Materials & Safety

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

Possum Play Couches are recommended for use by children aged 36+ months and adult supervision for safe play is recommended.

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!

So far so good. This is exactly as described and is holding up very well to some hard play from two very active boys. They’re loving the open ended play and endless building of forts and cubby’s. Fabric is grippy but soft so building holds well. Pieces are very shock absorbent and good size. My 3&5yo boys are wrestling and bombing on it with full weight and force with no problems or squishing. Definitely recommend. I don’t think the green is quite the same as pictured. This may be a screen issue

Used everyday

We love this sofa. It's great fun building dens - used for many a game of hide and seek with our 15 month old. It also encourages us to sit on the floor and play more because it's comfy. We've also used it for naps when friends visit. Would highly recommend!

Beautiful and great for my grandson!

The game is constantly changing

The kids don’t get bored because the options grow and build on the ones before. I also like that they can’t really hurt themselves. It’s also a cooperative game, most of the time, with few disagreements. Its messy play though, but easily tidied once they’ve lost interest or more likely gone to bed.the couch was for Christmas and wedges were given for his birthday.

Amazing!

Slides to rock star stage

My boys absolutely love this. From the day we opened it, they were bursting with ideas (aged nearly 5 & 2) from slides to the rock star stage which is a favourite! Highly recommend!

Best ever

I have a new house and this is the only furniture is have and it is hands down the best buy ever. My 2 year bounces off all the pieces, so much so I bought the additional ones too. His cousins who are 10 and 6 also love it. It was a world of play. Also easy to vacuum

Sensory room

Our youngest son is autistic and we bought the Possom Play couch to go in our Sensory Room. It’s been an absolute success. Not only do we use it to build dens and houses, but also under our sensory swing and as beds for sleepovers. It’s brilliant, versatile and cosy. A brilliant addition to our room.

A brilliant concept

Our little one loves his play couch and is always making it into something new!

Loved by a 4 year old and 1 year old

The possum play couch is the best item we’ve bought for our kids. Originally bought for my older child’s room, as he loves to climb, but my 1 year old equally loves it. The amount of things we’ve made out of it since we’ve got it are endless, and since we’ve bought it, my son has decided he wants to sleep on it and not his bed! (We bought it in November!) we’ve already bought the wedges as an add on. Great purchase. Have already recommended to friends.

Not a fad, still having fun

My children were so excited when this arrived. I thought that would wear off but a couple of months in and they are still playing with it every day. Really good buy.

Hours of fun!

Such a versatile piece of furniture; works great as a sofa or chair but even better as a fort, a castle, a slide, teddy bears tent…

The Possum play couch

My daughter loves the play couch and 3 months later she still is not bored of it.
My husband agrees this is the best present I have ever purchased for her.

Great Investment

We bought the play couch for our young grandchildren and it’s a real hit. The imaginative play is a delight to see, especially when Dad plays too. The cushions create tents, forts, thrones, stages, cars and fire engines. Every day something else appears! Great idea and definitely saves the main couch!

Zen room

This is for my meditation room and grand kids when they come - perfect
