We Were A Little Reserved Buying This As Pictures Normally Don'T Show All The Detail, However, This One Was Even Better Than We Could Have Expected. I Am Very Picky About Decorating, And I Smiled The Entire Time While Unpacking This Headboard. If You Are Using Orb Andor A Dark Brown Theme, You Simply Will Not Be Disappointed With This Purchase! Instructions Are Easy Enough To Understand, And The Assembly Comes In 1 Piece....The Other 2 Pieces Are The Extension Legs If You Are Using This As A Head Board. If You Are Using This As A Footboard, You Wont Need The Extension Legs. The Finish Is A Deep Beautiful Coffee Color That Appears To Be Powder Coated, And Not Just Wet Painted...A Nice Plus. Wish I Could Share A Pic Of How It Really Changed The Look Of Our Guest Room.
