Ever wondered about the history of bean bags, bean bag chairs and bean bag furniture? We all know what bean bags are, but where did they come from? How have bean bags changed? People often ask “Where can I buy bean bag chairs or “Where can I buy bean bags on the internet or in the UK”

In 1969, the first bean bag chairs where created by Italien designers Gatti, Paolini and Teodora for the furniture firm Zanotta. They became famous for their beanbags almost overnight thanks to the bean bag chairs they designed for Zanotta.

When looking for a UK Bean Bag Company or US Bean Bag Factory or shopping for a beanbag, make sure to look for quality and choice. Don't buy bean bag chairs, from any high-pressure outlet or website. Quality bean bag chairs should last years.

At Cool Bean Bags here in the UK we have been making bean bags and bean bag chairs for over 10 years. Coolbeanbags don’t have a bean bag shop and operate solely from a unit in Nottingham, in the East Midlands. Nottingham is in the UK and an ideal place to base our beanbag business as it’s the heart of the UK textiles industry and therefore a good place to establish a UK Bean Bag Company.

We don't just ship our beanbags in the UK, England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland or the Isle of Man where orders over £149 ship FREE with their filling but all over the world. We have shipped flat-packed bean bags to the USA, bean bags to Dallas Texas, bean bags to Dubai, bean bags to Germany, bean bags to France, bean bags to Canada, bean bags to Ireland, bean bags to the Italy, bean bags to North America, bean bags to Iceland, bean bags to Denmark and beanbags to Greece and bean bags to South Africa.

Our Bean Bag Loungers and Giant Bean Bag Sofas are great for kids and adults playing video games. They get your child off the floor, and are more comfy than a cushion or a regular framed chair. You can store the Bean Bag in the closet when not in use.

The Big Brother is the finest sofa bean bag on the internet and is one of our most popular Beanbags. A cool gift and a cool piece of beanbag furniture! It can be used as a bean bag bed and looks great as a piece of bean bag furniture. We also sell a lot of Flag Bean Bags, our union jack and sports bean bags are very popular
