I was looking forward to receiving the new headboard. I had researched headboards for weeks, finally making the decision to purchase this one. I feel the sample pictures lead you to believe it is a much better quality than it actually is. Its all particle board with a shiny black thin laminate adhered to it. The shipping box was not damaged during delivery, yet almost every board was heavily scratched up on the black laminate and parts of laminate peeling off. Very disappointing to say the least. The instructions and building it was very easy. No missing parts. I used a black furniture marker to cover all of the scratches. Not a perfect fix, but better than trying to re/pack the entire headboard, getting it shipped back and then waiting a couple of weeks for another, that is probably going to be scratched up as well.
Please read this review before purchasing.
