Design and Appearance

Pros:

• "Love this! The chicken is so unique and super cute and not one you usually find."
• "It’s an adorable, soft and squishy English Bulldog pacifier buddy."
• "This plushie paci is just so cute! I decided to try the Nookums instead of the other popular plushie attached pacifier because I heard some good things about this one."
• "It's absolutely adorable, and super super soft."
• "The little cow is adorable and she loves to cuddle it."
• "The dog itself is really cute and soft and of better quality than I expected."
• "This chicken paci holder is so cute, my daughter took to it instantly!"

Cons:

• "I will say that I find the lion from the name brand to be cuter than this brand of lion- I like the material used by the other brand better."
• "I received this item (dog) and it looks absolutely nothing like the stock photo."
• "The ears on the elephant are tiny. Looks cheap. Lots of strings hanging off stuffed elephant."
• "Not as pictured - way smaller. Baby does not like it.. our paci did not fit."
• "The only problem I have is that the face is a little deformed... doesn't look exactly like the picture."
• "Not nearly as cute and soft as the picture looks. Looks like a cheap stuffed animal."
• "this item is TINY! i opened it up and thought i accidentally ordered a 'mini' version."

Functionality and Ease of Use

Pros:

• "Interchangeable paci holder on mouth works great, haven't had any issues with the rubber piece not holding onto NUK orthodontic paci."
• "The pacifier is removeable for convenient cleaning or changing."
• "Nookums are so awesome. With a detachable pacifier it makes it easy to clean, sterilize the pacifier or even switch it out for the brand your baby prefers."
• "Love these things. Makes finding a paci easy at night. Also looks really cute hanging out of their mouth."
• "It’s soft and the animal toy is a bit heavier than the wubba ones which is nice because it seems to not get thrown by baby so easily it’s more weighted which I feel is kind of the point of these."
• "Having it attached to the gator makes it easier for him to keep track of so it doesn't get lost in the car seat."
• "It holds the binkie securely."

Cons:

• "The silicone loop that holds the paci can easily be pulled off the paci."
• "Okay, so I bought this because I wanted something that would help keep my baby's pacifier in her mouth. The dog was so lightweight it just fell when my daughter would let go of the suction."
• "They are easy to hold but they tend to pull the pacifier out of their mouth."
• "The pacifier flops around instead of being more solid and makes it hard for my six month old son to get it in his mouth."
• "The link between the plush toy and pacifier isn't stiff enough to hold the pacifier in his mouth."
• "It's also pretty light, so it doesn't hold the binky in place like it should."
• "The included binkie is made from a durable rubber/plastic."

Quality and Durability

Pros:

• "It feels nice and heavy duty which is relieving because I’ve seen so many flimsy pacifiers."
• "Washing is easy, it goes straight in the machine."
• "Love these pacis... after I learned I could throw them in the wash, I was a believer."
• "Four parent thumbs up; $16 very well spent!!!"
• "Very good quality, beautiful colours, soft and very lovable."
• "It's held up after many washes and is still super soft to touch and still holds pacifiers just fine!"
• "After multiple washes colours doesn’t fade, fabric still the same good, good quality product."

Cons:

• "Can not put stuff animal in the washer because there is a silicon ring permanently attached... has to be washed by hand. And not dryer either!! That would melt the silicon ring."
• "I noticed fort and grime get caught around the ring loop as well (the part that allows you to attach and detach the animal). Again, not easy to clean."
• "BUT… everything sticks to the pacifier!! It is so hard to clean."
• "The clear plastic ring that goes around the pacifier to hold it in place is not removable, and due to the texture does collect fuzz."
• "I bought the elephant in 2017 with my last baby and loved it. I think there must have been a redesign because I bought the moose for my new baby and it is so light that it doesn’t help the pacifier stay in his mouth."
• "Unfortunately the soother type pacifier can easily be pulled away from this holder."
• "Not worth spending $14 on this, never again buying."

Customer Service

Pros:

• "I recently reached out to the company and was blown away by the customer service I received and direct response by an actual person."
• "Great company with a great product they go above and beyond to provide excellence to their customers."
• "I bought it as a shower gift. I just love the little puppy! It is the most precious gift! My nephew has the giraffe and absolutely loves it so I’m sure my grand baby will love this one! Looks very easy to hold and easy to clean."
• "We have two of these, 1 of which is almost 5 years old and still looks new. Can be used with multiple pacifiers as opposed to similar products. Easy to toss in the washing machine and dryer."
• "Our alligator has been a life saver."
• "I love that it easily and securely clips onto her favorite brand of pacifier (Mam), it's always been hard to find products that do."
• "I also really like that this company makes a variety of stuffed animals."
