We order this in the white, but the color was very "ivory" and too yellow for our room. We exchanged it for the gray one and the color is a nice medium/dark gray in a good cotton fabric. The ivory one was in some kind of microfiber that looked like it was from the 70's - very groovy!  It's a great chair for our office, and we will use it if we need an extra bed. However, we tested it out and there is a bar across your back if you face in one direction. If you switch to face the bottom on the chair, the bar isn't as bad and one could sleep pretty ok for a few nights. Not for more than 3-4 nights though. Why don't these companies make the beds more comfortable??  I would have paid $100 more if the bed was comfortable - could be a money maker to actually make a quality sleeping bed!
