A bean bag chair is a low, soft seat for a dorm, a bedroom or a gaming corner. Modern adult models are usually filled with foam rather than loose beads, which keeps their shape and makes them easier to sit in and out of. Size varies widely, from a 3 foot round to a 68 inch lounger.

The six bean bag chairs below all use foam filling and range from a 3 foot sphere to a giant lounger with built-in arms. Sizes, fillings and fabrics come from each product’s listing page. We have not sat in these chairs ourselves. One listing’s size looks small for the “adults” label, and one lists teens as the age range.

Bean Bag Chair FAQ

Foam or beads?

Foam holds its shape. Beads flatten and need refilling more often.

Are they good for working?

They suit lounging better than desk work.

How long does expansion take?

The Vellorise listing says about 48 hours.

The Short Version

For a small single seat with a washable shell, the ILPEOD. For a sofa-like giant, the HUGHEAVEN or MAXYOYO. For a velvet cover, the Yagamo. For the biggest lounger with armrests, the MaxiBean. Check the Vellorise size before buying.
