I am very happy with this headboard. I do wish that it were more of a white. As other reviewers have said it is more of a cream color. However, when I had it set up in the bedroom it went perfectly with my decor.  So perfectly, that I feel it was the perfect choice. 

I put the headboard together by myself and bolted it to the bed frame ... also by myself. I was quite proud of myself. Just a note, you will need to purchase the bolts needed to attach the headboard to the bed frame. Those were not provided. All other hardware was in the box with some extras provided. Great purchase!
