It’s very fluffy and cute but I genuinely expected it to be bigger with more stuffing. The face looks exactly just like the pictureThis little guy came vacuum packed and puffed up quickly. No weird smells, no hanging threads. It has tight seams and good embroidery. The fabric is nice and soft and unwrinkled. The plushie is nice and squishy.I like plushies like these in the shape of a little roll. This plushie is super cute and has the added bonus that it looks like a popular anime character. Think classic, kind, sweet spirit. This little guy is so similar! Love the aesthetic. Would make a great gift or collectible for a fan of the franchise.One of my sons was obsessed with a Christmas song about getting a hippo when he was much smaller. Guess what he's getting for Christmas? lol When I first got this I didn't even know what it was, just a flat brick sealed in plastic. I wasn't sure what it was until opening it. This stuffed hippo came extremely vacuum-packed. I was worried at first that he would never look quite right. I tried my best to fluff him up until I looked back at the product page and saw that they recommend putting him in the dryer. And that worked wonders! He fluffed as advertised then. This hippo is soft and cuddly, well-stitched, and not firm. But to me he is more of a regular plush, because he doesn't have the kind of bounce back feel that some of the other brands have when they are squeezed. Either way, my son is going to love him.This little plush is adorable. It was used as a prize at a community Halloween Party for the little ones. This was one of the top 10 prizes chosen.I ordered this for my daughter because it reminds me of a character from my neighbor tortoro and some of that merchandise can be hard to find and/or expensive. She really loves this; it’s a very well made, soft plush toy. A very nice gift for tortoro fans, or even just cat fans!Just as pictured. Vacuum sealed cow puffs up nicely after opening. Super cute and and perfect size for cuddling. Ordered for my 18 month old daughter who loves cows. Very happy.I told my partner I had a little pick me up for him because he’d been sick. I tell him to open the bag and out comes this little tiny deflated loaf. This thing is so deflated that it’s almost flat. I had to manually fluff it over and over and over to give it even a little shape. There’s no way it can be used as a pillow. It’s not nearly as stuffed as the product picture. It’s also extremely wrinkled too. The presentation is simply poor. I’m very disappointed and embarrassed to have given that to my partner. He still thinks it’s cute, but I wish I opened it first. I would’ve just sent it back.This whimsical little pillow has it all. It’s the perfect size, soft, and adorable. Just look at that face! How can you resist?
