Great!
Beans were bit difficult to take off the plastic bag. But overall it was good to pour.

Very messy
Such a messy product and process. You will be cleaning your house for two days after attempting to fill the bags. All of this could have been easily avoided by inserting cheap plastic helper tools and a way to discharge static in the bag. Best thing is to watch YouTube to see some clever ways of filling the bag.

    I didn't have good success.
    It was miserable trying to get the filler inserted into the bean bag. The filler wanted to go everywhere but inside. Now I am out $21 b/c it would require more filler to even fill up the bean bag chair, and I can't go through it again. Throwing the bean bag chair away I guess.

    Big joe beans
    I liked that you get two extra large bags of the filler but i didnt like how small the fillers were. They were a little messy as well. Overall it got the job done and filled our big joe bean bag chairs and we have some left.

    Bean Peals
    The Bean Peals are the right size. Wish Big Joe would make a smaller bag, this bag is about 3 feet tall.

    Too small!
    This says that the beans are as large as a pea. You can see by the picture that it's not even close and every day we have styrofoam balls all over the floor...that's after putting duct tape over all the seams on this handmade leather ottoman (from Brazil)

    Bad packaging
    The item itself was fine, BUT when they put the package in the box, they put the sealed side down in the bottom of the box so when I pulled the bag out of the box, to my surprise it had not been sealed completely and the little Styrofoam balls went all over the place! I took pictures and it took me forever to clean them up but thank goodness I was out in our garage! I honestly can say that I do not think I would ever order them again! Wasted so much of my time!!!!!!! The item itself is fine but they better go back to the drawing board with the packaging!!

    You need an empty paper towel roll and 2 people.
    Very happy with the bean bag refill beans. You will need 2 people. One to hold the bean bag you are filling and one to hold the the refill beans. To make it easier to fill you bean bag, get an empty paper towel roll. Cut a small hole on the corner of the bean bag refill and put your empty paper towel roll in the hole and tape up around the hole . The beans will flow nicely out of the paper towel roll and you will have minimum mess ( escaped beans ) . This works great. One bag was all I needed.

    Great fill
    This refill filled our grandson bean bag perfectly. Took two of us to fill bc it can be messy but it wasn't that bad. Just refill slow and carefully.

    So far so good
    I used this to refill a big joe bean bag chair. I used a paper towel tube taped into the corner of the bag. I inserted the other end of the tube into the chair. Easy peasy. The beans went into the chair and not on my floor. Having just filled the chair I have no info as to the longevity of the product but initially I'm happy.

    Great filling!
    I bought 2 bags and I only needed 1 1/4 for my child size bean bag that I made. I think I over stuffed it son I will be taking some out. My son can't really sit on it the way it is now as you can see in the picture. Its really stuffed, lol. Filling it was super easy not hard like some other people have said. I honestly don't know what or how they were doing it. Love this product! I will be ordering more for my other son!

    Works great
    Was very skeptical initially, esp after reading some reviews here but had no other choice so ordered one bag (Popped Polystyrene Bean Bag Refill, 4-Cubic Feet ). I was pleased with what I got - the carton was 36*11*17 inches and was FULL of polystyrene balls. The balls were not loose but were contained in a thick plastic bag which when deflated and flat was 46 * 21 inches. The balls were new and were bigger than the original ones in my bean bag. I still went ahead and added the new ones, the bean bag (after the mix) felt as good as the new one! Most importantly I figured out a super easy and super convenient way to refill the bag. Here is the secret (I did it in my living room - against popular advice!!). See picture (it was taken after successful transfer); 1] Get a cardboard tube, mailing tube, Pringles tube etc and some packing/duct tape 2] Cut a hole in the plastic bag just big enough for your tube, insert the tube an inch into the bag and tape the bag to the tube 3] Open the bean bag very very VERY carefully just big enough for your tube, insert the other end of the tube and tape it to the bag. Be very careful since the other end of the tube is connected to the plastic bag which is FULL of 'eager to get out' balls 4] Now you have plastic bag connected to Bean bag via a tube, just lift the plastic bag and watch the balls slide down effortlessly. They will get clogged time to time, just move/shake/slosh the bean bag to move the balls out of the way. Good luck. PS: For size of pics check out the pics in another review by someone else.
