- Soft sheen of the finish takes a heavy steel frame and portrays it as light in weigh
The Matte Black finish presents on the Sanford is its defining characteristic to be sure. What other headboard shows a rich distillation of the option of bed as focal point or bed as background décor. The powder coat application marries texture to the surface in a way that both mutes and plays with light. Notice how he soft sheen of the finish takes a heavy steel frame and portrays it as light in weight. The castings locked in place on the headboard are intentionally finished in the same black power coat to show only their silhouette and accentuate their simple nature.

Beautiful Headboard
By Sandy
I had a hard time finding just a headboard, rather than a headboard/footboard combo. You feel a bit taken because purchasing the headboard alone doesnt give one a financial advantage. It doesnt have any "cheapness" about it at all. I cant tell you how nice this headboard looks against a pale gold wall. Splendid. This headboard can be feminine or masculine depending on your decor. Very versatile.

As usual, when I look at Amazon reviews I look at the 4/5 star reviews as well as 1/2 star reviews as it gives me the best pros and cons of any given item. At the time I purchased this, there were fourteen 4/5 star reviews and just one 2 star review. Majority of the purchasers like myself thought this item was a good price and more importantly that it looked nice and not cheap.So I was curious why there was a lone 2 star review. She complained that, "It is 3 1/2 inches too wide.", but I think she might have had a queen size thinking she owned a king size bed. I have two king size beds with metal bed frames in my house and I tried to put this headboard on both frames and it fit without any issues. This might deter other people from purchasing this item so I wanted to make sure people knew that this fits a king size frame.Now as far as putting this together, it was very easy. It came in a large rectangular slender box, but everything inside was wrapped and there was no damage to the item. It obviously came with all the tools needed (screws, nuts, tool) and I was able to put this together in less than 10 minutes. It was so easy even a cave man could do it (or cave woman).I would definitely recommend this to others needing a simple, elegant, and affordable headboard.*EDIT : 2013-02-18*Another buyer asked me for some specific details regarding the height of this bed frame so I thought it would be helpful to include that in this review as well. Hope this helps.From the bottom of the metal rod to the horizontal bar is 28 inches. Bottom rod to lower curved bar above the horizontal bar is 42 inches. Bottom rod to the higher curved bar is 46 inches. The highest point of the headboard is the two rounded points on the far right and far left side which is about 49 inches from the bottom of the headboard.

After selling our sleigh bed frame, we cast about for a headboard more in keeping with our smaller bedroom. This one seemed to fit the bill, but one never knows until it arrives. I'm happy to say that it's perfect for us. The flat black finish is unobtrusive, as is the size of the piece. It was ridiculously easy to put together and fit our standard king perfectly. Just make sure you have the bolt holes facing 90 degrees to the headboard or you're going to have a heck of a time getting the leg extensions off again to realign them.The cons: There's always at least one, isn't there? The mounting instructions call for the bolts to be inserted with the head on the exterior of the frame, and the nut on the box spring side. Unfortunately, the threads on the bolt extend too far past the frame and come in contact with the fabric on the box spring. Over time, this will cause a tear in the fabric. So I installed them from the inside out instead. One could also purchase shorter bolts.Also, there are no lock washers included with the parts, only flat washers. This means that over time the nuts will loosen and require tightening. I installed my own lock washers.Those are both minor problems that are easily cured and do not detract from the overall quality of the product.
