La Fête Wedge Bolster Headboard and Backrest for Crib and Cot Daybeds, Lean

The Lean is a triangular wedge bolster, 24 in wide, 22 in deep and 19 in tall, that turns a flat daybed into a lounger with a back. Sit two together at the head of a Crib and you have a headboard; set them at opposite ends and two people can face each other for conversation. It weighs 8 lb, wipes clean and comes in the same vinyl colors as the pads, so a bed can be reconfigured in minutes.

Where to use it

• Headboard at one end of a Crib daybed in a cabana or poolside
• Opposing back supports for a Crib set up as a conversation lounge
• Back support on a Cot twin daybed in a small terrace
• Hotel and club lounges that need quick, wipe-clean back support
• Sunrooms and covered patios, since the brand designs the line for indoor and outdoor use

Planning and installation notes

• It is an add-on. Order the Crib or Cot separately.
• The brand's photos show two Lean wedges on one Crib, side by side as a headboard or one at each end. Order the quantity your layout needs.
• At 8 lb it is easy to move or remove when you want a flat bed.
• Match the vinyl to the bed for a unified look, or contrast the wedge for definition.
• Add pillows and throws on the sloped face for a softer lean.
• The brand's sheet shows the wedge sitting on the bed; it does not publish a fixing method, so confirm placement for windy rooftops.

Who it is not for

• Buyers who want a bolster with a stand-alone seat; it needs a bed or pad underneath
• Anyone looking for armrests; use the Roll or B-Roll for those
• Projects that need a published weight capacity, warranty term or lead time, which are not published

Care

Wipe with mild dish soap and warm water, then rinse with clear water. For a stubborn mark, use a soft brush with a gentle non-abrasive cleanser and light pressure, because abrasive products can dull the vinyl's protective finish. The brand also sells its own vinyl cleaner and conditioning cream, and a damaged or outdated cover can be replaced.
