The Possum Play Couch is the ultimate modular play sofa for kids. Built out of lightweight but hyper-durable materials, The Possum is really much more than a sofa... it can be configured to turn into a fort, castle, ship, obstacle course, reading nook… your kids’ imaginations are the limit!

• Every Possum Play Couch comes with 8 core pieces:
  
• - 2 connected lower-base squares
• - 2 connected upper-base squares
• - 2 wedge cushions
• - BONUS: 2 circle cushions (Limited Offer)

The play sofa base cushions are attached to each other so you can flip, fold, stack and scale The Possum however you want to arrange it.

We're so glad you asked! Extra shapes really multiply the fun of The Possum. Check out our range of add on shapes here

The Possum Play Couch is squeeeeezed extra small for ease of shipping, and it can be a little shy when it first meets your family. This helps make The Possum easy to transport and makes for a seriously fun unboxing experience!

We suggest you give it a few days to fully grow to its correct shape. Absolutely you can start playing right away, but expect the shape to improve over the first few days.

We recommend you don’t leave your Possum Play Couch in its box for longer than you have to, and no more than 12 weeks after delivery.

Possums purchased from late-September onwards are fine to keep in the box until Christmas Day!

The Possum Play Couch measures 84cm wide, by 168cm long in its standard configuration. The base cushions are 22cm above the ground and 53cm in height to the top of the cushions, in standard configuration. To see the dimensions of each piece check out The Possum Play Couch product page HERE.

We see lots of families fold, stack, display and store The Possum in different ways, so you might configure differently to fit your home.

Possum Play Couches are made of some of the most durable and safe materials on the market!

The Possum's cushions are made entirely out of foam - no hard bars, bolts, of chunky bits to get hurt on. Our foam is CertiPUR-US^® certified, meaning it is made free of mercury, lead, and formaldehyde; safe for your home and the most precious people in it.

The Possum's covers are made from brushed microsuede. We love microsuede because it is super durable (stain resistant, machine washable, shrink-resistant) whilst also being super soft and smooth against the skin! Our textiles are STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® certified meaning they are tested to the highest safety standards and free from any harmful substances and dyes.

It sure is! The Possum Play Couch is made with the highest quality foam and fabric in the world (CertiPUR-US^® certified foam, STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® certified textiles). This means you can rest easy with the knowledge it's made free from harmful nasties.

Multiple play sofas mean the possible number of builds is even bigger. Think double-decker-bus, two-storey-castle, double-hulled-pirate-ship bigger… but we also designed The Possum to be a world of fun if you’ve just gone one, so you can always start there!

The Possum play sofa is suitable for children aged 3 years and over.

The Possum is designed to cater to a range of age groups and to grow with your family for years of everyday play. We see young toddlers build gross motor skills by rolling and crawling over The Possum, school aged kids using their imaginations to dream up and construct all sorts of play worlds, and older kids using it for reading nooks, movie nights, and in their designated chill spaces. We've also had many reports of parents and grandparents loving The Possum as much as their little ones (hello spare bed, extended lounge area, tumbling with the kids, and still lots of fort building...) so there's really no upper age limit!

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 91cm), 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!

Our warehouse elves will be working right up to Christmas Eve, so if you order after the cutoff dates above we will still dispatch in stock items in 1-2 business days, we just can’t be confident they will be delivered in time for Christmas.

• Small spills and spot cleaning can be done with a baby wipe, damp cloth or furniture cleaner.
•  
• For a full clean, our microsuede covers can be zipped off and popped in the wash! Make sure your machine is on cold wash color-safe detergent and a gentle cycle, and then line dry (no tumble-drying) to avoid shrinkage.

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 color-safe detergent and gentle cycle, and then line dry (no tumble-drying) to avoid shrinkage.

The Possum play sofa loves everyone in the family, furry members included, and they seem to love us too! Like any furniture, pet-hair can cling to The Possum, but our microsuede material is super easy to clean and a vacuum or lint-roller will have it looking fresh.

Our covers are water resistant and able to withstand small spills and accidents, but are not waterproof and serious soakings should be avoided. If your couch gets wet, remove the covers and pop it in a well ventilated space to dry out.

If you are are concerned about accidents from little ones or pets that might soak through to the foam we do sell a waterproof liner set for your Possum here: Shop Waterproof Liner Set

Ahhh the great outdoors! It’s fine to bring your Possum Play Couch to a dry outdoor place (like a deck or garage) but don’t leave it there. The Possum is not waterproof so overnight dew or a rain shower is not its friend, and sunlight can fade the fabric covers.

Your play sofa can be folded up for simple storage (or a trip to granny's house) -- the base cushions can all stack or you can flatten them out to slide underneath most beds
