Designer “Urban Lounge Gear” company, Sumo have been kind enough to send me one of their over-sized bean bags for review purposes. I say bean bag, that really doesn’t do this thing justice …
The picture above doesn’t really convey how large the Omni is, you will need a pretty sizeable lounge to house one of these comfortably – it’s huge!
The bean bag is made with nice thick nylon material which seems extremely tough, I haven’t had any annoying leakage of the polystyrene balls that I have had with bean bags in the past.
The Sumo website claims there is 10 different positions you can use this bean bag in, I found the most comfortable is to sit directly in it like its a chair (as pictured above), the bag sort of molds itself around you and feels very secure.
Overall the Sumo Omni is a stylish addition to the lounge, its a little big for my lounge to keep out all the time so I keep under the stairs but its excellent for when I want to relax in comfort and play some Xbox 360!
The Omni Sumo is available direct from Sumolounge for $129
Yes, it’s a brutal copy from Fatboy, even the name tag has been copied. I hate that stuff…
