I actually have one of these. Great idea but the foam doesn’t hold up well under weight. I had to get 2 additional small boxes of foam. Like I said it fluffs up really good. Sit or lay on it as a bed and your practically on the floor. The kids like it. When they wake up they look like that gif with Homer Simpson being swallowed up in the trees.
@cengland0 wish I could watch it, might make a difference whether I buy or not; I’m traveling in India but faithfully checking in with Meh, and “This video contains content from BBTV_SonyPictures, who has blocked it in your country on copyright grounds.”
Love the concept of a beanbag that doubles as an occasional guest mattress, but this just doesn’t sound like it’s particularly comfortable either as beanbag or a mattress.
I think these come vacuum sealed – highly compressed. Are they going to be like those bamboo pillows Meh sold that after several months still feels like you’re sleeping on a brick?
Here’s a video on how to unpack it when you receive it.
I slept on a beanbag chair in 1974… UMM. I am 61 now, and I don’t care how comfortable it Might Be… My Waterbed rules, and I am NOT trading it in for this POS. TYVM… I can get an awesome waterbed for that price… MEH
I’m tempted to get one of these for when I have more guests over, but can’t justify the expense.
That said, I have a giant Lovesac and absolutely love it. It wasn’t cheap (to put it lightly), but it’s my favorite thing in the world. Incredibly comfortable for me, and works great as a couch for 1 or 2 guests. 95% of my waking time at home is spent in it.
@FrozenTrout We have a giant Lovesac too-- Bought back in the Woot days; Couldn’t justify a $200+ cover for our naked sac, so bought the “Sport Utility Cover” for ~$90. It’s a great chair, but just takes up too much space. Not sure if we need another that doubles as a bed… Especially not if only full size.
I’ve had one of these before and I can confirm they’re quite comfortable. Older bro bought one on impulse some 15yrs ago in Gainesville (Go Gators!) and that thing was the tits!! Way more comfortable for naps than a recliner or couch and they’re actually pretty big. We always put a queen fitted sheet on it and that seemed to hold it’s shape during sleeping. I always wanted to sleep on it instead of the bed or couch when visiting him. The covers used to be made with corduroy fabric but now I’m not sure what they’re made from. Hmm.
I get nieces and nephews coming over to stay occasionally, and since I only have 1 guest bed, and they really hate sleeping together… yup, in for one. Besides, teens love been bags, right? Now I can pretend I’m cool and hip. Or is it fleek? Snatched?? Meh…whatever…
Watched the episode. Lori took them to the cleaners!
So, not memory foam (calling it flexible is like saying water is wet), cost roughly $30 to make the full size which is only good for 1 SMALL adult. Lori gets a 40% margin for wholesale which brings this to $42. Shipping is going to be $15 or better for meh. So profits for meh are like $61.
@cengland0 Ahh man I though Meh had someone build a giant set with enormous replicas of foil-covered potatoes. Turns out it’s just photoshop! Slackers!
We got a ridiculously HUGE Xorbee a few years back and love that thing. It’s just the round, so no hide-away-bed. Now I wish there was. Don’t have enough room for both the Xorbee and one of these, though, and like others, I think my price point for an impulse buy would be closer to $50.
I really had to do a double take on the outfit worn by the body builder chick. At first I thought it was just some sort of really short pajama shirt.

@Enigma
@cengland0 yep, it that’s exactly!
@cengland0 @enigma Are you sure that’s Homer Simpson? I think it might be Sean Spicer…
@thismyusername
I just leased a new apartment, so I could use a stowable guest bed! Ordered.
I just leased a new apartment, so I’m dead broke and not yet clear on how much room I’ll have for a giant velveteen spheroid! Order cancelled.
I love this deal, and for $25 I’d buy one.
@DaveInSoCal I would go as high as $27.
@sammydog01 If you paid me $27, I’m still not sure I’d give this this Transformer furniture a home.
This is something I actually really like and can see myself using often. I am just too poor right now.

Meh couldn’t find the whole Shark Tank episode? I spent 15 seconds on Google and found it. It’s here:

@cengland0 came here to post the same thing…

When’s the next woot off, geez?
THOSE BICEPS PICS 2-4 WHAT’S YOUR LIFTING SECRET
@mwpalermo7 CRUSH WALNUTS IN VAGINA
@mwpalermo7 Lifting bean bags
@mwpalermo7 Carrying around 4 kids all day.
@mehcuda67 @awk lesson learned, don’t ask questions you don’t want the answer to
Would be great at around $50,but this is too high $ for an impulse buy…
The 70’s called and they want their chair back.
@norman8 They could chair less, really.
Damn if it wasn’t so expensive
Love the write up. Love Shark Tank.
But not this product. Too expensive and is probably bigger than any room in my house.
For those reasons, I’m out.
@JT954 Nice Shark Tank talk!
I’d just like to add my observation that the chick in pics 2-4 is fucking built. Did they run out of regular models and swing by the local gym?
@warpedrotors Makes me think this beanchairbedbag isn’t as light as they claim…
Interesting, but not $118 interesting.
Maybe $49-$59… $100+ meh.
Something different, thanks Meh!
I don’t need it, but thx!
No thanks, bean bag chairs give me gas.
@eeterrific You might have to eat a whole bottle of beano first.
Where was this when I was single? It could have saved me those rug burns. LOL
Looks Comfy
the fuck is this thing?

I hope the folks at cordaroys didn’t plow a fortune into that website they have. Meh.
I imagine it would be a total pain in the ass to go from bed to bag.
@cercopithecoid if you have a partner, it’s a pretty short time, once on bed, to your bag.
@TheDagda So my take is you no longer have a partner since it was a “short time” once you got in bed and they got to your bag?..no?

@Mandamm A waterbed? 1974 indeed.
Not no…but F no.
Anyone know what kind of beans in the bag?
Refried, maybe?
@Hanky Shredded polyurethane furniture foam, according to the Amazon seller.
@trisk Or you could have just looked at the specs above and it would have told you, “Filled with CertiPUR Shredded Foam”

That dude has some nice tits.
Ball sack bag…
the bean-bag iteration looks like a hairless scrotum.
@alacrity as do most things which are in the tan-through-brown color spectrum, spherical, and not covered in wiry hairs…?
I guess that’s not too many other things, though; fair point.
Want in NaugaHyde.
It’s really not bad. You fold the mattress part like a taco, then stuff it inside the cover. It fits very well in the cover.

Good for meh!
Still out though.
Definitely wouldn’t want to bring a date home to this thing.
That’s some sweet patootie in the last photo.

This was probably the original message before it was edited.
I’m spoiling the magic
@cengland0 Ahh man I though Meh had someone build a giant set with enormous replicas of foil-covered potatoes. Turns out it’s just photoshop! Slackers!
@awk Mehbe you’re right and the potato was photoshopped from the girl’s image. Those chives look pretty sketchy.
Anyone else notice that most of these on Amazon are sold by Woot?

I refuse to leave the 90s.
Good reason not to buy if the Shark Tank trolls like.
I want one… but I want the Queen size.
@gabrieljordan I actually kind of want two…
