After waiting for 7 months for this headboard to come back in stock, it was worth the wait. It looks exactly like the pictures online. Easy to assemble! Did it myself. My headboard isn't mounted to any brackets. For now, it's propped it up against the wall until the COVID 19 situation is handled and I can allow others in my home to help me mount the headboard. 

No damage to the headboard and the shipping was effortless. Wayfair customer service was great.
