The material is very durable and reminds me a little of denim. There's a bit of a sheen to the fabric. The tufted headboard seems high quality, except for the wooden legs. I don't know why the manufacturer chose such a cheap wood. Unless you attach this to your wall or buy new legs, it's going to be wobbly no matter what you do.

The legs are adjustable, so you can raise or lower the headboard depending on the size of your mattress, box spring or bed frame. The box provides bolts, washers, and an Allen wrench and the back of the headboard has pre-drilled holes. Super simple. Just measure and make sure you allow for a little clearance between the top of your mattress and the bottom of the headboard, otherwise you'll have a really fun time trying to make your bed. If you don't measure right, it's really easy to take off the headboard from the legs and re-attach. We did it in under five minutes.

I purchased this headboard with a steel platform frame (search SC-SBBK-14Q+BRKT on Amazon) that comes with headboard and footboard brackets. You do not need a drill for attaching the headboard to the brackets or for attaching the brackets to the bed frame. The bed frame already has the holes in place for attaching the brackets. The headboard attaches to the brackets with bolts, washers, and wingnuts, but you do need pliers to hold the wingnut in place while you tighten the bolt with an Allen wrench (provided). One person can do the job, but it's great to have someone to help you lift the headboard and hold it steady while bolting it to the bracket.
