The "beans" smell musty
January 16, 2013
I'm not sure if the insert I received for my bean bags were sitting in an old, damp warehouse for a year but our styrofoam beads have an awful musty smell. It took a while for me to figure out what was smelling up the room until I put my nose up to the bean bag. Unfortunately you can't wash them and air fresheners don't seem to work. So - while the canvas holder is nice and comfortable, the chairs hardly get any use due to the smell.

Great quality
November 16, 2012
First as an FYI - if you get it embroidered the bean bag and cover come in two shipments.
The cover is wonderful and the zipper comes with a lock to prevent young children from digging inside.
The quality is fantastic and my 2 1/2 year old son loves it.

Good Quality - insert could be better
November 21, 2011
Read the reviews, and shopped around, but bought 2 of these anyway. This one for my son, and the green dot for my daughter. The embroidery on hers was coming undone out of the box, but PBK replaced it right away, no problem, no charge. His looked great. It is filled with chopped up stryofoam, not stryofoam beads or beans. It is also over filled. I took out a trash bag and half from each of them, for use once they start to get flat. So now they are perfect for snuggling into, and I won't have to buy replacement foam in a few years. However I do wish PBK would fill with actual beans. I am all for recycling and appreciate the effort, but these would be much more comfy with stryofoam beads or beans in them.

WARNING about the INSERT -
September 30, 2011
The exterior material used to fabricate the cover is very, very nice. Definitely what I expect from PB. However, the material that is used to manufacture the "beans" inside the insert is completely substandard. Every time I go to wash the cover (about every 2-3 weeks) and take it off the insert, my den is filled with small particles from the disintegrating beans. It looks like snow -- and is a particulary annoying mess since it sticks to everything! Even the washing machine and dryer get filled with this dust that clings to the inside of the cover. PB sent me a replacement insert, just in case there was a manfacturing defect with mine, and that box was filled with the same "snow" as soon as I opened it. For this much money, PB should use better materials that do not create this messy by-product. I love PB products, but this one is not worth the trouble and mess.

My 12 year old loves his bean bag chair! He plays video games and watches tv and family movie night in it. He also LOVES teading in it because its so comfortable.
I love the removable shell so if it gets spilled on it washrs right out and fits back on as if it were new! Great choice if you buy one.

BEANBAG CHAIR
August 31, 2011
The cover was cute and looks durable. The insert is as hard as a box of rocks. The ad said it is soft and tough, that a child could sink into it. It WAS tough but NOT soft and there is no sinking into, only sitting on top of.

Great Seat
June 7, 2011
This is a great seat. Larger than I expected. The color is vibrant and the stitching of my son's name was just beautiful. The only thing that was annoying is the cover came seperately from the beanbag so I had to wait for that shipment. Other than that it was delivered quickly and the personalization was done correctly. I would recommend this to anyone. My son loves it. He uses it while he is watching tv.

I bought it for my 2 year olds bedroom but he hasn't used it as much as I thought he would. I'm guessing w time he'll start using it more. I feel it may be a bit too big and stiff for his size. But I still like it in his room and I can use it while I play with him.

Inside stuffing is too hard
May 9, 2011
We gave this to our 4-year-old grandson for his birthday. It wasn't like a bean bag, it was like giving him a huge, round rock to sit on. I took out about 1/3 of the filling..and we tried again. The stuffing looked like chunks of shredded styrofoam.
We ended up BUYING a bean bag chair (filled with round pellets) for about $30. We emptied the PB beanbag and put the cheap bean bag's filler into the PB chair.
So, now my Grandson has a nice beanbag...nice red monogrammed cover with softer, round pellets that can be shaped to fit his body.
Maybe PB needs to use (or go back to) the round pellets that fill most bean bags. We want something softer and something that a child can "sink" into and be comfortable.
By the way, I have ordered many items (recently) from the PB and I love them...this is the first item that I have really been disappointed in.

Christmas Hit!
January 5, 2011
I got this for my godson/nephew who is 13 months old. I got it monogrammed. When it arrived, the box was completely opened but it was unharmed. You have to assemble it yourself which was an absolute pain. You have to stuff the giant insides into the tiny hole in the cover. And, loose little beans fly everywhere, so be prepared. That said, the cover was beautiful. I was able to then stuff the assembled beanbag into one of those giant Christmas gift bags. Once opened though, the kid LOVED the beanbag. He toddled over to it, flopped on it, and his parents "tossed" him on it. It was so fun to watch. His older sister loved it, too. She is almost three and could enjoy it by herself. It's probably better suited for a kid that's at least three, but the one year old love it, too! I highly recommend this beanbag for the kids. It also has a little lock on the zipper so I guess your kids can't unzip it, get in, and suffocate or whatever. A perfect gift. I'd recommend it to everyone.

Really liked it! My 2yr old son received it for Christmas, and loves it! He needs to break it in some, because it's not to soft now, but over time it will break down into a bean bag feel!

Ok, not what I hoped
December 18, 2010
This is much less comfortable than I was expecting. I had read other reviews that said it was over-filled but thought that might be a good thing--it's not. It's hard to settle in and get cozy because it's pretty stiff. On the plus, it seems very sturdy and well-made.

Solid Anywhere Beanbag
August 6, 2010
The beanbag is cute, and Pottery Barn is a pleasure to deal with and ships super fast. The cover is rougher than I expected, but maybe it will soften up with washings. The insert, as expected has too many beans to really snuggle down into it, but we haven't tackled taking some out yet. All in all, it's a decent beanbag, but not quite as soft and nice as I had envisioned.

I bought one for each of my young children for their new playroom. My 5 year old really loves that it has her name on it. The fabric is great and I am sure will withstand the test of time. I did not order the insert as they will do double duty as stuffed animal storage- we have a lot of stuffed animals!!!

Sturdy and fun, a little small for grown-ups
January 5, 2010
The red is a great color and they look great personalized. They are sturdy and fun, but light enough for the kids to pull them around the room where they want to put them. Not really big enough for grown-ups to get comfortable on.

Bean Bag chair
January 4, 2010
This is way too big for little kids; adults could sit on this comfortably. The picture in the catalog is misleading to me. It is also pricey compared to other products.
