I purchased this headboard in the arctic gray color. The color is beautiful and the fabric is thicker/softer than a typical linen blend. Looks like a $600 headboard at a fraction of the cost. Assembly was also very easy, and I could attach it to my own bed frame in a matter of minutes with a very basic tool kit from Wal-Mart (although a drill would've been helpful!). The best part was that it arrived two days early! I was more than shocked to see it at my doorstep the day after I ordered.
