Head board is not as tall as it appears.Packing is poor and wood parts have some deep scratches.They are on the bottom inside of the legs so I won't hassle a return in my case.Also where the metal pieces of the headboard are joined the welds have sharp edges that would shred a pillow case and I am currently working on filing them down.(yes this does remove the color from the metal)The bed is easy to put together and arrived on time but you get what you pay for and this bed is inexpensive because it is not well finished.I'm using it in a guest room.
