GUND Sesame Street Elmo Plush Reviews Summary

Size and Proportions

Pros:

• "He's the perfect size for toddler hands...so easy to be carried around by a foot."
• "Perfect size and plushness make it a nice small pillow or neck roll as well."
• "It’s fur stays where it needs to stay and it is washable. It’s a perfect size!"
• "Perfect for my great-granddaughter's first birthday. She's just the right size and cuddly enough to take to bed with her."
• "It's a nice size too, small enough to carry around and it looks like it would go into the washer and dryer when it gets dirty."
• "This is the perfect size for a one year old."
• "Perfect size for a toddler."

Cons:

• "I didn't realize how small this doll is -- maybe the size of a Barbie. Was going to be a gift but not worth it for the price IMO."
• "As said in previous reviews. It’s really small, not worth more than $15."
• "Got a cheaper bert as you can tell from the picture. The Bert I have only has one black line for a mouth.. the one I ordered has an open mouth. Has bigger feet and has more detail. The one I got has less detail. Disappointed."
• "A little smaller than I thought, the tail is a lot of the length and is longer than what's in the picture (my perception at least)."
• "It’s very cute and looks well made but it’s so small for $20!! I thought it would at least be similar in size to the tickle me Elmo but it’s a quarter of the size."
• "This is small half the size I thought it would be the Elmo fur is not quite the right color It has hardly any stuffing overall a very cheap product not some thing that will last through years of love."
• "Looks can be deceiving. This product is not described and I feel a little ripped off. I expected a fairly good sized plush doll. This isn't exactly what I had in mind. It's super small as you can see and certainly not worth what I paid for."

Quality and Durability

Pros:

• "I have had no issues with the stitching or with bits of fur falling out, everything seems to be well made."
• "Gund is always a reliable brand for quality stuffed animals. My nephew (2years old) loved it and it was great quality perfect huggable size for a 2 year old!"
• "It did really well in the wash with absolutely no wear or tear. Great quality and appearance."
• "Even after a few trips through the washing machine it still looks great. Very soft and cuddly."
• "The doll is durable and good for everyday, or night, use."
• "This is a high quality stuffed animal. It's soft and hardy."
• "High quality plush toy. The fur does not shed much if at all and is soft but not itchy like traditional stuffed animals."

Cons:

• "The first day we had this the flower in her hands fell apart then a few days later the flowers in her hair fell apart and now one of her wings are completely destroyed."
• "These dolls are NOT durable. Our 2 year old daughter has gone through 4 of them In the past few months."
• "I purchased this as a Christmas gift for my 3 year old son. The quality isn't the best, but not bad either. The eyes are hollow and made of very thin plastic so within two days of giving it to him Cookie Monster was blind."
• "Toy is not made to stand up to much."
• "The seams feel a little thin so I'm not sure how durable this plush will be in the long run."
• "Poor quality. Had a day. Wing ripped. Hair started falling out."
• "This cookie monster I got has plastic eyes which are a choking hazard for my baby boy, the fur fabric is cheap and sheds a lot."

• "Abby is half the size of a tickle me Elmo. Why so expensive??? For the size she should not be more than 10-12$."
