the headboard/footboard would look too high because the mattress would be so low. Hope this helps!

Is there head rest? There needs to be something to hook it around. Otherwise, I guess you could get Velcro tape and stick it to your seat.

Yes. I suppose you could only use a mattress but there would be a sizeable gap between the headboard and the top of the mattress.

I was going to suggest doing the same thing as Candyce mentioned (+1), i.e. they have a specific side, you can turn the bed around and "attach" the headboard either way.I didn't attach the headboard. I put felt pads to avoid scratching the wall, but the headboard, which can standup by itself, is squeezed between the wall and the bed frame.

You don't have to but might want to. We use our regular king sheets and so long as you don't have the two sides in too different of positions then you're fine.

The bed is hard. Not extremely firm, there is some give. I think you can only use one side.

Yes. You can use this bed rail from either side of the bed. There are nylon straps that attach to the bed rail and mattress for a tight fit. It also doesn't get in the way of the sheets which is nice as well.

You can use bedding and mattress pads. They probably mean not to cover the underside of the mattress where the pad goes.
