The idea of sinking into a soft, conforming bean bag bed for a comfortable night’s sleep or a quick nap is undeniably appealing. However, a few factors should be taken into consideration before choosing to sleep on a bean bag. This article explores the feasibility of sleeping in a bean bag and recommends alternative arrangements that can provide both comfort and support for healthy sleep setups.
Bean Bags for Sleep
While bean bags are comfortable for short periods, they do not offer the support necessary for proper spinal alignment and may cause back pain, stiffness, and posture problems if used regularly. Additionally, sleeping on a bean bag can be difficult for individuals with mobility issues, as it can be challenging to get in and out of the bag. Ultimately, a bean bag is not an ideal sleeping surface for adults or children of any age.
A popular riff on the traditional bean bag chair is the Cordaroy’s convertible bean bag bed, which consists of a chair cover that can be laid flat to create a temporary mattress. While these beds can be a comfortable option for family sleepovers, they should not be relied upon as a primary mattress due to the lumpiness and uneven firmness of the fill.
Furthermore, experts do not recommend letting infants and toddlers sleep on bean bags due to the potential suffocation hazards. In addition, sleeping on a bean bag can cause discomfort and pressure points for individuals with arthritis or other mobility issues.
