Absolutely adore this bed. I was creating a guest bedroom,,and this metal headboard was the perfect choice and the price was sensational.  Note: the metal is more of a dark deep navy blue,,rather than the advertised black, but it worked for my cape cod/nautical/period decor.  Shipping was fast, all parts included, and I attached it to my old frame without too much trouble at all.  Great headboard, I get a lot of compliments!
