Bean Bag Chairs

Bean Bag Chairs with More Shape and Support

Bean bag chairs combine the relaxed comfort of a bean bag with a more defined seating shape. Raised backs, shaped sides and supportive seat areas can provide a more upright position than a traditional loose bean bag, making them a practical choice for everyday use.

They work well in living rooms, bedrooms, reading corners and other casual spaces where you want comfortable seating without the bulk of a conventional armchair. For more free-form seating, you can also browse our classic bean bags.

Comfortable Chairs for Reading, Gaming and Relaxing

The defined backrest on a bean bag chair makes it a good option for reading, watching TV or gaming for longer periods. Many designs hold their chair-like shape when you get up, while still moulding enough to remain soft and comfortable when seated.

For dedicated gaming setups, explore our gaming bean bags. If you are looking for more spacious seating, browse our large bean bags and extra-large bean bags.

Choosing the Right Bean Bag Chair

When choosing a bean bag chair, compare the overall width, depth and back height with the person who will use it and the space available. Compact chairs can work well in children's bedrooms and smaller rooms, while larger high-back models provide more space for teenagers and adults.

Materials and care instructions vary by design, so check the individual product page before ordering. Many chair-style bean bags also include a carry handle or strap, making them easier to move between rooms. All of our beanbags are shipped filled from our Irish warehouse and our beanbag range includes free delivery throughout Ireland.
