One of the headboard attachment ends was bent. My husband, who is really strong, was able to unbend it a little bit with pliers, but not enough if I wanted to actually attach a headboard. Easy assembly, However, the washers that come with the bolts for the support rail narrow. Again, husband had to use a socket wrench to get enough torque to tighten them or the frame would rattle. Flawed design. If you have weak hands like me or no basic tools sitting around, be warned. Too bad because this thing is sturdy steel, adjustable, easy to assemble and supportive.
