I purchased this headboard for a rental property and the price definitely fit the budget. It is a really nice looking headboard but, of course, it's not the most solid or substantial headboard you can get and the price reflects that. Assembly was quite simple but be aware you will need a drill if you want to affix it to your bedframe. Also, don't forget to purchase bolts as those are not included. Overall I'm quite happy with how it looks and we'll see how well it holds up.
