This headboard went in a teen bedroom that she loves.  I also liked it for these reasons. $80 to $100 cheaper than local stores, the quality was great, maybe cheaply made (I don't know) but could not tell it apart from more expensive ones if they were side by side, sturdy when assembled and easy to do so with directions enclosed.  The only thing that I could complain about is I didnt look at The Headboard site first, would have saved alot of my time!!
