Dimensions

Please check the above image for your Possum Play Couch dimensions. Equal Thick Bases are 25cm total height (versus 22cm for Regular Bases).

Your Possum Play Couch is delivered in a box that is 31cm x 31cm x 91cm (yep! We fit a whole couch in there!), and weighs 14kgs.

Materials

Possum Play Couches are made of the most durable and safe materials on the market.

- CertiPUR-US® certified foam. Our foam is made without ozone depleters, PBDEs, TDCPP or TCEP (”Tris”) flame retardants, mercury, lead, and other heavy metals

- STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® certified, brushed microsuede covers. We love microsuede because it is super durable (stain resistant, machine washable, shrink-resistant) whilst also being super soft and smooth against the skin

- YKK Zippers. All our zippers come with rounded heads and fabric 'zipper garages' to prevent scratches and snags

Equal vs Regular Bases

Equal Sized Thick Bases might be best for you if you're likely to use The Possum for:
- Movie nights & sleepovers (because the bases lay flat next to eachother)
- Extra sturdy builds
- Separated into 2 equal sized armchairs
- Laid out as a mat for playtime
- Avoiding sibling squabbles with the same sized pieces
- You like the look of the 2 bases being the same size!

Regular Sized Bases might be best for you if you're likely to use The Possum for:
- Greater variety in builds
- A softer top for snuggling into in couch mode
- Smaller children will find the thinner base easier to lift and build with
- You like the look of the 2 bases being different sizes!

Are the covers washable?

You bet they are! Trust us, this was close to design-criteria Number 1! Pop them in your machine on a cold wash with a colour-safe detergent and gentle cycle, and then line dry (no tumble-drying) to avoid shrinkage.

We use the highest quality dense foam and have put it through rigorous testing to make sure it bounces back into shape with no damage after compression! You've got some seriously fun unboxing infront of you watching The Possum emerge from its box!

Good quality, comfortable and fun

Bought for two year old, great to use as cubbies and playing. Comfortable to sit and lie on, feels like really good quality but it is pricey but we shall see how long it last!

Just fantastic

We bought this for our very active and imaginative three year old and wished we’d done it sooner as her one year old sister is equally as obsessed with it! We’re having so much fun creating obstacle courses and building everything from boats and castle dens to “Ariel’s secret underwater cave” and “sleeping beauty’s bed”. Highly recommend and can’t wait to see them grow with it and start building their own make believe constructions. Can see it being a future staple in movie nights and sleepovers too!!

Best money I’ve spent yet!

Absolutely thrilled with our possum play couch! I purchased this for my daughters first birthday and for a month this has been used all throughout the day, every day, in many different ways. It is perfect for soft play climbing, cubby-housing and cosying up for story time. Also - the sunshine yellow adds such a gorgeous bright energy to our play space. Will be used for years and years to come!

Best fun for our toddler

The Possum Play Couch has been an awesome addition to our toddlers room. We read books on it, have tea parties, build it into a stage and a cubby house. We couldn’t be happier with the versatility between functional couch and play space.

Well worth the money

By far THE BEST THING IVE EVER BOUGHT!!!! My son(2 years ) and daughter(1year) love it. It’s great for everything chillin playing and even sleep overs for their friends and even themselves in each others rooms

High quality, very comfy, lovely material and a nice colour (sunshine yellow). The possum lounge was recommended by friends and we are happy with our investment.

Best purchase!

We bought the mini version as we don't have alot of space and it is just perfect! My one year old loves it so much! Highly recommend!!! The sage colour is beautiful 😍

My 1 year old granddaughter loves this. It’s so much fun to watch her climb and play on it

A brilliant addition!

Purchased for my 4yo birthday. She loves it, as does my one year old. They play with it almost daily - favourite set ups being slide and dens for tea parties. Looks lovely in the room and will definitely add to it in the future.

Worth It

Was tossing up purchasing for a while and once I pulled the trigger I was not disappointed. Endless hours of creativity and we also use it for naps/quiet time throughout the day. Definitely worth the money

Hours of fun

Kids absolutely love thier possum play couch, they use it constantly and it opens up a whole new world of play.

We can’t wait to add the additional pieces to the collection!

Grandson love

Just as it was advertised, grandson loves it. ❤️

Love it! Great for imaginative independent playing

My kids 4 and 2 love it, and I do too! We spend so much time building and hiding in the fort. worth every penny. I picked the sage green colour and looks amazing in my coastal house! It is a place for us to hang out and cuddle too!

Best present I have ever brought

I brought the play couch over a year ago for my 2 toddler sons, they loved it so much, and play with it every day, we have now purchased some of the shapes and jumbo covers to go with it. The possibilities are endless.. We have built dens, and vehicles, soft play obstacle courses and adventure play areas. We have used it as a giant bed for family camp outs in the lounge. Honestly it is worth every penny.

Perfect for kids!

We love our play couch, lots of fun and different creations been enjoyed already. Comfy and lovely fabric. Quick delivery too!

Awesome

I was worried my kids were too old (4+6) for this. But I bit the bullet and I'm so glad. They've played with it daily for weeks now and I love seeing all the new aspects to what they build. It's absolutely brilliant. So good. Great design and well thought through. Thoroughly enjoying it. And hopefully will for years to come.

Super fun!

The kids love it! Fantastic quality product and keeps the kids entertained for hours along with the rest of the play couch pieces! Would highly recommend!

Very very good fun!

It is very very very good for kids, I like creating things, it is comfy even for my Grandpa. I will play with it for a long time!
