If you are asked whether or not you have a fat boy in your living room, you may look from person to person and determine who is a bit overweight. If you are sitting in a room with only women in it, you are probably going to be even more confused. If you don't know what a ?fat boy? is, chances are, you don't have any oversized bean bag furniture in your living room, because that is exactly what it is. In fact, there are different types of bean bag furniture, and there are a lot of things that you can do with these versatile additions to your house.

A fatboy is very versatile piece of furniture, especially if your living room is not fully furnished or if you need more seating. In fact, a lot of bean bag furniture comes in oversized versions, which can be used to replace furniture or give you more seating and places for guests to lounge during a party or get together. For example, if you are having people over, you can get an oversized fat boy, and position it as an extra couch, so that people don't have to be sitting on your kitchen chairs (or, even worse, on the floor). You will probably notice that instead of your traditional couch, your guests will sit on your bean bag couch and be more comfortable there.

If you are not having a party, you might want to consider putting your fat boy in front of the television in the recreation room. Why? Because it is going to be the perfect place to eat snacks, play video games and relax after a long day at work. You may not feel comfortable relaxing on your living room sofa, because every time you try to, you are reminded just how expensive the sofa is, and how long it is until you pay it off of your credit cards. With your bean bag furniture, you are going to be able to sit on it, put your feet on it, and do whatever you need to do to get comfortable.

The third advantage to getting a bean bag chair (especially the oversized ones that are practically sofas) is that you are going to be able to use it as a spare bed. If you have guests coming from out of town, they may be asking whether or not they can stay with you. With an oversized bean bag, you are going to be able to put it in any room of your house, put some sheets and blankets on it, and voila, you have an extra bed. Now, you don't have to worry about your cousin sleeping on the floor or on the sofa, and they will be happy that they will have somewhere comfortable to rest their heads.

A fat boy can be a nice addition to any home, and can be put in nearly every room of the house. In the living room, it can act as extra seating (or your primary seating). In the bedroom, it can act as a spare bed, and in the recreation room or the basement, it can act as a piece of furniture that you can feel free to lounge on and get potato chip crumbs on.
