Meet the Chunk play ottoman
What’s Chunk®? It’s The World’s First Play Ottoman™ — a sleek, round ottoman with infinite playtime possibilities packed inside.
Why choose Chunk?
Designed with four sturdy foam pieces that nest together, it’s a lava field, a castle, a fishing hole, an arcade game… all cleverly disguised as a fully functional ottoman. Just like the Nugget® play couch, Chunk® is durable enough to handle whatever your kids throw at it — real or imaginary.
Plus, it’s beloved by parents AND experts. TIME named it one of the Best Inventions of 2024. (We’ll hold for applause.)
Go ahead. Play on the furniture.
Durability
Every Chunk® is assembled by real humans in North Carolina, using the same high-quality, long-lasting foam and fabric as the Nugget®, The Original Play Couch™.

Playtime can get messy, which is why all of our fabrics are machine-washable. Visit our FAQs for quick and easy care instructions.

Ideas to Play On™
A little bit about us
We believe every kid is the most creative person on Earth. Kids don’t need more stuff; they just need the right building blocks to spark their growing imaginations. And because Nugget® play furniture blends creativity and style, parents are thrilled to invite that play into their homes.
At first, we just wanted to build a better futon. Our endlessly configurable couch ended up turning into something unexpected: a beloved platform for open-ended play. After more than a decade in business, we’ve now sold 1,000,000+ Nuggets!
We design Nugget® play furniture with purpose, building products that grow with your child. Our team puts thoughtfulness, creativity, and community at the center of all we do — making our business one we’re proud to stand behind (and sit on).

We purchased our Chunk to use as an ottoman + toy storage ottoman in our living room. Our space is small and I hate clutter, so this was the perfect option. We’ve had no wear or tear issues, and the covers wash well. Would definitely recommend!

The kiddo loves playing in it, and it’s a stylish table, ottoman, and storage compartment. Great quality and value.

I was apprehensive to spend the extra money on another Nugget piece, but this was used in our home about four different ways just on Christmas morning alone. My kids love it and use it in so many different ways every single day. My only regret is having not gotten it sooner! We LOVE it!

We mainly ordered this for our son, but it ended up being so useful for adults as well. My husband uses the circle and the top to make a comfy chair we can all sit and game in, while we use the inner circles stacked for a side table too! We’ve used the inner circles and main chunk and top circle to make 2 ottomans at a time. My son loves to hide in it, make a nest out of it, make a giant basketball hoop, make a basket to shoot nerf balls into. And we’ve only had it a week!

My daughter really loves the Chunk, often sets it up as a chair and has been making lots of forts. It's great to have a piece she can be super rough on and it seems to be holding up perfectly (one month in). And she says that it feels special to have this piece of furniture that is just for her.
