SlouchBack Is The Answer To Your Seating Dilemmas

The hoopla surrounding the big game is long gone (or slowly fading) but that doesn’t mean that the sports-themed parties will stop. There’s still plenty of basketball action with the upcoming NCAA playoffs next month.

If you’re expecting a lot of people at your next party, you’re bound to face a seating issue. Inevitably someone has to either get a chair from another room or sit on the floor. So, what’s a host to do?

Let me introduce you to the SlouchBack! It’s an inflatable backer that turns your bed or any surface into additional comfortable seating. The website dubs it as “comfortable dorm room furniture,” but you can use the SlouchBack in a playroom (on a day bed) or even your guest room (on a futon). What a great idea! Here are five reasons why I think SlouchBack is cool:

1. It was invented by two young entrepreneurs.
2. You can choose from six different colors: navy, tan, brown, pink, red and blue. Plus, the cover is made out of machine-washable microsuede.
3. It inflates and deflates in record time — about 30 seconds to be exact.
4. The insulated side pockets can hold your drinks, remote control or your cell phone.
5. Once deflated, it’s about the size of a briefcase. This makes for easy storage under your bed or in your closet.

I wanted to learn more about SlouchBack, so I interviewed Andrew Goetting. He’s SlouchBack’s co-founder and CEO. Here’s what he said: Read the interview here
