The 2nd headboard was a replacement for the 1st that arrived badly broken. The 2nd arrived defective. Poor design, terribly packaged. The top piece of the headboard is attached in a manner that it is easily broken during shipment. There are no supports on the top piece. If you have an active child(ren) expect a ( "not me!") when you discover a broken headbosrd. Properly built and with appropriate hardware there would be no issue.
