Great looking bed!  The only reason I didn't give 5 stars was because the headboard assembly instructions were not specific enough.  If the headboard itself had been marked "INSIDE" and "OUTSIDE" or "TOWARD MATTRESS" and "AWAY FROM MATTRESS", it would have saved at least 30 minutes of assembly time.  The slots into which the metal inserts go are on BOTH sides of the headboard, but their lengths are not uniform.  They are shorter on the one side and will not work if you are using the top position (the mattress only option).  Once we figured this out, and turned the headboard the other way (and switched the side posts), the metal hooks inserted easily.
