What is a Nugget Couch?

Tips for Choosing a Nugget Couch Alternative

Materials: Play couch cushions should be made from a squishy foam to ensure a soft landing during boisterous antics. To keep it from getting too grubby, go for a play couch with a machine-washable cover that can be removed for easy cleaning. Alternatively, you could opt for something with a wipe-clean vinyl cover. Options made using certified foams and Greenguard gold certified materials are best, as they’ve passed rigorous tests for harmful chemicals and emissions.

Cost: Before making a purchase, set a budget and stick to it. The Nugget alternatives on this list range from $165 to $399.

Size: A play couch can take up a lot of space, and can be awkward to store. Measure the room you intend on placing it in ahead of time, to determine what size couch is best for your family.

Shipping Last year, major shipping delays led to many parents seeking out Nugget couch alternatives. Currently, the Nugget couch should ship within five business days in the contiguous US, and over seven days to Hawaii and Alaska. Other retailers promise to deliver within one to two weeks. As furniture is often considered a bulky item, you may also need to factor in additional shipping costs.

Safety: It’s important to note that children should always be supervised while using a play couch or other soft-play equipment. Aside from this, look for play furniture made with soft, child-friendly materials and avoid anything with sharp edges or unfinished seams.
