The Fieldcrest Structured Bean Bag chair is really nice. I have teenage sons and they have been using it while playing video games. Even slouching the back hold it's form. The sides also keep their shape sitting in it. I haven't washed the cover yet, but I have wiped it down. The cover looks easy to take off, just unzip it and remove. No problems with stains. The styrofoam beads are larger which I'm sure helps the chair to keep it's shape. This chair is not heavy at all. Very easy to move it around. This Fieldcrest Bean Bag chair really is a nice chair for casual sitting around in it.
