Love the bed, love the height of the headboard and love the fabric. The best part to me was finally finding an extra tall headboard that did not have tufted fabric or buttons. This bed makes a statement in the room. And the assembly? No tools needed and every part of it lined up perfectly and practically fell together. Oh, I forgot to mention the other big reason I picked this bed. I have a senior dog who's going blind so I needed a low bed but didn't like any platform bed on the market. This bed is low to the ground, and instead of a box spring, I used a 1" bungie board, so my mattress only peaks up about 6" above the sideboards. The look is fantastic and a safe height for my dog. :)
