Since we purchased our Nugget, there has been another company, Foamnasium, that has come out with an almost exact replica of the Nugget.
Similarities: The overall concept and price are exactly the same. Both use Certi-Pur certified foam.
Key Differences:
–The Foamnasium Blocksy cover is made of vinyl, while the Nugget cover is made of microsuede.
–The vinyl surface of the Blocksy makes it more waterproof than the Nugget.
–The Blocksy covers are not removable or machine washable, while the Nugget covers are.
–The Blocksy currently comes in 6 colors, while the Nugget offers a greater variety.
–100% of the Blocksy is made in the United States, while the Nugget sources its fabric from China or El Salvidor.
–The Nugget offers a softer foam in the “cushion” part of the couch, while the Blocksy appears to be the same density throughout.
–There are slight variations in the size. The Blocksy has a longer but narrower base than the Nugget (Blocksy: 70″ x 25″ vs. Nugget: 66″ x 33″). The seat height as well as the cushions are taller on the Nugget than the Blocksy (Seat Height/Total Height: Blocksy: 8″/19″ vs. Nugget: 8.75″/22.25″).
