There are so many different types of bean bags in the market today, that it can get a bit confusing as to which type of bean bag is meant for what use. The different types of bean bags are designed for different purposes and places in a home or in an office.
Types Of Bean Bags
When purchasing a bean bag we often forget to keep the purpose of the bean bag in mind and fail to utilise a bean bag to its full capabilities. Find out which bean bag is right for you and your home.
Round Bean Bags
These are probably the most popular and common bean bags that are used across the world. These round bean bags are used for leisure purpose at homes and also in office spaces. They are used to casually lounge in, play video games or just relax in. The round bean bags are literally round in shape and come in varied sizes and materials. These are popularly used in offices for employees to relax in, in cafes with a casual setting or in living rooms as additional seating. These are best suitable for a casual setting and goes well with a colourful decor because round bean bags are available in various colours and prints. There are also different sizes of a bean bag so depending on the space you want to place your bean bag in and the usage, you can choose a smaller or a bigger bean bag.
L or Chair Shaped Bean Bags
Chair shaped bean bags are in the shape of a chair, so they have a larger back support and length than round bean bags. There is another variation in chair shaped bean bags called teardrop bean bags which have the back in the shape of a triangle. Both are quite comfortable and ideal seating options for a living room, office space or cafes. These bean bags are widely used in places and homes that are occupied by young adults and students. The main advantage that these type of bean bags provide over round bean bags is that an L shaped bean bag gives a sitting experience close to that of an actual chair.
Again, these are available in different sizes, colours and prints, so you can choose which one best suits your decor and seating requirements.
Large and Extra Large Bean Bags
Although, bean bags of all kinds are available in different sizes, a large or extra large bean bag is completely different. These are huge bean bags that have a larger seating capacity than a round or L shaped bean bag. They can fit up to two or more people on one bean bag. These can be used as outdoor bean bags to be placed in your patio, backyard or on the beach. They can also be used in living rooms and audio visual rooms, anywhere you want a comfortable, spacious seating. They are very comfortable and have a lot of space for two or more people to easily laze around and chill in. They also come in various colours and prints so you can choose these depending on your requirement and decor.
Square Bean Bags
This is another shape that bean bags are available in, apart from round bean bags. These are mainly used as a small table to keep things on or even be used for sitting. Keep in mind that square bean bags don’t have a backrest so this might not be a very comfortable seating option. So it’s better to have these for additional and extra seating and not as first choice of seating. These are also used as decorative pieces in homes, cafes, offices etc. These are also available in different sizes, colours and textures. So depending on the usage and decor you can choose the style which best suits your needs and requirements.
Conclusion
The bean bag market is now catering to different requirements and demands, so make sure that depending on your requirement, you get the appropriate bean bag to make it a comfortable option for seating. Bean bags are also a great, unique way of solving the dual purpose of decor and seating. A bean bag adds colour and works well to create a colourful and comfortable decor and setting, respectively, in homes and offices.
