Exceeded expectations for guest bedroom, but would have considered for master if my Temprapeutic mattress wasn't  sooo heavy.....Color is much nicer than photos show.  Fabric is also great-I would not call it "velvet" (I do not like velvet anyway)-it is a little lower pile and more texture-great for cleaning spots probably.  Took experienced handy guy about 2 hours-LOTS of Allen screws by hand as we did not have Allen drill bit for power-Recommend power to cut time.  Packaged very well.  Hydraulics seem to work well-does take both hands for me, guess that depends on how heavy mattress is.....Very, very happy and would recommend without hesitation.
