Beanbag chairs

[Walsingham]

A few month ago, being rather busy, and having just started buying my own furniture I purchased a couple of beanbag chairs from Dunelm Mill (UK store only, I think). These thumb shaped doohickeys are without question the most comfortable, and most dangerous gaming chairs in the history of mankind. The most important thing being that they have a headrest as well as a bumrest. Once in them it is almost impossible to leave.

 

My key problem is that the polystyrene foam beads inside* have gone squashy and compacted. This, combined with the smell they give off, makes me want to stuff them with something else. I was wondering if we had any thoughts.

 

 

*I haven't checked this. Sometimes the odd smell they give off makes me think they are stuffed with tiny capsules of prussic acid.

You filthy filthy hippy.

You are obviously being poisoned by the Russians.

I've already expressed my preference for opening them and putting my feet inside in another thread. Anything else your flying solo on

I will ask around and let you know what comes up.

 

Edit:

 

Try www.beanbags.com or similar.

 

The usual beads are polystyrene.

 

Earthy sites talk about using dried food - perhaps even beans (who would have thunk it)!

 

:D

I like the dry beans plan. Then they can form part of my zombie survival plan.

Just don't get the bags wet after midnight...

I have one of the beanbags from Sumo. I sometimes sleep in it with a warm blanket on bottom and top.

 

Its awesome for just dragging from room to room for whatever purpose. Very Comfy.
