The headboard is a great bang for the buck headboard... just mounted it to the bed frame and it is solid. The only reason I didn't give this a 5 star is because the light switches (by the way there are two of them per each light.). The light switches can be difficult to operate with how close the construction is to the light placement. Otherwise a great buy and it only took about an hour to and hour and a half to put it together. Look a lot more expensive than it's original cost.
