Bean bags

[M5Man]

Easy question, but is there a better brand of bean bag to buy as I dont want one that will split and beans everywhere:(

Whats the best weight to go for? - bearing in mind it will be in my hand luggage when travelling

Not sure on specific bags but a tip I once read was that if you're travelling get a refillable bag and fill it with rice when you get there, it'll save on weight.

I have not used these personally but they have been recommend to me as a good bean bag! You can buy them either full or empty, along with spare inserts etc.

For long distance travel, I use a portable travel pillow. Dual purpose. :)

It has never spilt.

I actually have a friend who uses a bag of rice from the supermarket, its never split and works for him nicely.
