In the pictures, there's a slab of wood sticking out off the sides where the headboard would go. Is that really there?

That was a mystery to me. It did not go anywhere. I just threw it away. I would say, this was a clunky piece on the whole. I would dissuade you from buying it. It didn't come together and at the end of it, I wish I could have bought something else.

Without the headboard there would be a big open gap at the head of the bed. I'm not sure if it's sold separate but you want the headboard If you get this

No not at all. The headboard is made quite nice and is sturdy. Love this headboard!

It doesn't come with a headboard. Even though it is pictured with a headboard, it is an optional item at an additional cost.

Mine did not have any hardware enclosed. However, I also purchased the metal bed frame from Amazon and it didn't seem to be compatible with the Dexter headboard. The headboard would have been too high if I used the pre-drilled holes in the end rails. Way too high! I simply attached directly to the wall with 3 1/2" screws and it not only looks perfect it is as solid as a rock. There is no noise from rocking the bed! That was my choice and I am very pleased. Nobody that has seen the bed even suspects that I did this because it looks so aesthetically pleasing. This might not work for everybody but it did for me. Mine did not have any hardware enclosed.

The back of the headboard is finished, but it does not go all the way to the floor. There is a gap between the headboard and the bass, where the mattress is that is unattractive from behind.

There is some true wood there, but mostly fiberboard. Still despite the fiberboard content, we are still pretty happy with the bed. Headboard wiggles a little but for a king size bed, it's not bad for the price. Looks (and weighs) pretty substantial.. Would suggest two people for carry and assembly.

Even though the picture shows the side rails, this listing only comes with the headboard. It is designed to attach to a separate bed frame.

There is no headboard and no legs on the one you get. You will still have to buy a bed frame. The frame I got was really just box springs without the upholstery on the box. It has worked out fine, but I wouldn't have ordered it if I had known.

I'm sorry I can't answer that, I bought the frame for my daughter and we put it together, it appeared to be made of a good quality. She didn't have a headboard so the only thing I know is that there is place to bolt one onto it.

It's just a standard metal frame between the headboard and footboard. So, probably.

The headboard is a separate piece but it is an integral/structural part of the bed. Not using it would require fairly significant modification.

I am not sure, but I did not. It is quite sturdy and I just have it pushed up against the wall. It is a very pretty headboard. Very happy with it.

there isnt a headboard that is the beauty of it. It is reall a day bed style. Putting it together is very easy and it is really sturdy. For the price it is great construction.

Headboard and footboard are a part of the structure. The side rails, at least structurally speaking, do not have to be installed.

It is but only the cheap fiber board and you nail it to the back so you can see the nails. I would not want to see it from the back side.

No, It's a veneer. I can't remember what the body wood is (I read it somewhere) but it's dense and fairly heavy. Definitely not basswood etc.
