Love it

My little one loves this couch. She mainly uses it to sit and watch bluey or make a fort

We loved it!

Truly loved this possum couch! Less screen time for my kids and interaction play instead :)

Amazing!

It was her 3year old birthday present and my daughter loves it. It gets used one way or another and I can see will be using it for a long time. It’s amazing!

The Possum Play Couch (with Circle Set)

LOVE IT!

Is it a couch? Is it a castle? Is it a Den?!
Who knows - it can be whatever you want it to be and we LOVE IT! It's practical and such fun our girls are having so many adventures. THANK YOU!

Love the machine washable covers

I got a spare cover set so I can change up the colour every now and again in our play room. So easy to change and they wash up amazingly. Changeable covers is SUCH a great feature for a kids furniture product

Amazing!!

We are so pleased with the play sofa, it has kept the children very busy. It has been great for my toddler and baby to play safely on but also great for my older children and teenage child to get creative and have building/ creating competitions with!

Fantastic

I use the possum play couch for my family daycare and the kids love it so much especially building forts with it. Great quality too.

The best thing we’ve bought so far from Possum

It’s like a bean bag/safety mat/reading chair/trampoline and even a dog bed when we aren’t looking. We plan to get another soon.

Hours of fun

Our 2.5 year old loves it so much. Not a day has gone by since we got it that it hasn’t been used for jumping, hiding, climbing…
Looking forward to adding the last extra shapes we don’t have yet

Love this product!!

Best investment!

I’d had my eye on this for a while and I’m so happy I took the plunge and bought it! Our one year old absolutely loves it and I can’t wait to see what he makes with it as he gets older. Plus it’s also really comfy to sit on whilst he plays. Definitely recommend!

We recently re-did our playroom as our boys were getting a little older, and so we needed to change the colour of our Possum as we wanted to turn it blue to match the rest of the decor. Being able to get a whole new cover set and change the colour of our Possum was such a hack. It's like a brand new couch! Plus now we have a spare.

I haven’t stopped recommending this!

Absolutely perfect product. My 6 year old and 1 year old have not stopped playing with it.
We have also used it for movie nights, as a spare bed, and mostly as two armchairs
It’s perfect for a toddler to be able to climb onto the sofa with you vs normal sofas which are too high up for them and not safe.
Good quality, haven’t washed the covers yet. I normally just hoover the sofa every few days and wipe down any other marks.

Great, versatile piece!

Fun, comfy, and well made!

Best purchase ever

My son has level 3 ASD and we purchased the possum play couch with the equal thick bases, the circle set, the wedges and the armrest sets and it has 100% been the best purchase we have made. Not only does it help with his sensory needs with heavy lifting but it has encouraged him to use imaginative play which he really struggles with! It is so comfy and such amazing quality and even my 5 year old daughter is always using it. I could not recommend this enough. The customer service was fabulous and it came so quickly and was so easy to set up.

My kids absolutely love their possum play couch, they use it everyday. So glad we made this purchase :)

The Possum Play Couch (with Circle Set)

High end quality

Easy to set up into different shapes for endless fun. Is a safe indoor play option that I wish I purchased sooner for my 4 year old.

Amazing all 3 kids love playing together on it and building cubby houses!! It’s so firm but comfy!

Still unpacked as it’s a Christmas present for my 2 little granddaughters but I know they’ll love it. My daughter is excited for the girls to receive it

Loves it

Great product - we're having so much fun
