We ordered 2 of these headboards for my sons. They came very well packaged and I was impressed with the surface finish of the item. It assembled easily and is sturdy. It's obviously not an upper echelon item, but it's been great for us, and I wouldn't hesitate recommending it. The only drawback is that the headboard overall is not as tall as we would have liked. The lowest shelf is just below the top of the mattress.
