I wanted a white sofa and debated between the Optic White and the Bleached White. I ordered fabric samples and ultimately went for the Bleached White and love this color! I would say it's definitely more white than cream. The sofa is lovely (and it arrived two weeks early!). It is a bit firm but I'm hoping it will become more comfortable over time. I applied a coat of Scotchgard and am hoping that preserves the white color. So far I love it and would purchase again!
