[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love this thing. My kids have been playing with this nonstop. Instructions say to let it expand after taking it out of packaging, for about 48 hours. I think this was expanded maybe a little after 24 hours. The girls love to take naps on it, make forts out of it, as you can see in the picture using it as a slide. So many fun uses and so comfortable. I really do wish I would have gotten one sooner. This thing is definitely being put to use and is holding up pretty well, and very sturdy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a mother of 2 younger children(ages 4 & 5), I’m always trying to find something that they will utilize at home, sparks their creativity and they will have fun with(for more than a few minutes) Their favorite kid’s museum has similar play couches, friends speak very highly of them and doing my own research, it was a product I wanted for my children. It came vacuum sealed/compressed. Instructions said that it should get its shape in about 48 hours but 1-2 weeks to reach its full expansion potential. While it’s settling, our stuffed animal collection will call it home. It fit into a smaller sized bedroom just fine. Photos don’t do the color justice but it is a pretty blue/gray denim color, which goes well with my children’s bedroom. The covers unzip and can be washed, which is another great feature especially with children. I see this growing with them, also. Now it’s a play gym but as they get older, it can be a reading nook or a hangout spot for them. This one is also a cheaper alternative to similar competitors play couches.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This kid's explore play gym has been a hit. Not only with my kids but my daycare kiddos as well. They play on it all day. You can do so many things with this gym. We have built forts, took naps on it, turn into a couch to watch movies, slide down and many more things. Very sturdy and the material is durable and easy to clean.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an awesome addition to our families playtimes. My sons love to create different contraptions to play and climb on. Being able to create different ideas, allows my sons to explore with building and take chances in a safe environment.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] With two little kids they tend to fight when the other invades their space. With these mini “couches” they can have all the space they want and not fight. They can also join forces to use their mats to create a fort together. All around fun times!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After getting the item, it needs a day or so to expand. Once that time is passed, my kids have been playing with it every day for over a week. This is an awesome set that keeps two boys very occupied building new things with it. It also is a great mat for rolling around. The quality is solid, with firm fabric and feels like it will last for years to come.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly as a parent. You get your kids items and they play with them for ten seconds. The Member's Mark Kid's Explorer Play Gym will get endless amounts of play. I unboxed this jim and within two hours my kids were already playing on it. It didn't fully expand for the full forty eight hours, But they were still able to use it during that time. There's so many different ways that it could be set up. The material is very soft, There is a side of the triangle pieces that is more of a faux leather like material and it makes it easy to slide down. My youngest 2 kids which are 18 months and 7 years old play with us thing for hours everyday. We love it and you will too.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My children love this, they immediately began to build all sorts of options, a house, and a sofa, and a ladder and a slide, and a pedestal, it's very exciting. I liked the quality, the way they are made, the pillows are quite voluminous, soft, the covers are removable and can be washed separately. For a kid's room, this is a great solution, children like to play with them, sit or relax on them. Looks cool, love the color. This is a great gift and everyone will love it.

I bought play gym for our daughters as Christmas present. It didn't even take 15 minutes to expand fully, so they could play right away. It was a great product until I noticed the color was not the one I chose. My husband called customer service but was informed returning and getting refund are the only option, so decided to keep it. I hope they will sell the cover separately like the explorer sofa.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids, ages 4 & 6, have been having a ball playing with the members mark kids explorer play gym! The gym comes tightly compressed and packed in the box which expands upon opening. Instructions state it takes up to 48 hours although all but 1 cushion was fully expanded within 1 day. Even after 48 hours, one of the triangle pieces was still not expanding, so I took it out of the cover and by the morning it too was fully expanded. The gym comes with 1 base (2 cushions sewn together), 2 stair sets and 2 wedges. The wedges have a faux leather texture on the wide end which make them perfect for sliding. Even though the cushions are solid and hold quite a bit of weight, they are fairly light which makes it easy even for my 4 year old to lift and move them around. The cushions can be configured into tons of different options including a small couch, slide, tower or a fort. As a parent, I love that the covers are removable and machine washable which make keeping it clean such a breeze. I found them quite easy to put back in the cover and zipper up as well. My kids love having their own special soft spot where they can both chill out or rough house with each other without getting hurt on sharp edges. It seems to be a really durable material and of good quality so I see this lasting a long time!
