Everyone is always looking for a Nugget knock off! A new popular option is the Yourigami play couch.
All of these different play couches can be so confusing, and shopping for them online compounds the difficulty in picking one to buy.
Let’s jump in and compare the two!
Note: I own a Nugget but not a Yourigami, but I have nothing against the Yourigami! Click here for my full Nugget review.
What are the differences between a Nugget and a Yourigami Kids Convertible Play Fort?
The Yourigami play couch is a fun set that includes options to add on extras like fort and castle building pieces.
The overall base is smaller than a Nugget, and though it is slightly cheaper than a Nugget, most people agree that a Nugget is better.
According to Reddit and Facebook group comments, the Yourigami is flimsy and doesn’t stand up well to big builds. It’s more suited for lounging or smaller, gentler kids.
But, the add ons make is extra cool.
