Early in April this year, my European client Jakub told me about this interesting Lamzac Hangout and want to find its suppliers. In fact, Jakub really had an insight in choosing products, as people’s attention for air lounge skyrocketed in just two months. It becomes one of the top-selling products<\/a> that China exported during 2016.<\/p>

In this article, I’ll show you how to import the inflatable air lounge from China, and how to find suppliers of this product in China<\/a> from different aspects. You might not be going to import this item, but you will definitely be able to learn something about how to buy hot selling products from China.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    What’s Lamzac Hangout? Why does it sell so hot?<\/h2>

    Lamzac Hangout is created and designed by a Dutch company called Lamzac. It actually is an inflatable sofa with a unique design and great materials. You’re capable to inflate it or pack it within a simple 10 secs, then it’ll just be comfortable enough to lay on.<\/p>

    Except putting it on the ground, you can also place it in a pool, or even float it in a lake (just like a small boat). I have to say it is the best gift for outdoor recreation fans.<\/p>

    A video “Great of Chilling in The Park<\/b>” was uploaded on Facebook last September by LamZac Company and won a 12.7 million pave view in an extremely short time. It wasn’t available on the market until this April when LamZac just delivered the first batch of goods to their preorder customers.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    Compare Lamzac Hangout with Other Hot Selling Items<\/span><\/h2>

    Almost every year there’re several hot selling items exported to America and other countries from China. If you’re concerned about popular products these years, you must be pretty familiar with such items as loom bands in 2014, selfie stick in early 2015, and of course, the LamZac Air Lounge this summer.<\/p>

    \"Google<\/span><\/p>

    Google Trends has well explained their tendency from 2014 to 2016. The top search interest of LamZac Hangout is nearly 3 times of balancing scooters’. As we all know how crazy the world was for hoverboards and how selfie sticks became an international sensation, it\u2019s not difficult to imagine what would happen to this inflatable sofa.<\/p>

    Although there\u2019re fewer people searching LamZac Hangout on google now, all suppliers I know got more orders in these few months. As this product is more preferably used in the hot season, I guess it’d have a super-hot sale next summer.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    Where is LamZac Hangout Air Lounge produced in China?<\/h2>

    Although Lamzac Hangout was designed by Marijn Oomen in Netherland and its patent belongs to an American company Fatboy<\/a> who\u2019s also in charge of the market, it’s actually made by a Dongguan (a city in Guangdong province) factory. That salesman from the factory told me they completed their first order of 300,000 air lounges in April.<\/p>

    Numbers small factories<\/a><\/span> in China saw this opportunity and got their models to copy when Lamzac first delivered the preorder items in April. Then we got hundreds of manufacturers making air lounges by the next month.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    How to source the inflatable air lounge suppliers in China\uff1f<\/span><\/h2>

    My team was looking for lower pricing suppliers and found most factories are in the cities gathered lots of garment & outdoor goods makers. For example, Shenzhen, Dongguan, Yiwu, Guangzhou, Ningbo<\/strong>, etc. Obviously, it\u2019s a piece of cake for them to copy the air lounge as they\u2019ve enough experience in producing sleeping bags or tents.<\/p>

    \"\"<\/span><\/p>

    In case you need to figure out whether your supplier is the manufacturer or not<\/a>\u00a0when sourcing on Alibaba<\/a>, you might as well see if it’s located in the cities mentioned above and check whether it has items like sleeping bags or tents.<\/p>

    If there\u2019s nothing related to these products, even no polyester or nylon items, probably it\u2019s only a middle man. Even if they do manufacture by themselves, I would be worried about their quality.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    How to Choose Good Quality Air Lounge?<\/h2>

    Beyond question, the air lounge purchased by Lamzac is of great quality. So you can take it as an example and find a vendor with similar quality as well as lower price.<\/p>

    1. Know about the size<\/span><\/h3>

    With a simple structure, it mainly consists of a nylon or polyester outer bag, a PE inner bag, a buckle, and several PE tapes for sealing. The original Lamzac hangout is 245 x 70cm (12.5\u201dx6\u201d). Suppliers might offer a really low price with a smaller size for attraction. Better check with yours whether his price is based on this size or not.<\/p>

    2. Understand these two types: Single bag & Double bags<\/span><\/h3>

    \"\"<\/span><\/p>

    Almost every supplier has these two types of air lounge: single bags and double bags. The single bag only weighs 1.1kg so it\u2019s much easier to be inflated or packed. But the double bags can bear 150kg-200kg (330-440lb) while the other one could only take 100-150kg (220-330lb).<\/p>

    Although an air lounge with one bag is lighter and consumes less material than double bags, it\u2019s more expensive. Because it\u2019s harder to produce and requires more labor.<\/p>

    3. Learn about the material<\/span><\/h3>

    In spite of size and types, the third important thing is the material. Most manufacturers would use polyester 201T instead of nylon 201T. To be honest, nylon possesses higher quality and softer touch than polyester, but it’s much more expensive. Lamzac finally selected polyester for cost-saving. However, if you’re really into the supreme quality, nylon would be your right choice.<\/p>

    \"\"<\/span><\/p>

    4. Check the Tape quality of the opening<\/span><\/h3>

    We’ve compared many samples from different vendors, what separates their qualities is the opening part of the bag, the key to durability.<\/p>
