The headboard comes folded in an airtight bag but it expands immediately upon opening. There was no smell. It was easy to install the brackets that slide under the mattress which fits 8-14 inches thick. The removable cover is soft and makes it easy to clean between guest visits. It is easy to put back on after washing. The color listed is beige but I’d say it is cream. Overall happy the headboard and would recommend it for a casually decorated room.

I needed a headboard to go in between my platform bed and my wall to keep my poor dog from following into the gap. This is absolutely perfect for that. It is the exact size I need it to be to make there not be a gap. My dog is very happy to not fall behind the bed anymore!

This headboard is soft, modern, and easy to install. It arrived well-packaged with clear instructions. The fabric feels durable and adds a cozy touch to my room. Great fit for my 12” mattress! Note the headboard arrived compressed and wrapped in plastic. Allow up to 3 hours for full inflation.

This was shipped in a very small slim box and it was a surprise to open it and find it neatly vacuumed sealed and folded in half. Upon cutting the bag open, it went into shape immediately and the set up Was super easy and fast. I appreciate how the legs fit into a back pocket for easy sliding under the bed. Nice quality and material. This is being used in a guest room where before the headboard, pillows would fall behind the bed, now it makes for a nice headboard. This mattress is about 14 inches deep, so the headboard doesn’t rise too high above the bed.
