Bean Bag Chair Differences

Today, there are many manufacturers of bean bag chairs. Each one tries to create something different from all the others. As a result, there are many choices:

• type of filler - polystyrene beans or urethane foam


• type of cover - vinyl or upholstery grade fabric


• with or without an inner liner


• quality of construction


• shape


• size.

It can become very confusing! Because of the well-earned reputation of Fuf Chairs and Jaxx Sacs, we will focus on the bean bag chair products of these two companies.

Fuf Chairs and Jaxx Sacs are similar in that they all feature:

• durable, supportive urethane foam fill


• have inner liners available


• with a nice choice of upholstery grade fabrics


• are made in the U. S. A.


• and are backed by a warranty against manufacturing defects.

However, that is where the similarities end! The shapes and sizes offered by each company are quite different.

Fuf Chairs are available in 7 sizes:

• Extra Small (2-footer) - sized for pre-K to middle-school age children


• Small (3-footer) - sized for early elementary to junior-high age children


• Medium (3.5-footer) - sized for junior-high to college age young people


• Large (4-footer) - supportive enough for a man


• King (5-footer) - cozy seating for two adults

These first five sizes are ball-shaped. The largest two sizes are capsule-shaped:

• Extra Large (6-footer) - can serve as a sleeper or a loveseat for two


• Extra Extra Large (7-footer) - also known as a Fuf Couch!

Jaxx Sacs are available as: the Jaxx Club, the Jaxx Lounger, the Jaxx Sac and the Jaxx Sphere.

The Jaxx Club is a unique four sided design and is available at a base width of 40" or 60".

The Jaxx Lounger is capsule-shaped, with a 3' diameter and lengths of 5', 6' or 7.5'.

The Jaxx Sac is drum-shaped, 3' in height and in diameters of 3', 4', 5', 6' and 7'.

The Jaxx Sphere is a ball-shaped design, 3' in height and either 5' or 6' in diameter.

Keep in mind: whether you choose a Fuf Chair or a Jaxx Sac ... you will want to carefully measure the space you have available ... those large size bean bag chairs are BIG!

But, no matter which you choose, you can be assured of a quality product that will serve you well for years to come!

Solving the Money and Space Dilemma

Convertible Seating and Convertible Bedding ...
the answer to the "money and space dilemma"!

Foam furniture that serves more than one purpose is the perfect solution for anyone who is on a tight budget, living in a college dorm room, or one bedroom apartment, or frequently has unexpected guests! Foam furniture is:

• lightweight and easily moved
• durable and supportive
• but most importantly ... affordable.

Convertible Seating ...
Relax Lounger and Jaxx Pillow Sac

We offer two affordable casual seating options: the Relax Lounger (a Fuf product) and the Jaxx Pillow Sac. Both of these products serve either as a bean bag style lounger or chair, as well as a large, luxurious floor pillow.




Relax Lounger
The Relax Lounger is a convertible lounger with side buckles that easily unsnap and quickly convert it into a large floor pillow. Laid out flat, the Relax Lounger measures 54" x 45" and is a full 12" thick!





Jaxx Pillow Sac
Depending on how you position it, the Jaxx Pillow Sac can be a large bean bag chair or full-length body pillow. It measures 5' x 6' and is 20" thick! It also features an inner liner, which allows you to remove the outer cover for laundering.

Both the Relax Lounger and the Jaxx Pillow Sac feature quality upholstery grade fabric covers, durable supportive urethane foam fill and are made in the U. S. A. For more information on the Relax Lounger, click here ... for the Jaxx Pillow sac, click here.

the Zak Contour Convertible and the Jaxx Zak Cocoon

We offer two convertible bedding products: the Zak Contour Convertible and the Jaxx Zak Cocoon. Both of these foam furniture pieces serve multiple purposes.



Zak Contour Convertible

The Zak Contour Convertible is both stylish and space-efficient. When folded, it serves as a place to sit, as an ottoman and even as a table! Unfolded, it becomes a firm, confortable sleeper. The Zak Contour Convertible is available in two sizes: Twin and Full. The Zak Contour Convertible is 5.5" thick ... solid foam ... covered in upholstery grade fabric.





Jaxx Zak Cocoon
The Jaxx Zak Cocoon is 6' long and 1' thick ... filled with high quality shredded urethane foam. When you recline length-wise, it literally becomes a cocoon ... totally enveloping and supporting you from head to toe as you slumber. Otherwise, it can be a bean bag for several people to share!

Children's Rocking Horses - Safe AND Fun

Last week we talked about the safety standards employed by Levels of Discovery for all of their children's playroom furniture. Make no mistake: "Safe" does NOT have to mean "Boring"! Levels of Discovery's rocking horses are designed to stimulate a child's imagination.

In recognition of the safety standards and unique design of these children's rocking chairs, the March 2009 issue of Pregnancy Magazine features the Rock-A-My-Baby Rocking Horse:

The Rock-A-My-Baby Rocking Horse features:

• a cradle on the back end so that "mommy" can rock her "baby" to sleep
• a music box - pull the heart on the seat (near the horse's neck) to hear the tune "Rock A Bye Baby"
• and, it meets the highest standards of the Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The playful design, exquisite hand painting, and attention to detail make this wooden rocking horse a keepsake-quality "heirloom-to-be"! It is recommended for toddlers to age 3 years (up to 50 lbs).

Click here to learn more about the Rock-A-My-Baby Rocking Horse. Tomorrow we will talk about some of the other safe playroom furniture that is available.
