CordaRoy's Alternatives
Looking for a CordaRoy's alternative?
A plush XXL beanbag chair with premium shredded memory foam, a washable sherpa-fleece cover, and free US shipping in 1-3 business days. Built to be a great chair first.
TL;DR
CordaRoy's core innovation is a beanbag that converts into a guest bed. That is a good fit for some households. For shoppers who want a dedicated beanbag chair (and will never use the bed-mode conversion), the Cosac delivers a plusher sit, at a lower price, with faster US shipping.
CordaRoy's is the Shark Tank beanbag. Their signature product is a beanbag that unzips and unfolds into a sleeping surface. Zip it back up and it becomes a chair again. It is a clever design and the brand has built a loyal following around it.
The trade-off is that the convertible mechanism shapes the feel of the chair. In chair mode, the shredded foam is loose inside the liner so it can spread out into bed mode. That makes the chair sit a little flatter and firmer than a dedicated beanbag designed around maximum sink-in plushness.
If you need a chair plus a guest bed in one piece of furniture, CordaRoy's is genuinely useful. If you only need a great beanbag chair and will never actually use the bed conversion, you are paying for a feature that will not benefit you. That is where the Cosac comes in.
Why shoppers look for a CordaRoy's alternative
You never actually use the bed mode
Most CordaRoy's owners use their beanbag in chair mode 95% of the time and convert it to a bed twice a year when guests visit. If you already have a spare mattress, an inflatable bed, or a sofa that converts, the CordaRoy's bed mode is a feature you are paying for and rarely using.
You want a plusher sit
The convertible design requires the shredded foam to be loose enough to unfold. That makes the chair sit a little flatter and firmer than a beanbag designed for pure chair comfort. If your priority is the deep sink-in feel, the Cosac is built around that instead.
The price for a chair-only use case is high
CordaRoy's Full runs around $330. The Queen runs around $530. The King can reach $800 in premium fabrics. For shoppers who only want a great beanbag chair, Cosac prices ($249 to $399) are lower for a better chair experience.
You want faster US shipping
Cosac ships from our warehouse in Burlington Township, New Jersey, with 1-3 business day delivery to all 50 US states except Hawaii. Free. Everything included in one box.

Why the Cosac is the better pick if you only need a chair
The Cosac is a premium XXL beanbag chair with shredded memory foam filling, a washable sherpa-fleece outer cover, and a dual-bag construction. It ships free from our New Jersey warehouse to all 50 US states except Hawaii in 1-3 business days. Three sizes: 5ft ($249), 6ft ($299), 7ft ($399).
The Cosac is designed around one job: being a great XXL beanbag chair. There is no convertible mechanism. The shredded memory foam fills the inner bag densely and stays where you want it. You sink in, the chair molds to your body, and the shape holds for years.
Because there is no bed-mode complexity, everything in the product is optimized for the sit. The foam is denser. The shape is rounder. The sherpa-fleece outer cover is plusher. The inner bag is fully contained with a heavy-duty zipper. Everything the Cosac does is in service of one goal.
If you need a guest bed, buy a CordaRoy's. If you need a great beanbag chair, the Cosac is cheaper, plusher, and ships free from our US warehouse in 1-3 business days.
Other CordaRoy's alternatives worth knowing
The Cosac is our pick for shoppers who want a dedicated beanbag chair. Here are the other options in the space.
Lovesac Sac
~$1,100 to $1,700 completeFill: Durafoam shredded foam
The premium end of the shredded foam beanbag market. Lifetime warranty on the insert and 200+ US retail stores. Closer in feel to the Cosac than to CordaRoy's (both are chair-first, not convertible).
Moon Pod
~$300Fill: High-density EPS beads
A firm, single-person zero-gravity seat filled with high-density beads. Very different feel from CordaRoy's (which uses shredded foam). If the firm cradling sensation appeals to you, Moon Pod is worth trying. If you want plush, skip it.
Yogibo Max
~$330 + annual refillsFill: EPS micro-beads
Lightweight, stretchy cover, 40+ colors. The micro-beads compress faster than shredded foam, so most owners need to refill once or twice a year. Over 3 years of ownership, the true cost is closer to $500.
Big Joe
~$100 to $350Fill: Varies (polyfoam or EPS)
The budget pick. Fine for kids' rooms, dorms, or any space where you do not need the beanbag to last more than a couple of years.
The honest verdict
Buy a CordaRoy's if you genuinely need the bed-mode conversion (studios, guest rooms, small apartments where one piece of furniture needs to do two jobs). For every other use case, the Cosac is cheaper, plusher as a chair, ships faster, and is built around a single job: being the most comfortable XXL beanbag you can buy at this price.
