Back in the day, as the kids say, no college dorm room was complete without a bean bag chair. That bean bag furniture traveled into lots of apartments and first homes for many college graduates, until after years of wear they broke down and were stored or discarded.

Since the first bean bag chairs was developed in 1969 by an Italian firm, the type of furniture has gone in and out of style, and is now making a major comeback in the 21st century. Today's casual lifestyles are ideal for the return of bean bag furniture, especially now that innovations in construction and design make it better than ever.

For decades bean bag furniture has been made of "beans" of polystyrene, more commonly known under the trade name Styrofoam®. It's the same kind of foam that makes coffee cups and the foam molds that protect consumer electronics. In fact, the preferred material for making bean bag furniture today is recycled foam, created by grinding up those protective molds and reforming them into "beans." This process makes bean bag furniture as earth-friendly as it is supportive and comfortable, since the molds would otherwise ...
... end up already-overstuffed landfills.

What really makes bean bags popular today are the ranges of styles now available. Bean bag sofas and loungers in particular have taken the place of multiple bean bag chairs as ways to have fashionable, fun furniture that also provides comfort and great support.

One excellent example of the latest in bean bag sofa designs is OneUp Innovations' 7.5 ft. Jaxx Lounger. As the manufacturer promises, the Jaxx Lounger gives much more plush, portable comfort than a standard loveseat or recliner. This bean bag sofa adjusts with the sitter's every movement, providing comfort and support in any sitting or lounging position. Some users even fall asleep on their Jaxx loungers and dream blissfully through the night.

The 7.5-ft. model seats one or two comfortably, and three if they're cozy. They are also 6-ft. and 6.5-ft. models for those with smaller living spaces such as lofts and apartments. The removable outer cover comes in microfiber, microsuede, pebble and brushed twill fabrics in a wide range of colors, along with an inner liner and childproof zipper for easy cleaning. Manufactured in the USA, each bean bag sofa is custom made and comes with a one-year guarantee on workmanship and material.

Another option for a bean bag sofa is Comfort Research's 7-ft. XXL "FUF" bean bag chair. Comfort Research has patented a type of urethane foam that supports and cuddles the user as it resists breaking down with use. What's more, this bean bag sofa can be "foofed" back into shape with some twisting and rolling, so that every seat feels like a first-time experience. With an optional inner liner for easier cleaning, the double-stitched cover has twin zippers for safety and comes in suede, cotton twill, vinyl and faux denim in a wide array of colors. This beautiful bean bag sofa can be spot-cleaned, machine washed or dry cleaned depending on its cover fabric.

Either of these sofas, along with other models, proves that bean bag furniture has earned its rightful place in today's fun and casual home decor.
