Up to now a headboard was unimportant, we moved and I decided our bedroom needed some help so I purchased this headboard, Installation was easy and I am thrilled with the looks and added comfort. We have an adjustable bed and it does not impede the motion if I move the bed at all. It seems to have an odor, somewhat unfriendly, I have checked everywhere and I cannot determine where it comes from, just the materials it was made of I guess. After several months, the odor seems to be shortening and not as strong. Where we live, it is very dry so I am hoping that the odors will eventually completely, it still lingers a little when you sit up against it. Not terrible but not completely the best of scenarios. Overall, I am happy with the headboard, I did not take it out of the box for about 3 months, so I did not consider sending it back after I got it installed on the bed.
