Considering a Nugget couch or a Stylized Nest for your kids? Let’s compare them side by side to see which is best for your family.
Everyone is always looking for a Nugget knock off! A new popular option is the Nest.
Let’s jump in and compare the two!
Here are my 12 favorite indoor climbing toys for toddlers!
Note: I own a Nugget but not a Stylized Nest, but I have nothing against the Nest! Click here for my full Nugget review.
What are the differences between a Nugget and a Stylized Nest?
Stylized Nest is another popular Nugget alternative. They have the classic play couch, but what I like about Stylized Nest is all of the add on or additional shapes available!
They also offer a cover to turn a stack of rectangle cushions into a beautiful ottoman which I think is genius!
The Nest does NOT have handles like the Nugget does.
The biggest difference you will notice is that the Next comes with rainbow bolsters instead of triangle pillows. These are large half circle pillows that are gorgeous as a sofa back and seem fun to build with!
They also have 3 buying options:
- The Nest Includes: 1 Thick Base, 1 Thin Topper, 2 Rainbow Bolsters
- The Nest Deluxe Includes: 2 Thick Bases, 2 Rainbow Bolsters
- The Nestling Includes: 1 Thick Base, 1 Rainbow Bolster
