I was hesitant in the beginning because I had read some bad reviews about the zipper being kind of flimsy but so far I’m very impressed with the quality of this couch! It’s perfect in my toddlers room. He loves it and we do as we get to all sit and read to him before bed! I’m considering buying another one for our living room.

We’ve had the kids couch for 8 months now. It is well loved and we’ve had no issues until today. I washed the cover, which was probably my fault, but afterwards the zipper would not zip properly on one of the large sections. I wish they sold replacement covers, because we do really love the product.

Absolutely love this item. We have been looking at the original for a while but hesitated. Once this came out (and was back in stock) I didn’t second guess myself and purchased immediately. It might “only” be $50 cheaper but it IS still cheaper. My three kiddos are loving it so much I am trying to talk my husband into another one when they restock!

These are great and comparable BUT! they are inconsistent. We have 1 emerald and 1 ocean. Our ocean is uniformed and sturdy foam but our emerald is no where near as good. We are trying to return it due to the fact that it just can't hold builds. The triangles are made of softer foam in our emerald compared to our ocean, and they are not the same size making some builds impossible. If all Explorer Sofas were like our ocean (sturdy & uniformed) these would 100% be a go to. The kids love them and they create great indoor fun. My kids break a sweat on these fast and its like never ending cardio meaning easier sleep times. Our dogs hair does not stick to these like everything else and even dried wax was easy to clean. Hours upon hours of fun build an arena for nerf wars, forts, beds, lounges, obstacle courses, the possibilities are endless!

We LOVE this couch, we use it every single day. However, with a 1 and 3 year olds use it has busted zippers after 4 months. I knew I was opting for the cheaper version of the Nugget and it really is. I would still recommend but with caution. If you have bigger kids who are rougher, go for the real deal.

We purchased this for our 7 month old and he loves it! It has been great for his gross motor and he is now climbing up and down with ease (9 months old now). He loves to stand and hold himself up on the triangle pieces too! And at $50 cheaper than the nugget it's a big overall win!

Bought this for my active toddler (18 months), but his 3 older siblings (3, 6, & 8) love it just as much. Hands down the most played with Christmas gift by all the kids. My husband was initially concerned about the size, but after seeing all 4 kids play together on it for hours on end, he agrees it's more than worth the space it takes up.

My kids love this Explorer Sofa. We saw it in our neighborhood Sam's Club, but they didn't have the color we wanted. We decided to just order it online. It came compressed. We unpacked and let the foam take its shape for an hour or two. Then the kids had their way. It completely filled in its shape after a day. Of course the kids managed to get a stain on it after 3 days. I just wiped with baking soda and peroxide. Clean as new! We had the explorer sofa for almost a month and it has held up so far. My kids build forts, use it as a slide, or just to lay down. They really enjoy it and now they don't get a gazillion blankets dirty trying to build forts. Overall it was a great purchase.

This couch a knock off nugget. You are better off spending the extra $50 dollars on a nugget couch. My daughter who is only 13 months (so obviously not at the age to be jumping and being rough yet) played on this for not even a whole day and the zippers broke. I honestly was questioning them when I took them out of the plastic wrap and opened them up to let the foam breath and expand the night before.

I got this couch for my 2 year old for Christmas. She LOVES it. The pillows are light enough for her to maneuver on her own and it can be made into a couch, chair, fort, a tent, whatever you can imagine. She jumps on it daily and it's still nice and squishy. Great dupe to the Nugget couch.
