I LOVE this bed & am SO happy I ordered it!  Everyone that sees it compliments my bed, and I can't help but agree with them.  FYI, unless you have a super-thick mattress, there will be a bit of a gap between the bottom of the headboard & the top of your mattress, where you can see the wall behind your bed.  This isn't a problem for me, because I have a down comforter that is very fluffy, so when my bed is made, the comforter fills in that gap, plus pillows at the head of your bed will cover this.  It's no biggie, really.  :)
