We're using these in 2 bedrooms and love Sauder furniture. It's very solid, looks convincingly good, even though it's a "fake woodgrain" on a particle board core. Sauder has done a marvelous job producing faux oak woodgrain that is remarkably genuine in appearance.
My only "gripe" is that the "Carolina Oak" finish has had its color changed sometime in the past 2-4 years, which meant that one of our bedrooms had mismatched colors, because the new piece is darker than the "original". However, I discovered that I like the new darker finish better; it looks richer and, although it's not noticeable until you have the old and the new side-by-side, the newer woodgrain finish looks more genuine.
Sauder's customer service is unmatched: if you receive any damaged part(s), simply call their 800-number (plainly marked on the assembly directions/parts list) and they'll ship you replacements for free without any need to return the defective/broken part(s). Anything from missing bolts to broken mirror glass to peeling faux-woodgrain has been replaced at no cost, and without hassle.
NOTE: Don't discard the cardboard box everything came in until you've finished assembling, because they sometimes need the serial number from the box (or sometimes from the assembly manual) to ensure you'll get the correct part (they have occasional engineering revisions, and some parts may differ between revs, and the serial number tells them when the packaged piece came off the assembly line).
We've bought about 20 of the various Sauder furniture pieces over the past 15-20 years and have been very pleased with every one of them. Directions are clear, the parts list has excellent diagrams so you don't mix up one size of screw, washer, or nut with another, and the few times that there's been a discrepancy in the number of parts they shipped it was because they accidentally put in several extras!
As several others have commented, just treat the furniture with a slightly hydrophobic perspective -- particle board doesn't like water. Treat your Sauder well and it'll last a very long time.
This particular piece was heavier than we expected (a good thing for a headboard) and while we would have preferred a lighter finish option (maple, please, Sauder, or ash) ended up looking really good. The shelves are about the right widths and heights (adjustable) to customize putting alarm clocks, lamps, places for glasses, etc. on each side of the bed, and are heavy enough to support real books. The back board is just high enough you can sit up in bed with a pillow under your back without smooshing stuff on the shelves. The back panel is the usual cheap cardboard, and MUST be attached correctly to get good stability, so pay attention to that step. It looks fine once assembled but our experience with flat-assemble is that this is almost always the first part of a piece to take damage, and thus lead to the eventual collapse of a pressboard piece. There are pre-scored holes above each "compartment" on the back panel to pop out to run electrical cords as needed, in good spots, but don't pop them out until you need them or it will be a bit unsightly.
Tip: A big plus are the mounting flanges/brackets, which are very heavy duty and have a variety of holes in them for attaching to various bedframes. However, in our case we had a wood platform frame and the brackets (utterly necessary to keep the headboard steady when you are in bed) did not fit anywhere. We were very hesitant to drill more holes in pressboard, but what we ended up doing was using the brackets to mount the headboard to the floor (where we had spots we didn't mind drilling in), and then just positioned the bed accordingly. The headboard is very stable and level this way, and we can thus still move the bedframe around for cleaning, etc., without dragging the headboard.
We installed this on a queen, and it had enough space to fit over the end just so without swallowing the head of the bed or leaving gaps. For a full, I suspect the best strategy is to put it over the frame asymmetrically, so the "gap" is all on one side of the bed, where you'd have a little storage nook (put a hook on the frame, or maybe some ready-made stack organizers, for a little extra shelf/nook storage.)
One caveat: outgassing from the pressboard. Our manufacture date (US made) on our set was only about six weeks before we got it -- let's hear it for drop-shipping -- but whatever process they make the wood product with, there's a persistent (although diminishing) smell from the product that has ranged from distracting to a little nauseating. It did abate after a couple of weeks and has been disappearing, but is still there. So to Sauder - maybe "cure" these a little longer before shipping; for the consumer -- if you can wait, you may want to take the pieces out of the box and leave them out in a room you don't sleep in for a week or two before assembling.
All that said, a pretty darn good deal - for a very low amount of money, a pretty sturdy piece that fits well and provides a nice space-saving alternative to side tables.
