Enjoying melodic sounds while taking a load off is one of life's simple pleasures that has been encompassed in the Inflatable iMusic Chair. As its name suggests, this seat is a cozy, beanbag-like seating that can be compacted when necessary. Perfect for dorms, playrooms and even studio spaces, it is fun, casual and youthful.
The real draw of the Inflatable iMusic Chair is its built-in speaker system. Resting right next to the protruding head rest, the sound system plays music as soon as a person hooks up their iPod, iPhone or other MP3 player to it. The Inflatable iMusic Chair even has a side pocket to safely store away the portable music device when it is playing.
