Lovesac Alternatives
Looking for a Lovesac alternative?
The same shredded memory foam comfort, a washable cover, everything included, and US shipping in 1-3 business days. For a fraction of the price.
TL;DR
Lovesac starts around $1,100 for a complete setup. The Cosac starts at $249 and uses the same premium shredded memory foam, with a washable sherpa-fleece cover and free US shipping from our New Jersey warehouse.
Lovesac is the biggest name in the premium beanbag market. Founded in 1995, publicly traded, with 200+ US retail stores. If you have ever sunk into a giant shredded-foam beanbag in a furniture showroom, it was probably a Lovesac Sac.
The product is genuinely good. The question most people ask when they see the price tag is whether it is good enough to justify spending $1,100 to $1,700 for a complete setup (insert plus cover). For most shoppers, the answer is no. Not because Lovesac is bad, but because the same core experience exists at a fraction of the cost.
This page walks through why Cosac is the most direct Lovesac alternative for US shoppers, what you give up (and what you do not), and how other alternatives like CordaRoy's, Moon Pod, Yogibo, and Big Joe compare.
Why shoppers look for a Lovesac alternative
The price
A 6ft Lovesac Sac starts around $850 for the insert, plus another $200 to $600 for the cover. A complete setup lands between $1,100 and $1,700. For a lot of households, that is a lot of money for one piece of furniture.
No Lovesac showroom nearby
Lovesac relies heavily on its retail footprint. If you do not have a store within driving distance, you are buying online anyway, which means you are paying the retail markup without any of the showroom experience.
You do not need the lifetime warranty
Lovesac is famous for its lifetime warranty on the foam insert. That is real value if you plan to keep the beanbag for 20 years. Most people keep a beanbag for 5 to 10 years, and a much cheaper beanbag with a 60-day return policy and good reviews is a better fit for that horizon.
Shipping speed
Lovesac ships from its distribution centers on a variable timeline. The Cosac ships free from our US warehouse in Burlington Township, New Jersey, with 1-3 business day delivery to all 50 US states except Hawaii.

Why the Cosac is the most direct Lovesac alternative
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 filling is what matters most in a premium beanbag, and that is where Cosac and Lovesac are closest. Both use shredded foam that holds its loft for years, molds to your body, and does not flatten the way EPS bead beanbags do. Cosac uses CertiPUR-US certified shredded memory foam, the same certification standard used by premium US mattress brands.
The sherpa-fleece outer cover zips off completely and goes into a standard washing machine. The inner bag holds the filling in place, so nothing spills during washing. This is the single biggest quality-of-life feature in a beanbag that lives with kids or pets, and it is included with every Cosac at no extra cost (unlike Lovesac, where covers are a separate purchase).
At $249 for the 5ft, $299 for the 6ft, and $399 for the 7ft, the Cosac is the closest thing to a Lovesac Sac experience without the Lovesac price tag. Everything is included in one box, the cover is washable, and it ships from our US warehouse in 1-3 business days.
Other Lovesac alternatives worth knowing
The Cosac is our pick for most shoppers, but it is not the only Lovesac alternative. Here are the other options and who each one is actually best for.
CordaRoy's
~$330-$800Fill: Shredded polyfoam
The Shark Tank brand. Their beanbag converts into a guest bed. If you need a chair and a backup bed in one piece of furniture, this is genuinely clever. If you only want a chair, you are paying for a feature you will rarely use.
Moon Pod
~$300Fill: High-density EPS beads
A structured, firm bead-filled beanbag built around a zero-gravity cradling sensation. Very different feel from a Lovesac (or a Cosac). People who love it describe it as the most relaxing thing they own. People who wanted a plush sink-in experience are often disappointed.
Yogibo
~$330 + annual refillsFill: EPS micro-beads
Lightweight, stretchy cotton-spandex covers, 40+ colors. The feel is different from Lovesac (more conforming, less dense). The trade-off is maintenance. EPS micro-beads compress quickly and most owners pay $79 per year for refill bags.
Big Joe
~$100-$350Fill: Varies (polyfoam or EPS)
Sold at Walmart, Target, and Amazon. The budget pick. Build quality is functional rather than premium. Fine for dorms, kids' rooms, or anywhere the beanbag does not need to last more than a couple of years.
The honest verdict
If you are buying a beanbag to keep for 20 years and you live near a Lovesac store, Lovesac is a good choice. For almost everyone else, the Cosac delivers the same shredded-foam sink-in experience at roughly one quarter the price, with everything included in one box and free 1-3 business day shipping from our US warehouse.
