Hours of Giggles
I have been debating buying the original for ages but finally pulled the trigger and am so glad I did. The kids are loving coming up with new configurations and I’m loving the cooperation between them and the hours and hours of giggles they have building and pretending. 10/10 would buy again and plan to eventually buy a second.
Worst zipper ever
This was a great product until we went to take the cover off to wash. As we were unzipping it was giving us a hard time we just assumed it was because the foam had expanded and was to taught on the zipper however as I was zipping it up to put in the washer it refused to go back together. After 30 min of working on it, I finally got it closed. Washed it and again after opening it to air dry it was giving us issues we tried to get it back on and got most of it closed after working one side at a time taking up to 45 min per side. We are in the middle of trying to get one side back together, but I would not ever recommend this product to anyone unless they updated the covering. For how much was spent on this product for it to be this faulty is absolutely ridiculous. I'm half tempted to buy the replacement, I'm unsure if it would be worth it or just a waste of more money. I am absolutely disappointed in this product, especially since Sams Club always has quality products or dupes. I am very sad that this has been the outcome.
okay
I raved when we first got this couch. My daughter loved it. We had fun stacking and playing but the zipper does not hold up! It is very cheap zipped and broke within the first couple months of us having it. We never even took it off the couch to wash it just ripped open and wouldn't zip shut. Very disappointing but now I'm on the hunt for a replacement cover.
defective zipper
Honestly wanted to like this as much as the original nugget, but it just doesn’t compare. If you are going to use it just as a couch or maybe a bed that’s fine but it’s just not as sturdy as the nugget for builds. Also washed the cover one time and followed the directions and the zipper broke. Would not recommend if you can buy the original nugget I would instead!
awesome couch!
My husband wasn’t sold on the idea of this couch but within a week of having one, he decided we needed a second. We have made lots of cool forts, coloring tables, and use it consistently as a yoga mat. It has had so unexpected uses, too, like the perfect sized bed for a sick kid in my home office and sleepovers with friends. I have washed it once with no issues
overall satisfied
Purchased for toddler and preschooler. They love it. It has many functions. I only deducted a star because I purchased emerald and it is hardly comparable to the stock images. However, it still matches the bedroom decor so we kept it! For the price, I felt we can’t complain!
Does not fully expand
Save your money and buy the mod blox. I had purchased this because it was cheaper than the mod blox brand. Just spend the extra bucks on the mod blox. Products does not fully expand. The triangles does not expand fully. On the smaller folding foam, the middle where it folds is completely flat. It has been airing out for 2 full days. There are corners and sides that’s just pinched flat and won’t expand. Waste of money. Get yourself the mod blox brand as they fully expand within a couple hours.

decent sofa
We picked up a sidewalk color sofa in the store for Christmas after waiting a full year for one to be available after they advertised it in an ad. It took several days to expand but it fully expanded correctly when it was done. The fabric is very nice and the sofa is usable as expected. It’s firm yet soft enough that a 140lb adult can comfortably sleep on the thicker cushion without pain when waking as well as kids. You can fit a twin size sheet over the cushions with a little extra room in the sheet leftover. It’s been great doubling as a spare sleeping mat for sleepovers/naps. When I ordered a second one off line, the wrong color came. It came in a brown box rather than the original box like I had gotten in the store. I had to call member services and give them a serial number to even verify that it was the wrong color. Nowhere was any information on the color of the item since the orginal box was not included. If it was a gift I would have been very disappointed. They wouldn’t even know what it was. If I had opened the plastic wrap any more than I had, it would not have fit back in the box for a return. I’m currently waiting for a call for instructions on returning the item. We are disappointed we have to wait even longer for the correct item and do extra work just to get the correct one.
Zipper Broke
I want to love it, I really do. The zipper on one of the pieces broke in the first week. Sams offered a refund to return it but not sure how to return it as it is big once unboxed and expanded, I do not have a large enough box to fit it in to return.
simple concept but a lot of fun
Where were things like this when I was a kid?! This couch was a huge hit with all three of my kids, ages ranging from 8 months to 17 years old. I actually had to buy a second set to make bigger and better forts. Pros: - Literally hours of play. It encourages creativity as well as getting kids up and moving, away from electrics, which I dig. - It’s aesthetically pleasing. - Can be used to sleep on, it’s pretty firm but better than the floor. - My 8 month old uses it as a jungle gym. It’s actually helped motivate him to climb and explore. - An easy alternative to playing outside when the weather sucks. - All 3 of my kids will play together on this. Minimal fighting, I dig this also. - A great way to wear kids out for nap time. Cons: - It took a while to ship. - I haven’t had to wash this yet so I’m not familiar with the zipper issue people are having but the zipper does seem cheap so I’m anticipating it breaking. - Stains easily. I’m too afraid to take the covers off after reading other reviews. For now I’m spot cleaning it. - Difficult to store.
