I was very pleased with the appearance of the headboard - it was just what I had looked for however, when it came time to assemble it, we found that the lower hole on one of the legs was totally missing, and one other hold was not drilled all the way through. Fortunately, my husband was able to drill both holes in order to put the headboard together and attach it to my bed frame. so- a bit more quality inspection might be called for!
