Our family has two s: one giant 8ft lounger and this 3 traditional bean bag. We love them both! If youre looking to add a high-quality beanbag to a family room, these are highly recommended.
The s are perfect for our family room so that extra family members can always pull up a seat to watch a movie. And my favorite part is that its much more comfy for mom and dad, with our old creaky joints, to pull up a spot on the floor and play games with the kids. Theyre amazingly comfortable, even for a big adult, to settle back into.
s are really well designed; far nicer than the leaky beanbags we all know from our youth. Their soft microfiber outer lining is cozy and resists wear and stains. Its also super easy to remove and wash when the little ones inevitably dirty it.
The 3 model is perfect as a size compromise. The 8 model is very heavy, making it tough for a smaller person to drag around and takes up a lot of space. Meanwhile the kids can drag around the 3 model and nestle it into lots of nooks and crannies around the living room.
My initial reaction to this product was not very positive, but Ive come to appreciate that much of that was about my expectations. I sank down into a beanbag chair or two in the 70s and 80s; and thats what you do, you sink in to the point you actually have a brief moment of unease thinking okay, how am I getting out of this? But they were comfortable, and being swallowed up by them was fun as a kid.
The Chill Bag is only a bean bag in the sense that its a sack with material inside, and its meant to be used as a seat. Theres no common DNA between the stuffings themselves, and its that filler that defines the whole experience.
You will not sink very deeply into the Chill Bag. Indeed, smaller kids (my daughter is 17 months) dont sink into it at all. They just dont have the weight. This is good in the sense that its easy to get in and out of it. Perhaps less good in the sense that it doesnt offer that bean bag embrace that made them so popular in the olden oldie times.
That said, once you get past the notion of it being a bean bag, and just let it stand on its own merits (and stand open to settle for a couple weeks, because at first its just a dense blob of compact foam), then you can come to appreciate it as a soft and comfortable casual seat (good for book reading) that actually offers a measure of support. These arent bad things.
For my taste, the camel or pebble (not sure which I have, its not terribly clear -- but its a taupe and not the charcoal pictured) is bland and unattractive. Id recommend one of the darker colors.
Overall, it feels good and supports well. My friends all like it. The only problem I didnt expect was that some foams are large and you can feel the shapes of them. But I think this is the problem with all foam bags, so I will accept it.
I fall in love with the chill bag. The foam will expand more after next couple days so be patient Im very happy with their customer service. They let me exchange for another color without any question. I recommend the color cinnabar, as its a very pretty dark red. It looks so much better in person!!!
Both of our teeenagers initially really liked this. Its much more comfortable for the curled up or sprawled out teenager lounging than a typical chair. Its big enough for the 6 ft kid to be comfortable in, although obviously his legs are hanging off.
Lately though, theyve used it a lot less and both favor the larger and softer Comfy Sacs 5 ft bean bag. That one is huge, big enough for both of them or one plus a dog and its got a very plush cover. However, at over $300 it costs more than 3 times the price of this Chill Sac. If money is no problem, sure, go for the Comfy Sac. However if like most of us youre on any kind of budget, get 2 Chill Sacs and have money left over!
Love this beanbag. Ordered it to do my work in or read. Love it the memory foam beans are very soft and dont make that obnoxious noise when you sit down in it. It is larger than a normal bean bag, which I like considering Im 55. I ordered 2 and enjoy them very much.

Better, I think, if you dont think of it as a bean bag chair and instead just consider it as a shredded memory foam sack seat.

Feels good

Chilling everyday.

Nice size, soft

Its for my kid, but I like it, too!
