IKASA 59" Giant Teddy Bear Plush Toy - Extra Large Brown Stuffed Animal for Kids & Adults | Perfect for Valentine's Day Gifts, Nursery Decor, Birthday Presents and Cuddling Companion

Great value. Great Gift. Love how huggable this bear is, which is what we wanted. We bought this for our four year old granddaughter, but her sisters (ages 18 months to 8 years old) love it too. It's just the right size to hug, lay on or carry around (drag around for the 18 month old).It's not too stuffed or too limp. If you want an over-stuffed, firm stuffy, this is not for you. If you want something soft and huggable, you found it.I specifically did not want one with "fancy" decals or designs on the feet or elsewhere and this bear was perfect for that.My husband laughed at the funny looking shrink-wrapped package we received and I had a little concern due to some of the negative reviews. But it plumped up nicely by giving it a few minutes unwrapped, then putting it in the dryer on the lowest heat setting for about half an hour (it could have been longer or shorter- just fluff it as long as needed). I didn't tug at any of the stuffing to loosen it, though I suspect you could do a bit of that too - I'm just not convinced you need too. Oh, the cute bow fluffed out as well. ?One star less for softness, not because it isn't soft - It is! But because there are a few materials out there that are softer - and much more expensive.
