As stated in a lot of the reviews, the headboard does not look as tall in person when the mattress is added onto the bed. But the bed still does look really nice. It was extremely easy to put together, and the directions were pretty good an easy to follow. Although, I suggest that the nails be laid out according to size before starting because some of them are almost the same size so it is easy to get them confused. The problem we had was that the packaging was really horrible, which caused one of the wooden legs of the bed to be scratched up pretty badly. otherwise, we're pretty happy with the purchase.

Pros: Good value, easy to put together, nice looking
Cons: Does not exactly match picture, horrible packaging
