Play is endless!
We love our Members Mark Kids Explorer Sofas! We loved our first one so much we ordered a second one! We use these play sofas every single day! We also keep one beside my 2 year olds bed so if he falls out of bed at night he has something soft to land on! It’s the perfect size and the options for play are endless it can be an obstacle course, a fort, a ramp for cars, literally anything! They are also really easy to clean we have had a few spills and accidents on ours and they have cleaned up amazingly! Would highly recommend!
Dangerous zipper!
We love this. But the zippers are terrible! We have a 3yr old and two 1 yr olds. The zippers are out in the open with a big dangly tie on them that invites littles to unzip it over and over. And the zipper is SHARP. When they slide down it or throw it around while playing the zipper cuts them on the face etc. PLEASE SOMEHOW CONCEAL THE ZIPPER BETTER! (It won’t let me upload a picture.)
We appreciate your feedback, AK. For safety reasons, we do want to note that this product is not designed or intended for use by children 3 years old and younger.
Great, but zippers broke
My kids LOVE these, we have 2 sets and have had them for a little over a month. The only thing is the zippers break. I wish they had new covers you could buy, I don't want to spend all of the money for new sets, when the zippers are the only problem.
Great play sofa for except for the zipper…
We bought this play sofa a few months ago. It’s definitely cheaper than the Nugget which we love! My sister-in-law has the Nugget and I don’t notice much of a difference. The Nugget’s foam might be a little bit thicker but that’s all that I’ve noticed. We’ve had lots of fun playing with this and building forts! However, I’ve washed the covers 2 maybe 3 times and the zipper on the bigger foam pieces is already shot. We have to buy new covers not even a couple months after purchasing the sofa. I’ve seen other reviews that mention the zipper falls apart easily. If Sam’s Club fixes the zipper, this would be 5 stars!
Zipper breaks quickly
Received ours about 2 weeks ago; original couch came with a broken zipper. Has been an absolute nightmare getting a replacement and arranging pick-up of the defective couch. Zippers are unfortunately overall cheap. I will likely return altogether and purchase a Nugget instead.
PSA: Massage The Corners (& Other Tips)!!!
We just got the couch so far and love it. In a few hours, it decompressed beautifully. I love the emerald color and material which honestly reminds me of soft corduroy. I had my doubts but it’s Day 3 and I love it. No smells out of the packaging and the foam is made in USA and Mexico, with imported fabric covers. It was a nice surprise to know that at least the foam is made in North America. The couch is sturdy and reminds me of a medium firm foam mattress. Some things to keep in mind from scouring many reviews of this couch and similar mod couches: • Immediately unbox and unravel it upon delivery to let it decompress. It assures you of your limited warranty and you can check for any defects or issues (beyond 15 days of delivery date, they may not help as much according to their enclosed booklet). • Let your little ones or yourself go at it after it gets some air in. Playing on it will actually help it decompress faster. •MASSAGE that corner!!! I’ve seen several people say the corners of their triangular wedges don’t decompress, especially one of them that gets really rolled up in shipping. We had that same issue where one came looking rounded and stayed rounded in one corner overnight, while everything else looked great. Unzipped it and GENTLY pulled at the corner tab and massaged it on the sides and it popped back up. HUGE difference! Don’t call them until you’ve tried it! It also helps to realign the fabric corners with the inner foam wedge corners; during the expansion, some of the inner wedge corners get stuck off to the side of a corner, so pulling the fabric corner back up (while pushing the foam down) and realigning with the foam corner ensures nice, pointy corners! About the zippers… * Be careful with them. They do get caught easily with the fabric, so don’t yank on it like you would your jacket zipper or you may get it stuck. As others said, this is a huge or possibly the only con, but if you’re careful with it, you should be okay. They seem sturdy otherwise. * Tuck in the zipper pulls to help hide them. Although these don’t come with hidden zippers, at least it stops the very little ones from finding them and pulling at them. Hope this review helps! After looking at the original as well as similar ones on the big online marketplace (you know which one) and some super high-end ones, this delivered on quality, material and gorgeous color.
Okay
We really love this. It's comfortable and the kids enjoy playing with it. But the zippers are terrible. They split and you cannot get them to zip correctly when you remove the cover to wash. So after attempting over and over again to get the cover on again I'm writing this review so others can be aware of this flaw.
Comparable to Nugget but not great
We got this back in September for my babies first birthday and I was so happy and excited! We got a nugget at the same time, and they were definitely comparable and so fun. We just washed for the first time and when putting it back together the zipper on the big piece broke. I’m really really disappointed and would suggest just getting a name brand play couch.
Could’ve been great, needs some fixes!
I bought this online for our kids Christmas gift. We have a 6 & 2 year old. They both love to climb, jump and build forts and pallets. I thought this was a great way to save some money and provide them both something to play on. Upon first uses it was great! It expanded quickly, no funky smell and was fun to build and play on. I thought we got a good deal and my kids loved to use it daily! Think again.. Some stuff is just better to spend a little more on. Within 2 weeks the small pocket on the side was ripped. Then I washed the covers per instructions and hung them to dry, soon as I put the cover on it would not zip correctly on one side and left massive gaps, leaving it unusable sadly. I did contact customer service and they offered to send a replacement or a full refund. This surprised me greatly since I ordered back before Christmas. I’m very impressed that they did back their return policy and have worked well with me. It’s pending pick up now since this product won’t fit back into the box and then hopefully I have my return. I will be buying my kids the brand name sofa since I know it will hold it’s quality. If it wasn’t for the quality in the fabric and zippers not being good then I would have really liked this product. If they can fix the zipper issue I think it would be great. I appreciate them giving me my money back since it did not hold up though.
Better than nugget
After comparing this to the nugget i finally decided on this couch for my rowdy toddlers. Its amazing! So easy to clean! I have washed and dried it at least a dozen times and it still looks brand new! Easy to get the cushions back in to the cover. No sagging in over a year of daily hard use from our two kids and two large dogs. HIGHLY recommend!
