It was fairly easy to put together by little old me alone. Thankfully fit perfectly (!) beneath my antique piece from Harvard law school! I’m glad I chose the black because it blends in well…. I think I need to paint that one wall a darker color, though.

it is fair. not great, but fine. it is free standing. I purchased the black version. somehow slightly darker than I imagined or I thought based on the image. it is stable, freestanding. it was well packaged. it also is what it is, a fairly cheap flat pack headboard. honestly, there didn't seem to be a lot of good options for dark headboards. the downside, the directions weren't that great. thankfully the piece isn't that complicated to put together. there are exposed 1/2" fastener heads they want you to place stickers over; this is inside the bookcase portion. I thought that was on the chintzy side. On the outside edges the fasteners are recessed into the thicker portion of the frame. they're saying here is this 1/4" deep hole, you can see the natural colored wood inside the hole, but here is a sticker to cover it. that doesn't work well. I feel like i need to find and cut a dowel to fill in the recess before placing the sticker. Even having a plastic plug would have been better.

This headboard is so well made came perfectly wrapped. The black is a beautiful color to accent my grandsons bedroom. Easy to put together and at a fantastic price you can’t beat it. Wayfair has great customer service you won’t be disappointed

The westpark bookcase headboard looks great. The bookcase headboard was very easy to put together and looks to be sturdy. The color of the headboard is nice and fits in with the decor in the bedroom..

This bookcase headboard is exactly what was needed. It wasn’t hard to put together and it’s sturdy enough to stay together. I love the color of the wood stain and it has plenty of compartments and room for anything you might need or want.
