I Tried A Lovesac Bean Bag and It Feels Like You're Sitting on a Cloud (2024)

I’m a creature of habit and comfort inmy home.Ifmy husband is sitting in my go-to spot on thecouch, I have no qualms aboutaskinghim toscootch.(Moreoften than not, healreadyknowsnot to sit there.)All this to say that I wasn'tdying totry out anewbean bag chairfor work—that is,until I fellintothe warm, fluffy embrace of theLovesac Supersacfor the first time.

Lovesac is primarily known for its huge bean bags (aka sacs) andcouches, soit's safe to say thatthey have agoodgrasp on comfort. The sacs come in multiple sizes: theCitysac(was $400, now $340),Moviesac(was $575, now $489),Pillowsac(was $450, now $383),Supersac(was $700, now $595) andThe Big One(was $900, now $765). They’re eachsized byhow many people couldtheoreticallyfit on one, but let me be very clear, in order to fit on thesesacswith other people, you must enjoy cuddling because they aren’t made forpersonal space.

Each sac hasdifferent cover options,including chenille and velvet, butthe Phur onesaremy personal favorite because they’re so plush. I also got the matchingSquattoman(afootrest) with mine, and I find itto besuper usefulforproppingmy feet up for extra support. The footrest has the same Phur cover but it's built with a very firm structure. Lovesac Supersacs inserts have a lifetime guarantee which means you can probably have this thing for the rest of your life. Iwon’t do thegirl mathfor you to justify the purchase, but it breaks down to adigestibledaily price, which makes total sense if you ask us.And when you’re ready to buy anew coverfor your sac,they start at just $275.

Sure, it’s essentiallyjusta bean bag lounger, sothere aren’t a bunch of high-techfeatures to it,butlet’s talksomespecifics. The Supersac is about five-feet wide and nearly four-feet tall.Itclaims to fit twotothree people anditcomes in at a whopping 75-pounds. You can really feel the weight and density of this bean bagwhen youdecide you want todrag it toa different room;the flip side is that it really does feel sturdy and supportive when you're snuggled up in it.

Here's anotherthing about the Supersac: It willeventuallymold toyour body or bodies. So, if youtend to sit in it by yourself and your partner decides to join you in it for an upcoming movie night,it may need a littlefluffing beforehand, sothe filling is moreevenly spread out.Ditto goes for ityou havesmallchildren.

On that note, thebest part about the Lovesac Supersacis that itgets better with time. I’ve hadminefor nearly six months and thelonger I use it, the softer the cover gets andthe comfier the sac gets,as the filling gets more broken up and easier to move around (aka easier to fluff). We have our Supersac in our baby’s nurserybecauseIfind that it'scozy for nursing and not difficult to get out of while holding my baby.

As a commerce editor, I have had a lot of packages, big and small, delivered to my house, and nothing hasever arrived aswell packagedas theLovesac Supersac. The sac insert came in a Lovesac branded blue canvas bag that was very durable. And as you could imagine, the bag for a 75-pound, five-foot-tall bean bagwasquitelarge.Think two giant hockey gear bags in one with an industrial zipper that could probably hold back the Hoover Dam. If you get your Supersac and aren’t fully in love, you get to try it out for 60 days and if it’s not for you, you can return it for a refund. Plus, you get free shipping, too.

As far as assembly goes, you basically take the beanbag out of thezipperedbag, put thecover on, fluff it up, and then, promptly jump into it.It took us about 20 minutes to get our Supersac cover on, fluffed and ready to sit in.

For me, this cozy furniture piece is somethingmy family and I will love and use for a long time. My husband and I like to cuddle on ittowatch moviestogether andsomeday,I thinkmy son is going to love jumping into it when he plays or to read a book with mama before bedtime.

Yes, it is expensive, but I know people who have had their Lovesac sacs for years and years, and the washable coverkeeps it in good condition. If you’re in the market forsomething cozy for your space, I recommend grabbing one ofthese plush seats.Just make sure you measure where you want to put it firstbecauseyou’ll be shocked at how big it is. It sits nicely in the corner of my son’s room and everyone who tries it out says the same thing, “AhI have to get one of these for my house,” so yeah, it’s definitely worth it if you ask me.
