This is a really nice piece. I purchased it to match and existing piece of furniture in my bedroom and it was right on. It looks exactly as pictured, but has a really nice quality to it. The leather is soft, and the tufting is nicely done with no pulls, tears or buckling. My only complaint about this bed, and it's not TERRIBLE, is that the headboard does not come up very high. We have a rather thick mattress with a pillowtop, and when you put that and the boxspring on the frame you barely see the headboard. Put the pillows on the bed and you don't see the headboard at all. I realize this has a sort of box spring/slat system included so I could eliminate my box spring--but I prefer to be higher up. This is a very nice quality piece. Shipping was fast, assembly was as expected. Would recommend.
