I love my beanbag but was very disappointed at needing to fill it myself from the bag of beans. I expected to open the box and have something I could sit on straight away. I was also disappointed at the assumption that I live with someone, or have someone I can ask to help me with the task, as the instructions advise against tackling the task alone. When friends come to visit I don't ask them to work. It's a good thing this is a type of seat, because after several hours spent filling it, I really needed to sit down! You gave some reasons why it's done this way, but I would rather have paid extra and had it pre-filled. You could offer this as an option.

Upon delivery, the box was left outside our 2nd floor flat. With a trail of polystyrene balls all the way through our block. The fact that this is self assembly is hidden in the features section of the product and I feel this should be highlighted more clearly on the page. The bag for our polystyrene balls was broken upon arrival and once we had put all the balls inside the beanbag, I don’t feel there is enough to fill it. So I don’t know how many had fallen out in transit, but I could count more than 100 on the trail up to our flat. I feel mislead when purchasing this. It’s a messy job and not clearly stated that it self assembly. I really hope our niece likes this and it’s worth the aggravation of putting together and apologising to our neighbours for the mess caused by its delivery. I would love to know how that bag of beans is supposed to fill the entire bean bag. It’s saggy. See pics.

The beans don't stay in any of the right places so it ends up like a blob which my daughter struggles to get into.

Filling the beanbag was a little tricky and time consuming! (And messy) we used a jug in the end which worked, but it took a long time. Happy with it now it's filled up! Daughter loves it.

Not worth the money. Very expensive

The beanbag came in two parts where you have to pour the balls Into the beanbag, which is an absolute nightmare, even with two of you. It’s really not worth the money, it’s incredibly expensive for what it is.

Did not realize you had to fill your own bag with the beads supplied! What a mess with beads all over house. Should have been filled at warehouse not in customer's home.

I received this product and was not worth the money.

I received this product and was immediately disappointed with the presentation as the beanbag needs to be ‘assembled’. The polystyrene balls is in a separate bag to the casing, and despite best efforts, it is a very messy exercise as the filling goes everywhere. At this price, I would have expected the bean bag to come ready for use. The material of the casing was also quite poor and does not have the quality I would expect for >£100. I had then decided to return for a refund, but have received no correspondence after nearly 2 weeks. VERY disappointing!

The time between ordering and delivery was good; however it was not clear from the photograph of the sofa how low to the ground it was.
