To maintain the cleanliness of your luxury bean bags, it is importantl that you keep them dry or should any accidents happen, like spilling of food or drinks, immediately wipe them off with a clean damp cloth.
Upon purchasing a bean bag lounger, check for cleaning and care instructions. See if your bean bag chair can be unfilled and the covered can be washed using a machine or by hand. On this note, this is where waterproof bean bags become all the more practical.
With a waterproof bean bag, cleaning becomes so much easier. A waterproof bean bag lounger from ambient lounge® can easily be wiped, scrubbed or hosed off-much like how you wash a car.

With hygienic bean bags that can be washed or easily sprayed because they are waterproof, disinfecting becomes a walk in the park.
Top Ups and Filling
Bean bag chairs are usually filled with EPS bean bag filling or expanded polystyrene also known as styrofoam. This is probably one of the most important things people need to understand before buying any bean bag furniture, beans sag and compress over time.
When you get a luxury bean bag from ambient lounge®, know that we use high-quality, premium bean bag filling that is comparatively smaller than the usual filling. This means it takes a while longer to compress compared to other EPS bean bag filling. However, even if the bean bag filling is of the highest quality, it is inevitable that the filling will compress. Therefore, it is very much normal that eventually, you will need to top up or add in some more bean bag filling to your bean bags for it to maintain their structure.
Pro Tip: To prolong the need for you to top up, you can look into the option of having your bean bags filled with a mix of foam and EPS beans. The foam acts as a barrier between beans that lessens the pressure altogether. 
Precautions and Safety
You have to remember that structured bean bags by ambient lounge® or any other brand is made out of fabric. Even if your bean bags are top of the line and one of the most high-quality bean bag loungers out there, they can still be ripped, poked or burned.
