I was so excited about this headboard. It arrived in great condition, but the assembly really disappointed me. Firstly, the headboard was about 1.5 inches wider than my full sized bed frame, making it difficult to assemble onto it. I could only attach one size of the headboard to the bed frame, and it sounds ridiculous, but I zip tied the other side because it didn't line up with the bed frame holes. I couldn't think of any other way to attach that side that didn't require a lot more things. The hardware provided also made it even more difficult to assemble because the screws had paint/wax in order to increase the traction; it was near impossible to manually turn the screws into the bolts. I had to buy new hardware (screws and bolts) altogether to be able to secure the headboard to the frame. It looks great, just like the picture; it was just a lot more work (time and money) than I expected.
