It's definitely white, which is just what I wanted, not off white. It's very comfortable and adjusts to what I need. However, the vinyl is thinner than I thought it would be. Don't know how long it will last. I really hate it when I buy something from wayfair and a few days later it's cheaper than I paid. Even though it's only a few dollars, it's very annoying. I've been buying from Wayfair since way before they advertised on TV and I've always been happy with my purchase. The dollars back was an influence on my purchases, sorry they don't have it anymore.
