Bean Bag Bazaar Dalton Gaming Bean Bag Chair (Charcoal Grey) — water resistant fabric, filling included
Product description
The essentials
If you’re after a gaming chair that doesn’t feel like a chair, the Bean Bag Bazaar Dalton bean bag chair is designed around supportive, high-back lounging. It’s made in the UK and aimed at adults who want something that keeps you comfortable through long sessions—whether that’s gaming, watching films, or reading when it’s a bit chilly outside.
On paper, the big draw is the “structured support” plus a shape that’s meant to mould as you settle in. It’s also delivered pre-filled, so you’re not waiting around for assembly or starting from scratch with stuffing.
That said, bean bag chairs behave differently to rigid seating. Dimensions can vary slightly (it’s bean-filled), and the final feel depends on how you plump and how you adjust the filling over time.
What stands out in use
The Dalton is shaped for comfort with a high back that’s meant to give you support rather than just a soft pile on the floor. When it first arrives, the practical routine is simple: give it a good shake, plump the filling so it settles, and then use it normally so it relaxes into the recliner-style shape you see in the photos.
A quick example of what that means day to day: imagine you’ve got a rainy evening and you want to move from desk-based gaming to couch-style comfort. With this type of chair, you can shift position without feeling locked into one posture, and the filling can be adjusted if you prefer a firmer or more relaxed feel.
Durable, wipe-clean outer for indoor and outdoor
You’re buying for more than just the look. The fabric is described as durable and water resistant, and it’s designed to be easy to wipe clean. That’s a sensible combination if you plan to use it in a games room, conservatory, or even on a covered patio area where it may get the odd splash.
One limitation worth noting: “water resistant” doesn’t automatically mean “weatherproof” in every situation. If your plan is fully exposed outdoor living rain or shine, it’s worth being cautious and treating it as an outdoor option for suitable conditions rather than a guaranteed all-weather outdoor seat.
Filling included (and adjustable)
The chair arrives pre-filled and ready to use with no assembly required. It’s also described as lightweight and easy to move from room to room, which is handy if you switch between indoor lounges and a reading spot.
Where it gets interesting is the comfort tuning. The chair “moulds to your body”, and you can add or remove filling depending on your comfort level. This is a practical feature if you find many bean bags either too saggy or too firm for your taste.

Final verdict
Is it worth it?
It’s a solid pick if you want supportive, high-back bean bag comfort for gaming marathons, movie nights, or relaxed reading—especially if you like the idea of a chair that moulds to you and you’re happy to shake/plump it when it arrives. The fact it’s pre-filled and easy to move makes it feel more “ready to live with” than some bean bags that are more of a DIY project.
You may want to skip it if you’re expecting the same kind of posture control you’d get from more rigid seating, or if you need something that can reliably handle heavy exposure to outdoor weather. Also, because it’s bean-filled, the dimensions may vary slightly, so it’s best not to treat it like a perfectly consistent rigid item.
