Big Joe Fuf Foam Filled Bean Bag, King, Steel Gray Comfort Suede

Based on the few reviews, I was a little worried about making this purchase. But I ordered the last 7-Foot Fuf that Amazon had in stock on a Tuesday and received it 3 days later on Friday afternoon. I went with the Sierra Red since it was the only one in stock and was right under the 200 dollar mark. The color looks fine in our media room.The chair was shoved into a really long box, like 3 boxes taped together. But it was fully enclosed and protected from the elements. A little of the tape used for packaging did get on the fabric itself, but a rag with a little warm water got the sticky right off and it was only in two little places on the huge chair. And since it was already pretty large and un-vacuum sealed, it didn't have any odor at all that I saw mentioned in a few reviews on the 6-foot chair.It has taken 3 days for the chair to grow into a gigantic size (not sure if it's done yet or not), but we've used it since day one. Two regular sized women and a skinny friend all fit on this chair without touching while we watched a movie the Friday night it was delivered. We were all sitting in a reclined position, so it was being used like three recliners side by side that just happened to be close to the floor.On Saturday, two pretty large men used the chair to play video games and they had plenty of room without touching to sit. When one of them decided to sprall out, he took over the entire chair and used it as a bed pretty much.My main point is that it truly is huge. But it is a beanbag chair, so it naturally seems to stay in a huge ball sort of shape, not the couch-like one in the picture. Doesn't matter to us since we force it into whatever position we want it, but that was the only surprise so far. Also, I am a 5'2" 30-year-old lady myself with medium body strength and can man-handle this thing to wherever I want it. So it's big but still manageable.We had about 15-20 people over for a potluck that Saturday night it was used for video games, and at least 10 people flopped on it on and off over the evening. They all liked it a lot. Two or three people flat out loved it so much that they wanted to buy one when they get home. One friend has decided she wants one in several rooms of her house.Overall, I am on Day 3 of ownership since I am writing this review Sunday afternoon, and I am super happy. I will update this a few months down to road. Good luck!UPDATE: It's now March 2013 and we are still loving our Fuf. :-) Two months in and no rips or tears, flopped on daily by 30 year old kids (yeah, that's us...jumping on it from a few feet out like a big pile of leaves...), and even our Pug and Dachshund jump onto it to sit with us with no problems. Our potluck friends jump on this thing every week too. The seam along the side is still holding up, but I will keep an eye on it based on the other reviews. We've even used it as a guest bed 3 times. It isn't super supportive like a mattress, but it is a cushy bean bag chair. If you need more support, they do sell the filling separately so you can beef it up a bit. I like being surrounded by my big red tomato of Fuf, so we are probably not going to add any more filling unless it gets too flat with time. I just need it to be comfortable and keep my butt off the floor.UPDATE: It's now December 2015 and this was an excellent purchase. Still my favorite sitting spot in the media room and we've bought 4 media recliners in the last year. This is simply more comfortable for me. It's the only sitting place upstairs that people call dibs on. Two adults easily share it without touching and 3-4 adults fit but you have to like each other. ;-) It's held up through the past few years with no problems. I'm impressed and would buy this again.UPDATE: It's now July 2016 and new comments have convinced me to open up our "tomato" Fuf to see what it's filled with. Ours is just filled with shredded memory foam. Still plumps up, still is the most popular seat in the house, and still holds 2 adults super easily and 3-4 when we pile on (and we aren't small people). No real change in the last 6 months. No tears and the seam is still perfect and both zippers work (one zipper has to be unzipped the whole way to get to the other to then unzip and check out the filling). So my current suggestion is to totally buy a 7 ft one if you can and then make sure it's the real deal when it arrives.

