This headboard arrived and the color is exactly as we were hoping-a true ivory color! Since it’s a CA King size, assembly was easier with two people and it took about 15 minutes to assemble and 5-10 minutes to attach to the bed. Instructions are easy to follow. The quality of all the materials is great and includes everything you need to assemble. I would highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a quality linen headboard at a great price. Lots of value here!
