This is a beautiful headboard that is made very well.  Our four year old helped put it together so no problems there.  I give it four stars only because  it was so hard to fit to our existing bed rail.  That was frustrating to the point that we almost returned it.  My husband finally got it to stay together though I don't even want to know how.  Now that it's up though, it looks stunning in the bedroom.  I'd still recommend it because who knows - maybe it was just our frame and had nothing to do with the headboard.
