The picture instructions were easy, I put it together by myself, the rich color and fabric exactly what I expected,   but a few screws didn't line up quite right, the important one being one of the two that are support screws bolting the back of the headboard together. The instructions tell you to attach the headboard and then put in the screws, I would say make sure they go together easily, take them back out and put the headboard together because it takes some force to push the 2 pieces of the headboard together and it would be a pain to try to get it back apart.