I DONT SEE WHY EVERYONE HATES THIS! I LOVE IT! ready for some giggles?on the day I received this bag I was thinking hard about my decision...why? because everyone says its stinks and its hard and not comfy. I paid 200 dollars for this sack of junk I thought? nope. this chair is extremely comfy. I could not wait for my bean bag to arrive. I had bought this because my friend paid $280 for a blue bean bag. I loved hers. so the day it came, I remembered my friend saying open it where you want it" well, my place I wanted it was at the top of my steps and I decided that its was WAY to exciting to wait until someone arrived to help me...so. so. so. I opened it downstairs...oops... this bean bag was already tearing the box when I got it. that means when I opened it, it expanded RIGHT TO ITS FULL SIZE! right there! it didn't expand any more over a week! it had grown to its full size right downstairs...right where I didn't want it. the my mom was coming home in about only 30 minutes and she would be mad! so I tried shoving this thing up TWO STEPS! and guess what? it wouldn't even fit through the doorway to the steps. oh no. I knew this would happen, I knew this would because I tried moving my friends bean bag. together, me and 5 other 14 yr olds tried shoving this bean bag down her hall. it got stuck several times. we managed to get the bean bag into her living room. where we were going to watch a movie. we would have to move it back into her room tomorrow...,THE NEXT DAY WE GOT UP AND STARTED PULLING AND PUSHING! the darn thing wouldn't go back down her hall way. they even moved they 500 lbs of couch to try to fit this sack down the hall...didn't work. the bean bag is still in her living room, and will be there forever...or at least until she empties it out...back to the story: so it expanded right there...all 7 feet of it! when my mom got home, she was furious. I was disappointed that I didn't listen to my thoughts and just opened it right there. together my dad, my mom, me, and my 2 brothers, and my 4 friends, all tried to push this up the steps. it took 2 1/2 hours to get it half way up the steps. another 2 1/2 hours to make it up the other half and down the hallway, and finally, into my room. now, here is the worst part. I measured 8.5 feet for this bean bag to fir into my room....no problem right? it was only supposed to be 7 feet. instead, it must have AT LEAST measured 9.5 feet. the stupid thing didn't even fit in my bed room! wow. just wow. we spent the whole day getting the bean bag up there and now it wont even fit. I guess it was because of all the fufing. so. now what? I would have to return it... no box would contain this beautiful giant. so, of course we chatted with amazon. they said that we would NOT receive our money back. so we kept it. we put it in our living room. it didn't look right in there, though. the bean bag was black but we had white carpets, peachy walls, and a white ceiling. the black looked terrible. so we tried shoving this bag back up to my room again and moved all of my belongings around. its literally looked like a big, black, carpet in my room! no matter where you went in my room, you were on the bean bag. you can imagine will everyone stepping on it, it would get dirty right? correct. all we did to clean it was vacuum it and spot clean it with oxy clean. next, we put a blanket on it so that next time, it wouldn't get as dirty. you would this that all of this story happened over maybe a month or 2 right? nope, this whole thing happened in just 1 week and 1 day. I bet your wondering why me and my friend got our bean bags so expensive? well, me and my friend paid extra to ACTUALLY GET MEMORY FOAM IN OUR BEAN BAGS! a lot of money. we also paid for extra fast shipping. how did we do this you may ask? we contacted amazon before our purchase! this bean bag is so comfy and it basically replaces my bed, although it is kind of weird thinking that I am sleeping over ppls dirty feet but whatever.... im trying to say this who "adventure" I had with this bean bag was exciting and I love this EXTREMELY comfy bean bag! :) :) :) <3

Product arrived with a small hole (2”) in the seam which is a bit disappointing. This is our second one and all in all it is a great product. The foam piece filler ends up fluffing to an enormous size and is surprisingly comfortable. Easily fits an adult. Our kids just love them.

Not nearly as cushiony/ firm as suggested on the product photo. This is not a styrofoam filled bag but a foam chunk filled bag. I sank in all the way almost to the floor, the product does not offer the bottom or back support that is suggested in the photo. The microfiber causes static and attracts dust.

“King” size fuf... not even close to what was described. Received my item and it is way smaller than advertised. The king is advertised as 54*54*42” and the item I received is only 48*48*22” which is even smaller than the large? The large is supposed to be 48*48*32 so I don’t even know what size they sent me. The label says king but the dimensions do not.It’s also not even very comfy. As some reviewers have commented, it’s lumpy. The chunks of foam inside are too big and I can feel them poking me in the back. I plopped down in it to test it and sunk all the way down. My butt hit the floor, and I’m only 130lbs. So word of caution, sit gently on this thing. It did bounce back up so I’m not totally sitting on the floor but I definitely thumped when I first plopped down. Which it’s hard not to plop because it’s puffed up when you start and then it basically gives out under you.Furthermore, the “King size fuf in cocoa Lenox” that I received doesn’t even have a washable removable cover as everyone told me. As a pet owner and general klutz that is not gonna work for me. It’s just got a double zipper straight to the foam which is already leaking out around the zippers and making little foam fluffs on the cover when it arrived.Super disappointed. I will be returning this product as soon as I can figure out how to get such a giant box to the post office. Luckily, it didn’t ship vacuum sealed, so I should be able to cram it back into the box it came in without too much of a problem...

Good

This thing is maaassive. I ordered the king, and oh man. It is also very full, soo much filling. Fully fluffed up it is probably 3 feet tall.Love it.
