JC Toys Hispanic Washable Removable Reviews Summary

Size and Realism

Pros:

• "It is seriously almost comical how large this baby is."
• "The baby is life-sized and life-like so we could practice changing diapers and all that with our toddler before she became a big sister."
• "She's like a life-sized baby, which is what we need for the training class."
• "This baby is HUGE and I love it!"
• "It's a realistic size and very cute! Bought it as a gift for my 3-year old niece and she likes it a lot."
• "This doll is also the size of real newborn baby with decent weight to it."
• "This doll is adorable and as long as a real newborn."

Cons:

• "But I didn't keep it, though, because it just felt uncomfortably large to hold, mainly because of the size of the doll's head."
• "She is bigger than most doll so she doesn't fit it most cradles or high chairs."
• "Whoa, I should have read those dimensions. I was looking for a small doll for my 7 month old and this one looked great. Turns out, the doll is darn near the size of my baby."
• "Even bigger than my newborn."
• "It's a little bigger than a normal newborn baby, but I think that actually helps when I'm using it to demonstrate positioning and maneuvers with my students."
• "The only thing I didn’t love is that the arms seemed a bit awkward in the way that they hung down."
• "Arms are oddly attached so can't dress doll in short sleeve or sleeveless clothes without it looking strange."

Diversity and Representation

Pros:

• "It's so nice to have a wider variety of skin tones and ethnicities available."
• "IT LOOKS LIKE HER! Representation is so important, so I really appreciate having a doll fulfill that need."
• "Wish they had neutral clothing but love they had different races to choose from."
• "Ordered these for grandgirls, they wanted babies that can wear real baby clothes, these babies can wear 0-3mos, and they are adorable and well made..."
• "I got the Hispanic, Caucasian, and Asian ones for my triplet girls 5 year birthday."
• "Also, I love that it comes in so many ethnicities."
• "I chose this one because the majority of my clients are people of color and I wanted education props that reflect them."

Cons:

• "The doll being well made was not cute at all had no eyelashes or eyebrows very pale looked deadly goulish."
• "It kinda creeps me out that the baby does not have eyebrows but my daughter loves her anyways."
• "The doll scared her. Her Asian mother said the doll did not look Asian to her."
• "Also Idk why this baby is labeled Hispanic because it looks African american, but that is what we wanted so the label isnt important but it just seems silly that the company would label it that."
• "I do find also that the undertone on the 'Hispanic' doll is a bit odd, but it may just be that it's on the cooler side, which I don't see as often in skintones of that range."
• "The doll is not the same color in person as in the photos."
• "One more weird thing - the head seems abnormally small... but then my babies had 15 inch heads at birth (yes, OW!)... SO I've never really had a small headed baby."

Quality and Durability

Pros:

• "The clothing and accessories are well made."
• "This baby doll is so cute. It's a good size and is quality made."
• "They are very well made, and were package perfectly."
• "The vinyl and cloth these babies are made of is high quality and durable and the features are just so sweet."
• "This doll is very well made."
• "The construction is very good and withstands clean-ups with wet washcloths and the outfit the doll is wearing has been washed several times."
• "This doll is a good value for the money."

Cons:

• "The fabric on the older doll of our two is balling quite a bit- but she's also been undressed and redressed multiple times a day since her arrival at our house!"
• "When it finally did get opened- we were very disappointed to see that the pillow that was advertised with it did not come."
• "Eyes were crooked."
• "The only draw back is her eyes to not close when she lays down."
• "She loved this doll for the one day she had her. Then her head fell off and my baby was distraught."
• "Does not seem durable for a smaller child."
• "This doll, while seemingly well made, doesn't seem to be THAT much better made than very similar cheaper dolls."
