Easy to unpack. The beanbag expands over a few days so it takes a while to get to full size. The outside material is soft and a nice shade of gray. The beanbag is filled foam pieces which feel super soft and squishy to lay on. The bean bag isn’t super firm, and you sink down quite a bit when you sit in it. However, it’s so large that there’s still plenty of cushion left under you. You’ll need a big space for this chair as it is several feet wide. I wish that it provided more support in the back. The way it forms around you when you sit doesn’t allow for much support behind your back or head. Great for kids but maybe not for adults.
