Product Review: SumoSac
June 22nd, 2008 Filed in: Reviews Jump to comments
Once again Sumo Lounge has launched another ingenious product: the SumoSac (super size bean bag). I received a SumoSac couple weeks ago for product review and I gotta tell you, it is one of the most comfortable bean-bag chair I have ever sat in. The SumoSac is a large suede sac filled with shredded furniture grade urethane foam. In addition to its comfort, the Sumosac is stylish and practical. The size of the sac is more than enough space to accommodate two people simultaneously, which is great for playing video games or just chilling with friends. The suede cover is soft and comfy, unlike the nylon cover of the Omni I got a while back. Best of all, it is removable so cleaning is not problem at all. For more details please visit their website.

Sumo, indeed! That thing looks monstrous. I haven’t heard of it until now. My old bean-bag chair wore out a few years ago, this sumo thing looks like it might just replace it. Good timing.

This is a little dubious Nick… i mean, i’m sure it’s a lovely product, but you’re coming across a little sycophantic, especially since this has been your first post in about 3 months. but maybe i’m being a little harsh because, damn you, now i want one!

My family has something similar that an aunt made for us kids 20+ years ago, and it’s great. The only problem now is that there is a bit of an argument of who lays claim to “Big Blue” since all the kids are grown up. I suppose I can buy off my brother and sister with one of these!
June 22nd, 2008 at 7:54 am
Thanks for the tip.
I was looking for something like this for a while, so I will try the Omni first then I’ll definately go for this one.
Thanks again.

Looks comfy, there’s nothing better than slumping into a big bean bag at times

I remember sitting on one wuite some time ago. Not that comfortable though.
June 22nd, 2008 at 3:34 pm
Excellent product! For european visitors, they can look for a fatboy which is nearly excactly the same idea.
By the way, Nick, I have to say you are one of the greatest designer I follow on Internet. I am impressed!
June 23rd, 2008 at 6:14 am
omg you’re alive :o
oh yeah gotta try the super sized bean bag, looks awesome.
June 23rd, 2008 at 2:55 pm
Good Deal. I’m not sure about comfy that is, however, I know chicks enjoy sitting on my sumo sac!
June 24th, 2008 at 9:57 am
It looks nice and comfortable!
June 25th, 2008 at 12:23 pm
Wow it has been such a long time since you’ve posted… I am looking forward to see more of your portfolio work and learn some new design stuff….

Great to see you back online again. Boy that lounge looks the goods! Are you coming up with any new design features (apart from lounges) in the near future?
June 26th, 2008 at 5:20 am
Good to see a new post here after such a long time. Enjoy your time trying out a new bean bag.
June 26th, 2008 at 6:41 am
Good to see you back online. Comfy bean bag you have there, I am looking forward to more of your articles!

Great to see new post. Hope to see more regularly. :)
June 26th, 2008 at 3:23 pm
It looks nice
June 26th, 2008 at 4:51 pm
Thanks to everyone for following up my blog & work. The reason why I’m not posting new blog here because I’m planning to redesign my site and I might re-construct entire site.
June 26th, 2008 at 8:59 pm
That may be just what our bedroom needs… *clicks*
June 26th, 2008 at 9:13 pm
Any one know if these are available in the UK.
I’d Love one.
June 27th, 2008 at 8:35 am
Thanks Nick for the review of this product. I haven’t seen something like this before. I wonder if this can be bought from eBay.
June 27th, 2008 at 10:43 am
I don’t like bean-bag type chairs that much. I think they are good for kids as they can jump on them. But being that close to the ground, not for me!
June 30th, 2008 at 11:44 pm
Wow, I wait 2 months for a post from my favorite designer and I get a bean bag review?!
Haha, well nice review anyway. Looking forward to the new site.
July 1st, 2008 at 5:57 pm
I’ve tried these out before and they are very comfortable. I wonder if this is a pay-per-post article?
July 7th, 2008 at 3:31 pm
Hey! I’ve got one at my place as well, and it’s great. It feels like you’re floating arround :)
When can we expect the redesign to be released?
July 11th, 2008 at 8:16 am
So… you’ve got a big, soft sac? Swell.
July 12th, 2008 at 1:10 am

July 16th, 2008 at 1:07 pm
Hello Nick, we would be hoping more informations on ur site rather than these off the topic ones.
July 16th, 2008 at 4:22 pm
How do you get put onto the list for product reviews? :D I’d love to get some free shit once in a while to fill out a questionnaire.

I wonder if you got paid for posting this review.. Especially after comparing comments no 1 and 27. They’re the same. And some other things as well.. Just wondering, there is nothing wrong in getting paid for such things of course :)
August 4th, 2008 at 11:27 am
This is the second positive review I’ve read about the SumoSac, can’t wait to get one of my own! And at such a great price!
Really.
August 4th, 2008 at 1:52 pm
@Lonasinho - No, I don’t get paid for this review. However, the bean bag was free.
August 5th, 2008 at 4:58 pm
Isnt this just a cheaper & bigger copy of the “Fatboy” bean bags?
August 6th, 2008 at 12:25 pm

September 3rd, 2008 at 3:24 pm
You promise you didn’t get paid? I could have sworn I read the exact same review at Authentic Boredom a few weeks back.
September 7th, 2008 at 2:21 pm
you have a fantastic resourse website! i do enjoy browsing around, just a wonderful job i have to say!
October 3rd, 2008 at 8:18 am
I agree this chair really looks comfortable and depending on the person sitting on it-it can also look pretty cool. But I have seen much more eccentric seating possibilities than this.
On www.ridiculousdesignrules.com you can vote now for the most ridiculous design. 4 are up for the vote. Ball Chair, Pat Conley II, Hand Chair and the ultimate Max the bath tub chaise. Check it out it’s worth it. You can also sent in images of seating possibilities that seem even more ridiculous than the displayed ones.

Don’t we all love bean bags.
I use mine everyday in front of the tele and it is the best thing.
