I love this headboard! I was nervous about the gray matching my already very gray room, but it's perfect. The color, look and feel are great. I also didn't know if it would come up as high as I was wanting but it does. However, it would maybe be a little better if the upholstered part extended farther down - before I added a memory foam topper there was a gap between the headboard and my mattress. With the 4 inch topper, it meets the upholstered headboard now but just barely. The bad thing about that is that my mattress slips underneath the headboard, which causes the length of my bed to be too short (I'm only 5.2, and my feet reach over the edge of my mattress.) To make up for that, I just push my mattress down off the box spring a couple inches.

Pros: color, texture, quality, height
Cons: headboard maybe needs to extend a little farther down
