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.

Nice but need more filling

Outer material and colour is as described, delivery was quick. It wasn’t easy to get the filling into the bag and they are quite flat so need more filling

It’s a great product , the only thing is

It’s a great product , but I didn’t know the filling and cover is coming in the same box , but separated. I understand it helps to saves space in the box , but it was not easy to fill in 🙈

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.

Great product but no where near enough filling. Had to buy more to make it keep some shape. Provided two bags of beans. Could easily take four of those and it would still be loose.

My little girl is delighted with the chair, and it is good quality. However assembling it really is difficult, particularly if you don't have easy access to another adult to help!

The sofa bean bag is amazing. Really love it and it fits our space really well. I'm removing a star, as we had to fill it ourselves, as the beans came separately. We kinda expected that, for over £300, it would have come prefilled. It was a pretty messy job!

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.

Service and product good.

The service was good and the product was really nice and just what we wanted. I’ve dropped a star as I would have preferred the chair to have arrived completed and for us no to have to put the polystyrene beads in ourselves. It wasn’t as difficult as anticipated but would have saved on a huge plastic bag.

Lovely wee sofa but would be 5 stars if it had a liner so cover can be washed. Also brilliant if we didn't have to fill it when it arrived..it was easy to fill but still quite a lot of wastage.

The cushion cover was fantastic but…

The cushion cover was fantastic and well made, however, the inner pillow that we ordered extra didn’t really fill the cover, it was quite a bit smaller and don’t go to the corners

Don’t think we realised you had to fill the bean bag itself.

The bean bag itself is great

the bean bag itself is great, having to put the beans in ourselves - not so great. I don't know why the beans did not come already inside the bag and why we had to put them in ourselves. I cannot see the advantage shipping wise.
