You may have a hard time rationalizing spending that much on a bean bag chair - though I do think we have proven Sacs are way more than that - but at least we know the Sacco designers can rest easy knowing their chair has been restored to its former glory. The Sumo, Comfy and other competitors Ive seen seem to wear too easily. Wait for their crazy sales where its almost 70 off. Even the smallest adult size, or "CitySac" will run you $550. A CitySac (which has gotten heavy use) and a SuperSac which still resides packed up not opened in my basement. The Big One has a price tag to match its size: $1,300. Forget the couch, why not have all your friends pile onto a giant pillow? Well, one reason might be the price. At eight feet wide, the biggest sac, known simply as " The Big One," can comfortably sit three adults. Lovesac has created foam-filled pillow chairs in six different sizes. The comfort offered by the sac goes beyond its insides: You can order your sac in super plush "phur" or velvet in a variety of cozy colors. That's because sacs are filled with premium shredded Durafoam which absorbs body weight evenly for ideal support of your now-grown-up back. While Lovesac may evoke nostalgia that comes with that bean bag look, these are so much more comfortable than the blobs that sat in your college dorm room. Now, though, it seems the bean bag may be climbing its way back to the top thanks to Lovesac. The Vitra Design Museum claims the bean bag was literally "an attack on good bourgeois taste." After 1968, the chair devolved into a mass-produced piece of furniture only fit for a kid-friendly basement. One of its first iterations, the Sacco, was designed as a "stick it to the man" piece of furniture and Sacco's Italian designers took inspiration for the chair from the nonconformist spirit of the 1960s. The bean bag chair is way more than just a mass of beads from which you played your Nintendo 64 as a kid.
