Went together very nicely. Great and easy instructions and all hardware was there. I did have to order 2 replacement shelves as the white strip was on the wrong end but it wasno problem calling Saunders and getting them shipped out. Extremely pleasant actually to talk to. It’s for my grand daughters bed and she loves it. While the full size bed that this headboard will be used on does work and the brackets do connect to the bed frame, I wish they made it in a full size only. Also I should have measured the height, as with the newer thick mattresses, the back shelves actually get covered over by the pillows. The height is included in the description so this isn’t a negative on Saunders. For the price it’s a nice headboard.Oh, I should say it was packaged very nicely and secure.

This headboard is beautiful and feels sturdy once assembled. Ready-to-assemble furniture can often end up feeling cheap and flimsy, but so far this headboard has been well worth it. There were no pieces missing, and there was no damage to the parts. Often there are misaligned holes, chipped veneer, exposed particleboard, and warped pieces with this kind of furniture, but to my relief I didn't have any of those problems with this headboard.I did not add the adjustable shelves that can be fit into the two sides because they made the spaces much too small to decorate properly. I estimate there would have been about 4 or 5 inches of space above and below those shelves, which is only room enough to display small trinkets on each shelf. Instead I left them out so that I could fill the entire length of the bookcase with books, and it looks impressive. If you choose books with neutral spines so that they don't detract from the headboard or feel too loud for the sleeping area, using a bookcase as a headboard can really help utilize space in the bedroom. But buyers need to know that if they plan to use this headboard as a bookcase, they'll need to leave the adjustable shelves out and even then it won't hold books that are more than about 10 inches tall.This headboard needs at least two people to assemble; some of the pieces can be awkward and heavy to handle, but that is to be expected. It worked very well to attach it to a queen metal platform bedframe. I only have two regrets: I wish there had been more color options, and I wish the headboard were a little taller. When the bed is fully made, the books are partially hidden and the bookcase looks a tad short.Overall, however, I love this headboard! It adds wonderful character to the room, and I love the way it grounds the bed and delights the eye while being useful for bibliophiles who always need more space for books.

This is a great bookcase headboard. I tried to put it together on my own and ran into problems with the big pieces. I suggest two people when assembling it. Once assembled, I was very pleased with the utilitarian quality and usefulness of it. The price was very fair.

I will never buy Sauder again. Instructions were great, but every time the headboard was moved, it came apart with sawdust and no way to put it back. I glued, used gorilla tape, bought poly reinforcements to manage to get it to stay together. Extremely disappointed in this product. Instructions were easy, but it wouldn’t hold together. Never again!

I got this for a guest room. Though it states full/queen, it’s definitely better suited for a queen. The sides stick out too much for a full sized mattress. I need to figure out a way to hide the protruding sides. It wasn’t too hard to put together, and I’m not a handy person. It’s sufficient for now and worth the cost.

First, let me say, the final side is tricky to snap together. I suggest you pull the pins out as far as they go. Then, angle the top in first, line up the holes, then push hard. It took me several tries but everything lined up well. As with all particle board products, do not over-tighten any of the screws. Snug is fine. I as suggest flipping the piece end over end at the step where you need to add the back. At this stage, the piece is flimsy and could fall apart,The finished product looks awesome in my home near the sea and I recommend it to anyone used to assembling their own furniture. BTW, I am 66 years old, and 5'5" and was able to do it by myself.
