Bean Bag Chairs and
Bean Bag Furniture are our specialty
An official dictionary definition of bean bag chairs:
a chair like a large bean bag covered with vinyl, fabric, etc. and
filled with foam pellets, as of polystyrene, that shift about to
fit one's body.
There are many things to look at when considering
the purchase of a bean bag chair. Some of the factors to take into
account are size, material, print, filling and price. There is no
one-size-fits-all solution for a bean bag chair, as different people
will find different things appealing, and ultimately the most important
factor in purchasing a bean bag chair is whether or not you like
it.
Bean bag chairs come in sizes ranging from the very
small to the extremely large. The smallest bean bag chairs are intended
less for use as an actual chair than to accompany a full-sized bean
bag chair as an ottoman. The next size category are children’s
bean bag chairs, large enough for a small child but too small for
most adults. Then come queen-size bean bag chairs, which can comfortably
accommodate most adults. Finally, there are king- and deluxe-size
bean bag chairs, which are so large that most adults will be fully
enveloped by them, and large enough to accommodate two or more adults.
A bean bag chair may be made of any type of fabric,
and some eccentric variations exist at specialty stores. The most
common material for bean bag chairs is a simple cotton covering,
often accompanied by a microfiber liner to protect the bean bag
filling from water. Vinyl is another popular material for bean bag
chairs, though many people find the material too “sticky”
for comfort. Velour, leather, silk and even velvet bean bag chairs
are also available, ensuring that no matter what feel you are searching
for, you will be able to find it.
When looking for a bean bag chair, it is important
to find one with a removable outer sleeve. These are usually coupled
with a water-resistant inner liner which stays on at all times to
contain the bean bag filling. With a sleeve that can be removed
and washed, you can keep your bean bag chair clean and in good repair
quite easily.
Bean bag chairs come in all manner of prints and colors.
There are chairs with leopard and zebra prints, ornate paintings,
flat colors, shiny colors, stripes and textures, and virtually anything
else you can imagine. It is also possible to have a custom-made
bean bag chair cover which can be zippered over your existing bean
bag chair to give it a fresh, unique appearance.
Traditionally, bean bag chairs are filled with small
bits of Styrofoam to give them their unique texture. Styrofoam is
somewhat rigid and often leaks out of cheaper beanbag chairs over
time. To address the comfort and durability issues of Styrofoam,
some manufacturers have begun offering bean bag chairs made with
long pieces of polyurethane instead. These bean bag chairs are substantially
more expensive than their Styrofoam cousins, but the difference
in comfort is immediately apparent upon sitting in one.
The cheapest bean bag chairs can cost under $100,
and bargains can often be found at garage sales, particularly around
college campuses at the end of the school year. Mid-range bean bag
chairs cost between $130 and $200, depending on size and material.
Polyurethane bean bag chairs and designer bean bag chairs with ornate
prints can cost upwards of $300.
Whatever bean bag chair you ultimately choose, don't
forget to try it out first or, if you purchase online, to make sure
there is a flexible return policy. A bean bag chair should feel
as though it is molding to your body when you sit in it –-
this ultra-decadent feeling of comfort is after all the main reason
for choosing a bean bag chair over more traditional furniture.
