This headboard is a beautiful design, and has a great looking finish, and overall I would recommend. However, I found the screws that were supplied with it to be very cheap, prone to stripping without much effort. I replaced them with some better quality screws. I also added several additional screws when I was putting it together to make it sturdier - this necessitated taking out the power tools to drill, which I hadn't planned on. Finally, after installing it on the metal bed frame (my own, not part of this furniture set), I wish it was a bit sturdier. It flops around a bit if you are propped up in bed leaning your head against it. That may be true of all headboards attached to a metal bed frame, I'm not sure. But it looks VERY nice, and overall is a good value for the price.
