doob® revels in some local pride! Bean There, Done That?

“Bean Bags? Aren’t they lumpy sacks that try to pass off as furniture, favoured by students who can’t afford actual chairs? Well, you haven’t met doob bean bags. Designed by Singaporeans for Singaporeans (the dimensions and materials used are suitable for local sizes and our tropical weather), these bean bags are chic and, some say, annoyingly comfortable. We’re most impressed by their ingenious versatility – the large doobsta’ can transform from an armchair to a recliner with a few well-placed pats. At $199, the doodad doesn’t come cheap, so you can be sure that the doobsta’s many fans love its bean bag-ness (and not ‘cos they can’t afford a real couch). doob® Bean Bags come in other shapes and sizes, and are good for lounging in, watching TV on, and for feeling like you’re young and carefree again.”– Singa-more, please! 8 Days, Jan 2012 issue
