![]() That’s right, friends, this genius DIY bean bag chair is kind of a game-changer. (Note: The extra-large size has a 38-inch diameter when fully stuffed, making it roomy enough for a younger kid to lie down on.) Happy parents report that the zipper is kid-friendly, so stuffed animal clean-up won’t fall squarely on your shoulders (or lower back) and, when filled, the chair is every bit as comfy as any other bean bag on the market. Aside from storage potential, the fact that the filling is customizable also brings the added benefit of being able to adjust both the size and the fill-power according to your personal preference. Cons: Cotton fabric is not stain-resistantĪlthough (or because) this versatile chair arrives unfilled, it scores points for functionality: Stuff it with beans of your choosing, use it to store the out-of-control stuffed animal collection that’s threatening to take over your home or, better yet, do both.Pros: Multifunctional, holds up to 90 plush toys, childproof zipper, machine washable, durable and comfortable.Otherwise, if you’re looking for something that can accommodate the whole family-or a group of growing teens-we’d recommend going with an oversized, (minimum of 6-feet) circular bag that allows 2-4 people to plop down comfortably. And, if you have limited space, rectangular or teardrop shapes can easily fit in the corner without taking up too much room. When it comes to selecting the best size for kids, we’d say something in the 4-to-5 foot range should give them ample room to spread out. Now, you can choose from rectangular, square and even tear-drop-shaped bags that range from 4-feet to 8-feet long. Size and Shape: Gone are the days where you could only choose from a standard, 4-foot circular bean bag. While some people love the shiftiness of the beads, others love the sink-into-me feeling of the foam. When deciding between the two, it’s important to consider how much support you’d like from your bean bag. Furthermore, polystyrene beads have been used to fill bean bags for years, foam filler is relatively new to the market. Foam, on the other hand, offers more support and precisely-molded comfort when compressed, but takes a much longer time to spring back up. so what’s the difference? In terms of comfort, polystyrene beads compress while you sit on them, but quickly spring back to their original shape when you get up. ![]() That said, if you have two young boys under the age of six, you’ll probably want something more durable (i.e., polyester or leather) that can hold up in the wash.įilling: Most bean bags are constructed with either polystyrene beads or foam filler…. However, these fabrics tend to be fickle in the wash and they’re rarely stain-resistant. For example, if you’re looking for something that’ll provide maximum comfort, cotton and microsuede fabrics are just as pretty as they are cozy. Fabric: This all depends on the level of durability and softness you want from your bean bag.
