I loved the quick & easy assembly.  The material is soft!  I ordered the "white" which looks pure white in the photo,however it is more of an ivory or cream color instead, which was disappointing because my coordinating bedroom furniture is pure white.  So, if this is "white" then I wonder what the "cream" color actually looks like?  In the photo for "cream" it looks like the color that I actually received.  I double-checked my past order and it did say "white". Anyway, I ordered a king headboard in order to create a twin daybed.  I got this idea from somebody's DIY blog.  Place this king headboard against a wall, then place a tall twin size platform base (i.e. 14"H) horizontally against the headboard.  Order a tall mattress (i.e. 10" H or more) and you will have a plush DIY twin daybed! No need to secure the headboard to the wall.
