Bean bags are the ultimate in comfy, casual furniture and are amazingly versatile. Bean bag furniture can be used to furnish almost any room in your home, from the family room or den to a kids’ playroom. Here are some advantages of bean bags:

1. Bean bags are incredibly comfortable and soft, providing a great place to relax and unwind. Whether you’re enjoying a relaxing drink with close friends, watching a favorite show on TV, or reading the kids a bedtime story, a bean bag is a wonderful place to sit and be snug.

Bean bag chairs were the craze of the 70s. The reason they have made such a big comeback recently is really a no-brainer. Versatile, long wearing, “child proof,” portable, practical and fun are keywords used in describing bean bag chairs, and why they remain popular in so many households – especially those with children.

Decorating can be a big challenge in today’s world. There are all kinds of decorating styles from which to choose. Each room of your home can have a different style including ecclectic, traditional, modern, or formal. But for those casual and impromptu rooms and occasions, a bean bag chair can be just what’s needed. Choosing the right shape, material, size and color are very important.

Noted Italian designers developed the first bean bag chairs in the 1960’s. Their creation was called the ‘Sacco’, and was at the time described as an ‘anatomical armchair’. It became the first mass produced bean bag furniture. Just like its counterpart these days, the Sacco was filled with polystyrene beads that make them lightweight and easy to mold to the shape of the body. While enhancements to its size and shape have occurred over time, in general the bean bag chair form remains true to the design of the Sacco from the 1960’s.

Bean bag chairs still remain one of the worlds many mysteries. How did they come about, who or what inspired the shape, are they safe, and where can I get one? To answer these questions and more we need to look into the 1960’s when this design was first uncovered. Created by an Italian design and first called a “Sacco”, the bean bag chairs became greatly popular and then mass-produced. Today this design is still remains basically the same with exception to the fabric, filling, the original headrest and additional safety features.
