Great quality and design for the value The headboard had a few dirty spots, luckily it came off easily when I spot cleaned it with water and gentle soap. The instructions manual was missing pages 3-4, so I had to guess the steps between the beginning and final steps. I have never assembled furniture without instructions before so I had to guess where the screws went and which steps to do next, some might be obvious based on the number of screws or length of the screws provided. I ended up not using all the washers but I screwed everything very tightly and it seems to be pretty solid.
It took about 2-3 hours to assemble by myself but it would be better to have at least two people so one person can hold the other end while screwing parts together in the beginning. The last page of the instructions says that you are supposed to screw the slats into the bed bed frame but the are no pre-drilled holes, so you would have to line up the slats how you want it and drill them yourself with an electric drill.
Once it was set up the bed looked pretty nice, especially for the price. I had an 8 mattress so there was a 2 gap between the headboard and mattress, so you would need at least a 10 mattress to avoid the gap.
