It came quickly and was exactly as it was in the picture. The headboard was a little scratched at one place because of the way it was packaged, but it's not super noticeable and I just put that piece at the bottom of the headboard so it can't be seen. Other than that the instructions were easy to understand and the assembly was fast and easy. There is a little space around my box spring mattress, but it's not big enough to cause me any problems. All in all, I was pretty satisfied with my experience and product.
