kilo90 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I'm considering one for my teen daughter for Christmas. Looking at the fur option, but they are crazy expensive. Does anyone know if they ever go on sale before Christmas? Can anyone vouch for the quality? She reads constantly so I think she would live in it, but it's soooo pricey. (It would be her only gift from us) Anyone have another brand that is soft, comfy, & durable that you would recommend? Thanks for the input!

Ali in OR Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I was going to ask about this same topic! So tagging along, if you have a PB beanbag-- 1) does it get used a lot? 2) do you have to get the larger size for teens (5'0" to 5'6"--smallish skinnyish girls)? 3) okay for a small house or best if you have a bonus room or basement?

itsheresomewhere Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 DD has one. It is the large one and very good quality. I wash it several times a year and it looks new. Instead of buying it from pb teen I got it off eBay. I bought the cover and stuffed it with her stuff animals. It is very comfy. DS is getting a one this week as he loves hers. DD is not a teen so hers is large enough for her and I to sit in it and read together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DD is not a teen so hers is large enough for her and I to sit in it and read together. What a good idea to stuff with stuffed animals. I was going to ask about the stuffing - I worry about the polystyrene bead option, as they offgas, and I have a kiddo whose asthma gets crazy with offgassing. But animals - we can wash those! Very cool. Thank you for posting that tip. :) Land of Nod has bean bags on 15% off today, with flat rate shipping that's pretty inexpensive.

helena Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 We have the larger sherpa beanbag from PB Teen. It's well loved and used. We've had it over a year now and it's kept it's shape and still looks new. I think I signed up for emails for which they then sent me a coupon code... I then combined it with a sale price. That's usually the only way I make this kind of purchase. :) Before the PB beanbag, I bought two cheap ones from Target. They were a red twill type fabric. They lasted forever, and were used until they looked like deflated balloons. PB is on a whole other level. It's like a piece of furniture. My only rec is to check your measurements. The big one is HUGE! hth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kilo90 Posted September 30, 2014 Author Share Posted September 30, 2014 Thank you for the replies (and for the additional questions Ali in OR). Good to hear that those who have them are pleased and that sale prices pop up occasionally. Such a tough decision. I'm not good at spending $$ on things I can't touch first. :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KidsHappen Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Speaking of beanbags, I have been looking for beanbag covers only and haven't been able to find any. Does anyone know where I could get some? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
