I love the clean lines and solid color of this headboard because it coordinates well with the bedroom furniture I just bought. It was easy to assemble. I haven't attached it to my metal bed frame yet, because it doesn't include the mounting hardware. Just a note: The holes are pre-drilled on the back only, so I assume we'll need to completely drill out the rest of whichever holes we use. I don't know if that is standard, as this is my first headboard.
