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!

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a play couch?

A play couch is a modular piece of furniture custom designed for kids and fun. With 8 cushions made from high density foam, our play couch is designed to be reconfigured into infinte builds, providing hours of screen free, open-ended play for your family.

What comes in the box?

  • Each Possum Play Couch includes:

  • - 2 connected lower base cushions
    - 2 connected topper cushions
    - 2 triangle cushions
    - BONUS 2 circle cushions

    - Machine washable brushed microsuede covers
    •  

The play couch base cushions attach to each other so you can flip, fold, stack and scale The Possum however you want to arrange it. We compress them all together, vacuum seal, and deliver right to your door.

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.

How big is the box the Possum arrives in?

This is the fun part! We know you don't want a huge box arriving at your doorstep, so your Possum Play Couch will come vacuum rolled and compressed into a very manageable box (31cm x 31cm x 90cm), and weighs 14kgs. 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!

Trustworthy & endless play

I did a lot of research comparing different brands and I'm very pleased we chose Possum. No off gassing horrible smell of foam, solid construction and easy to wash. The kids (1&4) absolutely love it. Still haven't explored all the many different ways to make things with it, so lots more variation to explore. Also it is exceptionally comfy to nap on as an adult!! Can be used as floor bed. Comfier than our IKEA guest bed!

Best Quality, so versatile

I am a grandmother living in a small unit and I have bought this playcouch for the little people. I made this choice because its smaller than a BED. This fits perfectly in my spare room that also houses a toy shelf AND my own stuff, ironing board, washing baskets etc. The play couch means that I have a tidy looking couch in this room, and it is so portable, can be used as a double or a single bed anywhere in the house, its great for sleepovers and cubbies and not taking up lots of space when the kids are not here. I think its the perfect solution for grandparents and will grow with my growing family. I adore it.

Great bean bag

The children love leaping off the settee onto the bean bag. It’s well made and looks like it will take a lot of “punishment”

Great

My 18 month old daughter loves it, it allows her to climb up onto the sofa and down again. It's not too soft so you don't sink into it too much. I also lay down on it when it's been one of those days. We're happy with our purchase

Great fun for the Grandkids

Amazing!

Bought this for our playroom and it has been a staple in our everyday play! So versatile and the kids love it!

Fabulous fun, great for expending energy

Fabulous - great for expending energy especially on rainy days! We build fortresses and assault courses for our 16 month old (he's been using this since about 12 months). The circles are great pretend wheels but also perfect sitting cushions for the little one. Mum and dad also enjoy lying on the cushions in the playpen!!!

Great fun

Wedges have been used as slides, travelator and a great therapy couch for mum and dad!

Sofa for my girls

Best thing I’ve ever bought. We have had sleepovers on it, built many many shops/castles/houses/farms/etc the imagination is endless. It’s actually really comfy for mummy to use as a reading chaise and the kids to play or even nap on! Highly recommended! Worth the £ too.

The Possum Play Couch (with Circle Set)

Immediate Fun

Unpacked it and the kids have played with it every day since. I think I could replace half the toys in their room just with the couch. Great product!

Brilliant bit of kit

I purchased a possum play couch and the arm rests and it’s fantastic. My 1 year old loves climbing my all over it and the base makes a lovely sleep mat for his downstairs naps.
I am also a childminder and the older children I care for absolutely love building different structures out of the couch. They use it as a trampoline sometimes and it holds up really well. There are no signs of wear and tear yet and it’s not been used lightly! Would absolutely recommend this to anyone!
*we have also used this for adults to sleep on and they all reported that it was very comfortable

Best 'toy' we own

Honestly the whole possum play couch is the most used and best thing we bought for our children's playroom. They love it, and whenever friends come to stay their children love it too. It's comfy as a sofa too. Wedge set was a great addition to their play.

love it!!

my son and partner absolutely adore the possum play couch! it’s used every single day in my household. super easy to clean too!

Excellent Purchase

I missed the Christmas delivery deadline by a number of days but somehow it was still delivered in time for the big day. I was seriously impressed by this and really appreciated it. The couch itself lives up to all the reviews and research Id done. My two children use it differently but with equal enthusiasm. We use it as another armchair or footrest ourselves. The cushions are firm and excellent quality, I foresee many years of use and fun with this product.

Just amazing

This is one of the (if not THE) best thing we have ever bought for my daughter! She uses it every day. The possibilities for play are endless & we love pulling it out for movie night too!! The wedge cushions were a fantastic addition and she loves practicing her climbing and balancing. She no longer asks for screen time which is amazing too! Love it!!

Great buy for 3 year old

This is a quality toy and one which our 3 year old has loved from day 1. Tons of different ways to arrange the pieces and safe for our son to stay active and off any screens

Perfect high quality

Very impressed with the quality, no sagging or wrinkling they look great! Our 5yo & 2yo have had so much fun jumping, rolling, climbing these. And a nice place for me to rest in the playroom also.

Grandchildren’s fun lounge

We purchased the lounge with extra arms for two of our younger grandchildren, they are enjoying reading time, being creative making shapes to play on & in. Being well used. This is our 2nd Possum Play lounge we have purchased for grandchildren. Keeps its shape, great for play, relaxing & friends play dates. We are extremely happy with our 2nd purchase & so are our grandchildren. Ages 2, 3 & 5.

Excellent product

My sweet girl adores this couch. It has helped immeasurably with her strength as she works on becoming more mobile.

Great fun

Expensive and big but the kids love it and have tried different ways of playing with it already, so it is worth it!
