Looks great in our renovated primary bedroom/bathroom. The dark and soft velvet with wings (and gold leg accent) feel more expensive than it was. Was pretty easy to put together - took my husband and I about 2 hours altogether. Using a box spring, it sits higher than anticipated so the headboard looks lower than the pictures, but I don't mind it. I love my new bed. It'll definitely hold us over for a few more years until we're ready to buy something more substantial for the long term.
