I was looking for a stylish headboard that matched 2 pieces of furniture I had - this would be used in our spare bedroom. This headboard was perfect! It was better than I thought. The value for the product can not get much better. I have shopped many places and none compares.  I found headboards that were twice the price and half the value!  I bought carriage bolts, washers and nuts at local hardware store and installed the headboard in no time. It was great.  Only complaint is the assembly instructions do not specify the laminated front from the raw wooden back - so watch what you are doing and study the diagram.  Be sure you use the correct size screws when it specifies.   :)
