Whether you’re looking for bean bag under 100 dollars to fill out your gaming room, want a seat to relax with friends or simply need comfortable seating for a family movie night, there are countless options. We spoke to interior designers Jennifer Gardner, Daniella Menachemson and Melanie Raver to create a list of the best cheap bean bag chairs.
Our top pick for a bean bag chair under $100 is the Sofa Sack, which features a microfiber cover that feels silky soft and comfy to the touch. It’s filled with shredded memory foam, which makes for an extremely plush seat that’s ideal for relaxing in. The chair is also durable thanks to double stitched seams and it’s easy to keep clean.
Another great option is the Big Joe Fuf, which has a sturdy Smart Max fabric that holds up well against wear and tear. It’s stuffed with a blend of CertiPUR-US certified foam and polyester fiber for a soft and supportive feel. It’s a bit smaller than our top choice but it’s still a great choice for kids, college students or anyone who wants a casual and lightweight seat that can be moved from room to room.
When choosing a cheap bean bag chair, pay attention to its size and dimensions. An oversized option may not fit in a small space, and a too-small chair can feel squishy. It’s also important to examine the filling material and choose one that will be comfortable for long periods of time. For example, a polystyrene beads chair might flatten out after a while, but furniture-grade foam like that used in the Xorbee loungers bounces right back.
