The headboard itself is gorgeous and just what I was looking for. I would have given it 5 stars. Unfortunately it was packaged very poorly, simply put in the box, no other protection whatsoever. And since I chose a linen ivory color, at least a plastic cover would have been nice. It had a big dirt stain on it as a result, which after a few applications of cleaner on my end, finally came out. Still, I’m very disappointed, shouldn’t have to do that with a brand new purchase.
