Great unit! The small headboard is perfect size if you’re not looking for one of the tremendous ones. It’s thick so you don’t feel wood. It feels like good quality. As does the entire frame. I was iffy on getting a metal bed frame, but after assembly ...I’m more than happy. It’s sturdy. It comes with the wood slats which velcro into place. Overall, this is a great quality bed. I love most of all that the headboard is slated back so you can comfortably sit up against it and read or go on your laptop. 1010!
