This headboard looks awesome!  I was entertaining the idea of making my own headboard when I came across this on-line.  With the great price available for exactly the headboard I wanted already assembled, I decided to go for it rather than going through the hassle of building my own.  I am very glad I did.  I got it a few weeks ago, and it still has the slight new furniture smell, but I am hopeful it will fade away entirely soon.
