We got the king size headboard and it fits very well. It's not as tall as the pictures make it seem but that's actually a good thing. The material is rougher, kind of tweed like, but it works. It is true taupe, very tan and the black piping is nice. A lot straighter then I was afraid of. I was actually going to return it the moment I bought it but they were unable to cancel my order. I decided to put it up to see how it looks and it's very classy, simple and works really well. I hate how expensive headboards are, so this was worth it but still could have been under $200. Overall, I am keeping it and it is pretty and classic looking :)
