How to Pick the Perfect Bean Bag

A bean bag is a completely-sealed bag filled with either dried beans, PVC pellets or enlarged polystyrene. Bean bags are used for a wide variety of purposes, including balls for juggling props, hacky sack balls and even chairs. Find out how to pic the perfect bean bag chair.

1. First: Choosing a color

   In order to select the perfect bean bag chair, there are several things you must consider. These include the color, size and price of the chair. These chairs are available in almost any color you can imagine. You can find pink, green, black, white and even polka-dotted or zebra-patterned bean bag chairs, if you so desire. Take a look at your room, and choose a color that coordinates with the décor.

2. Second: Choosing a size

   Bean bag chairs also come in several different sizes. If you are buying the chair for a child, for example, you may want to buy a smaller one. There are many bean bag chairs on the market that have been specifically designed for children. You can also find gigantic, oversized chairs, as well as several sizes in between. Consider what size is most appropriate based on the space in the room and the needs of the person who will be using the chair.

3. Third: Choosing a price range

   Bean bag chairs vary dramatically in price. You can purchase a discounted bean bag chair for as little as $20, or as much as several hundred dollars. The price depends on the quality and the brand of the chair. Set a budget for your new chair, based on what you can afford.
