The main criticisms I have for this product are, 1) I had the mistaken impression that the bed shipped with the headboard - not that I had to purchase it separately.  I was disappointed when the bed arrived and I realized I still needed to order the headboard; 2)  quite complicated to put together; and 3) the headboard is quite top-heavy and wobbly and requires extra reinforcement.  Otherwise, a nice looking, reasonably-priced bed that was delivered quickly.
