Review on πŸ›‹οΈ The Ultimate Comfort: Big Joe Classic Beanbag Smartmax in Sapphire – Your Perfect Lounge Companion by Alicia Fraser

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Filled in by someone? good for furniture

okay. Very strong fabric, not very soft, canvas/teflon/bulletproof feel. It is convenient and very easy to clean. Actually I prefer velvet or suede fabrics - SURE! The filling is hard, just balls of hard foam that might have felt soft in our giant '80s bags, akin to rock in such a small form factor. The size is small as intended, but stuffing the same size beads into a much smaller pouch made of stiffer fabric results in a hard fall or sagging. I can't get in there, but my little ones always find a comfortable position. First I bought a tangy lime, then I bought another black one for a promotion. Green or any color other than black will do. The black color will show any stains and fibers your kids will pick up on it. Update: July 2017. The bag is damned. Initially somewhat impressed with the lime pocket and super price, I also bought a black Big Joe a month later while making a lightning fast/daily/unannounced deal. Today, the lime sack has become just a sack - quite quickly, I might add. Either my kids are eating Styrofoam or it's just shrunk so much that there really aren't any "beans" left in it. Black seems to have more bean power and isn't as smooth as light green considering the difference in purchase/use times. In this case, reduce from 4 to 2 stars.

Pros
  • pleasant
Cons
  • mostly good, but...
