Did the instructions also tell you that sometimes bean bag manufacturers glue the zippers shut? I had that issue.

It didn't say anything about glue.

The large bean bag chair has two zippers, but neither one had a zipper pull so I used a paper clip for a zipper pull. I was surprised when I undid the first zipper and found a second one behind it.
