I love it. It was very easy to put together. I didn't have any problems with the shipping it was fast and everything came in perfect condition. I will say if you have a low mattress then you will probably have a gap. I have tall mattress and it was just right. you can use it with a box or with a bed frame I used a bed frame and it was the perfect height. The only thing I would have liked was if the height of the actual headboard was a bit taller because if you have puffy pillows like I do the headboard gets covered a little bit.
