beanbag chair

Squishy lounging furniture

A beanbag chair is a large fabric sack filled with small polystyrene beads or similar material, conforming to the sitter's body rather than holding a fixed shape.

Popular since the 1960s as casual, informal seating: The kids sprawled on beanbag chairs playing video games.

Also called simply a beanbag.
