Why Bean Bags Make The Perfect Alternative to Sofas

When many adults think of bean bags they think back to their childhood when these novelty chairs were all the rage with children. Nowadays however bean bags are trendy accessories for the modern home, many of which are too expensive to let the kids play on.

Their significant comfort levels and generally laid back vibe has also made them a popular favourite in the offices of those working in the creative industries. Should you be considering purchasing a bean bag for your home but are still a little bit unsure, here are the advantages of bean bags that have lead to them being so popular.

Incredibly Comfortable

Well, first off, in terms of comfort, bean bags really are difficult to beat. They incorporate all the comfort of high end sofas but come at a fraction of the cost. You can simply hop onto them, spread out and automatically find yourself enjoying maximum levels of comfort. And if there has ever been a type of chair that appears to have been designed to take an afternoon nap in, bean bags are very much that type of chair.

Ideal For Those Without Much Space

For those that are limited on space, bean bags make the ideal alternative to sofas. Not only are bean bags significantly smaller than sofas, they are also lightweight enough to be moved around the room and only taken out when actually in use. This makes them ideal for those that would like a little bit of extra seating when friends come around but really cannot afford the floor space on a permanent basis.

A Wide Variety of Styles

To complement the rather quirky nature of bean bags, they are available in a ridiculous array of different sizes, materials and vibrant styles. From fluffy to leather, from zebra stripes to primary colours, regardless of the existing furnishings in a particular room, it would be impossible not to find a bean bag that will suit it perfectly.

Bean Bags are Green

You are free to purchase a bean bag in any colour you want and still be certain of it's green credentials. Unlike sofas, no wood is required to construct a bean bag and as no wood is required, no trees need to be cut down to make it. You can even take the levels of environmentally friendliness one step further by choosing a bean bag that is made out of reused foam or even recycled furniture parts.

Light Enough to Carry Home

Finally, another reason for the popularity of bean bags is that unlike most types of furniture, you don't need a van to get the thing back to your house. This means that rather than having to order and wait for a sofa, you can simply visit a shop and take your new bean bag home with you on foot. Not quite a reason alone to purchase a bean bag but just one more convenient aspect of these novel inventions.
