I am am sure this is a nice sturdy bed frame, and after putting the frame together it does appear to be so. Sadly after all the hardworking of putting the frame together I came to realize the headboard I have will not attach to the frame. I am sad because I don't believe this is made clear at all on this product that only certain types of headboards can be attached to the frame. I would never have ordered this frame if I had the full information on the frame. Joss and Main was nice enough to call the manufacture for me and ask for an attachment piece but the company doesn't have any to make it compatible with headboards. Probably a great product but lacks needed clear information on what can and can't be attached to it. No standard headboard will work I don't believe.
