Only marking off a star due to inadequate instructions making assembly tricky. Wood quality and headboard are actually nice. The headboard fabric (I got beige) has a tweed look to it but is actually smooth to the touch. There are some gaps between the mattress and the bed frame where you see the unfinished wood slats underneath, but they are covered by the comforter or blocked by nightstands, so it's not a big deal. Actual physical assembly isn't difficult (I'm 5'4" woman and did it by myself), it's just that nothing is labeled so it takes some time to identify pieces. Had I not swapped two important pieces at the very beginning, I think it would have taken me around 3-4 hrs to put together, instead I had to disassemble and start over again, so it took 5-6 hrs.
