Hillsdale Vancouver Metal Headboard in Dark Brown Antique Finish - King Review

I was basically disappointed in this product after reading glowing reviews at other sites before I purchased it. Because I try to be positive, I'll give the good news first. It looks really nice on the bed and in my room, and gives the room exactly the feel I was looking for. It has a light and airy feeling because it allows the wall and the window behind my bed to show through, and I like that a lot. The paint quality and texture are very nice, the metal is sturdy, and there's interesting spiral detail in every other bar that doesn't show in the photos online. It's also quite light in weight, so it was easy to work with during the assembly and attachment to the bed frame.

As for the bad news, you have to look really closely to see that the color is brown; it's so dark that it might as well be black, and that's what it looks like from a distance.

I was also disappointed in the design quality. First, during the assembly you have to "attach" an extension to each side of the headboard. This means inserting a tapered end of the extension into an opening at the bottom end of the headboard. However, the extension barely goes into the opening, even when pounded with a mallet, which is what I used. This means that it's quite obvious that there's an extension stuck at the bottom end of each side of the headboard, and it looks quite "some assembly required." Fortunately the connection is hidden behind the pillows and the bedspread, so you don't notice it when the bed is made.

Another issue is that the screws provided to attach the headboard to the bed frame (for a queen size bed) are easily twice as long as they need to be, so they stick out a mile when you've attached the headboard to the frame. This means you have a choice: you can have the long end of the screw pointing inward, toward the bed, which means you run the risk of gouging your mattress or boxspring, or you can have the screws pointing outward, toward the wall, which means you risk gouging the wall if the bed gets too close to the wall. I chose to point the screws outward, because I decided that repairing the wall would be less expensive than replacing my boxspring. Incidentally, the screws provided for a full-size bed are about half as long as those for a queen for some reason, but they're too short to go through the headboard leg.
