I have no idea what kind of chair you're referring to, but my LO loves his beanbag chair! The little "anywhere chair" from Pottery Barn is also quite nice.
Anywhere Chair....we got DS1 the equivalent from Land of Nod when he was this age and he LOVED it. We still have the chair but it hasn't held up nearly as well as friends who have the Pottery Barn Anywhere Chair. We're going to get DS2 an Anywhere Chair but will probably order it from UglySofa.com.
We have an Ugly-where chair (www.uglysofa.com), which is pretty much the same thing as the Pottery Barn Anywhere chair but cheaper. They get the slip covers directly from PB and use their own foam inserts. DD loves it! (ETA: clarity...stupid mobile)
