The product itself is just as good as a Nugget couch! If you are on the fence about it, highly recommend getting it. I have four kids who range in age from 3-9. I ordered two of these and all four are OBSESSED. I was hesitant my older kids would like it, but they have continuously built forts and played on it, too. The item arrived later than originally scheduled, but was packaged nicely and vaccum sealed. The box is a little heavy if you are carrying upstairs but manageable for one person. Once you cut the plastic, the couch immediately begins expanding. My kids were jumping on it within 10 minutes- which the instructions say helps with the foam filling in any wrinkles it may have, faster. Another video I saw before purchasing was skeptical about the triangles fully expanding but I assure you- they will! Great product. One year warranty came with it.

SO happy we bought these (2 at this point)! We compared to the Nugget and actually prefer these for comfort sake! I am disabled and struggle being on the floor with my almost 1 year old- these give me the privilege of quality time and fun! Would recommend (2 months in) to anyone!

My boys absolutely love their explorer sofa. We’ve had a Nugget couch for a while, and when it came time to add another, I decided to purchase this Member’s Mark version. While we have only had this one for about a month, I can say I wish we had saved the money on our first play couch. If you’re on the fence, buy this explorer sofa instead of the more expensive option.

My kids have really enjoyed playing with this. The reason for the low stars is because only after a week the zipper is coming apart on the larger pieces. It’s really fun for them and great for creativity. I’m just disappointed on how it’s held up.

Earlier this year we purchased a Nugget brand sofa and my kids (range from 4-9 years old) were obsessed! With the kids fighting over it daily, I knew I wanted another one. I was ecstatic to see Sam’s Club offering one under their brand to purchase for $50 less. Comparison: MM Explorer sofa is same size as Nugget. Nice cover. MM Explorer sofa triangle pieces are inferior to Nugget triangle pieces. Foam doesn’t fill it as well, sharper angles in the foam make it less sturdy. With the Nugget-thicker rectangle piece is thicker as well as firmer. MM Explorer thicker piece is just thicker. MM Explorer sofa has fewer color options, but color options are all nice. Overall, if I have to choose, Nugget is marginally superior. My overall recommendation-save yourself the $50 and get the Member’s Mark Explorer sofa!!! I’m including the differences I saw (as someone who does own both), but my kids cannot tell the difference. They happily play with both.

Great quality, the foam is sturdy (my husband and I can both stand on it and not sink down) and the fabric is soft yet durable! Our 16mo loves climbing on it, wishing we had room for 2 sets! So thankful for this less expensive version of the name-brand, worth every penny!

My 3 boys love these couches! Endless fun and definitely great for cold or rainy days when we’re stuck inside. The emerald color is definitely darker in person than the bright teal color in the photos. I actually like the color in person much better.

We loved the one we got last year so much, that we got the kids another one for Christmas. We have a 7, 5, 3, and 1 year old and these couches get played with daily! Such a good price for the quality of these! They’re both firm and comfy. We enjoy them.

If you are considering this couch, buy it! I bought two of them for the price of only one popular name brand, and these are even better than the name brand. The material is a double-brushed and hair does not stick to it. The covers wash well. I did purchase waterproof liners to go over the foam from a different company. I am considering purchasing a third couch.

Bought as a gift for a friends kid, because my sons LOVE theirs. my friends kid loves hers too, spends all day making forts and obstacle courses. Same with my boys. After a year and a half, there is a little wear on the seam where the tag attached, but otherwise holding up good, and for how destructive my guys are, that's pretty good.
