Why Choose Nook?

WHY CHOOSE NOOK?

Since launching as the Original Australian Play Sofa back in 2020, we have seen an explosion in imported play couches!

So what makes NooK different and why should you invest in our quality play products? We know we have created the best play couch in Australia but we thought we'd make your research a bit easier and list the really important things that make your NooK a great investment!

WE NEVER DISCOUNT

As an Australian Made Business focused on the highest quality products, it is challenging to keep our pricing as low as possible. At NooK you are paying for quality components and expert construction by our talented local team of sewing technicians. We have made the decision to set consistent pricing at the best possible levels year-round so we do not go on sale or offer discount codes at NooK.

What does this mean? You can feel confident that the pricing reflects the quality you receive for a locally made product shipped direct to you from our Sydney Factory (and that you won't find it cheaper next week!)

100% AUSTRALIAN MADE

From our Sydney Factory located on the beautiful Northern Beaches, we make our NooKs from scratch! We don't import covers and put the foam inside - we stitch every stitch, connect all of the 56 fabric panels, fill with Australian Made foam and Quality Control to the highest standards before we send them on their way to you.

What does this mean? That we create the highest quality products, ones that we can truly stand behind and that support our local community of employees and other small Australian businesses!

GECA CERTIFIED FOAM

All NooK Foams are 100% Australian Made and certified by GECA to standards up to twice as strong as imported Certi-Pur foams. NooK foams are guaranteed to contain no CFCs, PFAS, Methylene Chloride or Formaldehyde. The best play couch needs the best foam!

What does this mean? We insisted on Australian Made foams to protect our children, and our future, from disposable, low-quality, imported foams. We wanted to ensure our NooKs survived years of happy play and didn't end up flat and in landfill within months!

ZIP TOGETHER VERSATILITY

We know that the NooK is an investment piece - and it was our mission to make them as versatile as possible! This is why we invested the time and effort to create a connecting zip between our base cushions. The Zip-Apart versatility means NooK base cushions can be used separately as 4 square bases, or zipped together in pairs. Join your base to a Den extension for even more building fun as well!

What does this mean? NooKs are the most versatile play couch around, and also save you extra time when you need to pop a cushion cover in the machine!

HIGHEST QUALITY FABRICS

In working exclusively with Warwick Fabrics, we have prioritised the most beautiful, long wearing fabrics for our NooK collections. All fabrics are tested to Australian Fire and Safety standards as well as Oeko-Tex Standard 100. From the largest to the smallest components, all have been rigorously chosen and tested here at NooK. In creating our NooK Quality we have chosen to work with only the best local suppliers - Oeko-Tex certified Warwick Fabrics for the highest quality fabric options; YKK Safety Zips for the most reliable fastenings and Coats threads for strength in our seams.

What does this mean? That we can truly stand behind our quality. We know our NooKs from back in 2020 look just as good today, and that is quality we can be proud of!

NEVER COMPRESSED

Shipping would be so much easier if we just compressed our NooKs like other brands - so why don't we? Because foam is not made to be compressed and this damages its structure and longevity. We have always focused on creating the best possible products, so whether you buy your NooK from Sydney, Singapore or San Francisco, you will receive our quality uncompressed foam!

What does this mean? NooKs are NEVER compressed so will not be misshapen, damaged or go flat. Your NooK can stay boxed as long as needed and this WON'T void your warranty!

AWARD WINNING DESIGN

We were pretty chuffed when we won the prestigious GOLD Good Design Award for our NooK in 2021... this was a testament to everything that is important to us here at NooK: unique design, quality production and a focus on creating something new and exciting!

What does this mean? No matter what you purchase from us here at NooK, you will know that time and effort has gone into creating the best possible components. We will never be content with just a copy!
