True white color which is what i was looking for. I bought it not knowing that this would become my permanent office chair as I have started working from home due to covid. I originally bought it for my desk/vanity area (for use that would be 1-2 hours a day) but had to completely change it to a full office area. Bought it 6 months ago and i sit on it at least 9 hours a day 5x a week. So far so good. It is a good chair if you are bottom heavy. I would say it easily holds up weight if you're up to 250lbs.
