Customer Reviews

Looks great, Very Functional
This headboard is a great price, it's functional, and looks very stylish once it's put together. It is a spacesaver if you have a narrow bedroom like we do, which can not accomodate nightstands. Assembly is not too difficult if you have assembled something before. Some of the pieces are very fragile until they are put together. Just take it very slowly, read the instructions carefully, and get some help with the large parts. I assembled the king headboard right on top of our bed, it was the most comfortable place to do so, and then it was easy to transfer it to the floor, with help from my husband. In addition, I cut two holes in the back board as pass throughs for electrical cords, using a hole cutter on my drill. It is better to drill the holes before you tack on the back, as this will protect the thin finish better. Just hold up the back to the assembled headboard case, measure and mark where the holes are needed, and then move the back to a safe place on the floor where you can drill the holes. Drill slowly, and you will have a good result. We are very pleased with this headboard.

Great product for the price
Pros:
- Good looking
- Doesn't feel cheap (after assembly)
- Fairly easy assembly (be carful on the hammering parts. I hammered the plastic pegs in a little to hard and put a small dent in the top board of the unit.)
- Inexpensive
- FREE shipping!

Cons:
- The finish comes off VERY easily. Mine had several gouges and scratches right out of the box.
- The MDF is too thin to last more than a few years. (I would only buy this piece if you're expecting to replace it 2-5 years.)
- You cannot set drinks or get the headboard wet in any way (according to the instruction manual) or the MDF will disintegrate.


Four stars for the extremely cheap finish. If this unit simply had a better finish it would be a five star piece I could recommend to anyone. As it is, though, I would still recommend this unit to anyone looking for an inexpensive headboard for a bedroom.

Awsome!!
I was searching at Amazon.com for a sturdy and affordable bed for my 13 year old son. When I came across this Manhattan Full/Queen Bookcase Headboard in Espresso Finish, I thought it was perfect. Words can not describe how please my son and I are with this purchase. The color is rich and it is solid and sturdy. I don't think I could have found something better for the price I paid. It was money well spent. I am going to purchase the matching Dresser and Night Stand. I definately recomment this product.
