I like the headboard, it looks wonderful and makes my room look more put-together. My dad attached it for me, and it's probably my own fault that it's not connected to my bed that well - the hardware I bought to go with my bedframe that makes attaching a headboard possible doesn't quite match up with my bedframe (though they were from the same company - but not the same co as the headboard) and so the headboard is sort of jerry-rigged to the frame. Again, probably all my bad!
