The color is a true white. My husband put it together & had no problem, but the holes don't match up to the frame.  I'd like it to be taller. When you put shams against it, it covers the headboard., but my husband is going to extend the height and drill new holes. I didn't want a headboard that overpowered the room, so it'll be fine

Pros: Price
Cons: Consider the height for your needs
