Review of the Sumo Omni

When is a beanbag more than a beanbag? When Chelsey is sitting in it :crazy:
What we needed was something to make gaming a comfortable affair that didn't require moving heavy furniture around, that was portable (we could put it away to make the living room presentable for company), and could withstand two kids, a dog, a cat, and a big gaming dad.

    I've been looking for a beanbag that's not filled with soft Styrofoam pieces, but with harder, smaller...beans. These are filled with the former, correct? Could you give an estimate of their diameter?

    Diameter? I'll try to do that today when I get back home.. These are harder, I mean the thing keeps its shape.

    "It's stiff enough to hold its shape but soft enough to be comfortable."
    That's what she said!

    If I wasn't in chi-Town...and married... I'd be willing to protect her from all the attention.


    As for the review... GREAT WORK. All the points that I would need to know, you answered. Great review.


    One question, does the chair have two liners, and is the inner cover water proof or just the outer one? Is the outer cover machine washable?

    I don't think you'd need to wash the outer cover. It's pretty much liquid repellent. I think it would be too stiff to wash - and I doubt there's even a "cover" - I think the material itself is the bag. The velcro is so strong, I would need pliers to pry it apart to see what's in there, and I don't wanna tear apart my bag :D

    How much are they?

    /edit: nm I see $130. Lesson learned. First read the review then check out the model.

    They are NOT ****ty! I personally thought you were an actual model for Sumo, then everyone started talking about it and made me personally wonder ;)

    Chelsey is a peeping tom. she is the number one reason I moved all my gear downstairs. I used to look up in the window and across the driveways and see the blinds open next door and a CREEPY PAIR OF EYES STARTING ACROSS AT ME. And then an AIM window would pop up: "Boo" she would say.

    :eek3:
