Anyone have one of these? Look pretty cool for laying back and watching movies. BJ's is selling them for $60

Wondering how comfortable they are?

I use my couch. That seems to work pretty well.

saw this at the best buy the other day. It's actually kind of comfortable. Not worth $79 though

One of my friends bought one and I hate the thing. It won't stay together and it isn't any more comfortable than a bean bag or couch, especially for how expensive the stupid thing is.

My wife got me one, and I love it. Pretty comfortable for games, for reading, for surfing the web. Recommended :thumbsup:

Well, I didn't expect it to be more comfortable than a couch, but thought it looked pretty interesting, especially for $60. My TV is low to the floor, so this would be perfect for me.

The issue is if it has adequate back support, and will it support my 190+lbs?

just don't get your fingers/toes or any other body part near the rails if someone is rocking.... definitely bad juju on that front.

Otherwise, makes for nice [console] gaming.

I bought one. It was $69. Nice chair, very comforable. Stretch my feet out on pillows in front.:)
