Read Full ReviewIs the Moon Pod Right for You?
The Moon Pod bean bag is specially designed to have a floating sensation and keep kids and adults of all sizes comfortable. Every person has different needs and preferences though, so let’s go over who I do (and don’t) recommend the Moon Pod to.
Who should try the Moon Pod
- Anyone searching for an alternative seating option should check out the Moon Pod. Sick of a traditional chair or couch? Want to be able to easily move your lounging product around? The Moon Pod’s got you covered.
- If you like being able to morph your seat into the shape you want, then this is a nice product choice. It’s easy to adjust into different positions so you can sit or lay on it.
- Bean bag chair lovers will feel at home on the Moon Pod. It’s definitely reminiscent of your childhood bean bag, but it’s shaped more oblong than a traditional, spherical bean bag. This allows it to be a better fit for adults.
Who should not try the Moon Pod
- If you prefer to sit on a chair/couch or have mobility issues, this might not fit your needs, as it’s intended to be placed on the floor and could be difficult for some people to get in and out of.
- Heavier people, weighing over 300 pounds, may find the Moon Pod to not be supportive enough. I think all body weights will find times of feeling the ground when in the sitting position and having to readjust, so heavier people could face this even more. However, the company says the Moon Pod’s able to support upwards of 300 pounds and has worked for people up to 6’8”.
- Budget shoppers might be turned off by the Moon Pod’s price tag. But keep in mind, the company often runs sales to help out. Click our coupon links as well to save even more!
What Does the Moon Pod Feel Like?
Let’s discuss what the Moon Pod feels like.Moon Pod Feel
For lack of a better description, this adult bean bag feels a lot like, well, a bean bag. Along with the shape being more of a hotdog than a hamburger, what really helps set the Moon Pod apart from traditional bean bag chairs is the high-density beads inside that morph to your body shape and support you more than an old-school bean bag might. The company also says this material can offer ergonomic support that can be helpful to anyone who suffers from back pain. My coworker and I both thought the Moon Pod was easy to put into the structure we wanted and was comfy to lounge on. Its cover has a t-shirt feel that’s soft to the touch as well.Moon Pod Bean Bag Chair

Read Full ReviewHow Does the Moon Pod Work?
It’s pretty simple, but the Moon Pod does come with its own operational steps worth noting. You first put the cover on it, which comes in five colors: Moon Indigo (the color we tested), Cosmic Ash, Space Gray, Neptune Blue, and Rose Quartz. You put the removable cover on the Moon Pod bag by zipping it up and then mold it to whatever sitting, reclining, or sleeping position you want.
What is the Moon Pod Made Of?
The Moon Pod has three basic components: the cover, the inner shell, and the filling. Let’s dive into each layer more below. Cover: The cover is removable and machine washable. It’s made from a blend of polyester, spandex, and cotton. As mentioned earlier, the washable cover also comes in a handful of different colors. Inner shell: Inside is the inner chamber filled with “high friction custom beads.” The fabric of the inner chamber is a spandex blend. There’s also an outer shell lining for additional protection. Filling: This is where the beads are, which are expanded polystyrene beads, or EPS beads, made at a custom density. These beads are what gives the Moon Pod its “floating” effect. The company says the beads mimic the sensations of flotation therapy, which has been linked to helping reduce stress and anxiety.

My Final Thoughts About the Moon Pod
Both my coworker and I were intrigued by the crescent-shaped Moon Pod. It’s pretty comfortable to sit on and easily conforms into a new shape. I think what really impressed me was how well it’d hold its figure when I sat or laid on it. It felt very supportive for a 12-pound adult bean bag! That being said, I also like how light it was and easy to carry around. It could be great for a living room, office space, kids’ room, or playing video games on. However, the company says they are not to be used by infants. I think the Moon Pod might not feel supportive enough to heavier people, weighing over 300 pounds. And it might be a little too expensive for budget shoppers. I would recommend trying to get it during a sale if you’re interested in the product.Other Products From Moon Pod
