Ultimate Sack vs Lovesac: Comparing Comfort, Style And Value

If you’ve been on the hunt for a giant bean bag, you’ve probably come across both the Ultimate Sack and the Lovesac.

I decided to put them both to the test and shared my findings below. To make the comparison as fair as possible, I’ve compared Lovesacs the Big One with the Ultimate Sack 6000 to get the closest like-for-like comparison possible.

Ultimate Sack Bean Bag

Factors I compared:

• Skin Feel: Specifically I looked at how it felt against my body—Was it itchy? Was it super slippery? Did it feel luxurious or cheap? If you’ve used a bean bag, you know what I mean.
• Sinking Factor: Basically how much I sunk into it. You don’t want to go too deep or else you can’t do anything. But you need enough sink to be super comfy. Like Goldilocks and her porridge, getting the sinking factor just right is no easy task.
• Aesthetics: How it looks in a room. What kind of space does it suit?
• Ergonomics: Is sitting in this thing going to mess up your back? Do you basically have to be a child or can adults use it comfortably?
• Filling Quality: Memory Foam or Beads. What is the durability and comfort level like of the filling?
• Cleanable: Basically—can the cover go in the washing machine? (because who wants to hand wash a bean bag cover? Definitely not me)
• Shipping and Return Policy: Is there a warranty? You don’t want to shell out $$ only to realize that you can’t return a defective product.

Ultimate Sack

In contrast, Ultimate Sack offers material quality that focuses on comfort and affordability. The brand uses durable fabrics that are designed to be cozy and inviting.

Now, they might not have the same luxurious feel as LoveSac’s materials, But the covers are still super soft and comfy enough for everyday use. They also use high quality fillers, which is one of the key things that make a bean bag comfortable (or uncomfortable).

Ultimate Sack might not give you that luxe feel, but it does provide the balance between quality and cost-effectiveness. This makes Ultimate Sack an excellent option if you’re looking for comfortable, long-lasting bean bags and don’t want to pay the premium price tag.

Comfort and Ergonomic Design

LoveSac is more suited for those who prioritize ergonomic support in their seating, while Ultimate Sack is perfect for those who value the traditional, sink-in comfort of a bean bag.

LoveSac bean bags uses the DuraFoam filling, which adapt to the user’s shape and offers a balanced mix of softness and support. This makes them an excellent choice for prolonged periods of sitting, as they help in reducing strain on the back and joints.

Ultimate Sack bean bags are known for their plush, enveloping feel, which comes from the use of shredded polyurethane memory foam. This foam not only offers a cozy sitting experience but also provides a degree of support and pressure relief.

While they might not be specifically designed with ergonomics as a primary focus (like LoveSac), Ultimate Sack bean bags are still pretty supportive. Users have reported reduced back pain and posture-related discomfort, similar to memory foam beds.

Design and Aesthetics

LoveSac’s design ethos is rooted in modernity. Lovesac looks like modern, designer furniture and will suit a luxury aesthetic. Ultimate Sack’s design approach, on the other hand, is about bringing the cozy, laid-back vibe of a bean bag.

Customer Feedback

• LoveSac’s reviews often focus on the high quality, innovative design, and ergonomic support, with the main drawback being the price.
• Users commended the Ultimate Sack for its comfort, variety, and value for money, appealing to those looking for a cozy, affordable bean bag option.
