Gund Sesame Street Stuffed Animal Reviews Summary

Size and Proportions

Pros:

• "It's soft, durable, and the perfect size."
• "Perfect size to compliment her tickle me Elmo."
• "This size (13 or 15 inches?)is the PERFECT size!"
• "It's the perfect size for her and the same size as her Elmo she has already."
• "The plush's 11-inch size is just right for little hands to hold and carry around."
• "It's the perfect size for him and is soft, cuddly and the perfect elmo red."
• "This size is perfect for my 1.5-2 year old to carry around everywhere without dragging on the ground, and can easily ride in my purse when she gets tired."

Cons:

• "For the price I think it should be bigger! I know it lists the size but actually it’s 10” and not 11” as described."
• "The photos are misleading because it looks like a fluffy, squishy, good sized Elmo but actually the plushy is skinny and lanky."
• "Abby Cadabby is adorable! However...Cadabby was more like 9 or 10. Still cute but way too small for the price."
• "If you are looking for a bigger size doll this isn’t the one for you."
• "This was way smaller than I had pictures."
• "Although cute, I thought it way very very small. My fault not reading the dimensions."
• "For some reason I didn’t look at the measurements of Big Bird. When it arrived I was struck by how small it was."

Material and Construction Quality

Pros:

• "The attention to detail in the design is great and it accurately captures Abby Cadabby's look perfectly."
• "It was soft and vibrant in colors and I felt certain she would be loved by this little girl."
• "His fur is very silky and soft, and isn't the normal sort of plush fur that you find on most stuffed animals."
• "This Count Von Count plush figurine is a high-quality, well made product that will last many years."
• "The doll was identical to the product images and was extremely well-constructed."
• "The construction was well done, no loose parts to be swallowed accidentally."
• "The materials and construction appear to be made for the long haul, and it's hand washable for the inevitable adventures in the meantime."

Cons:

• "The new tags are scratchy plastic and will need cut off and the old tags are fabric."
• "We've had several of these toys where the eyes have broken."
• "Good stuffed big bird...not a quality sewing job. A hole was in his back where the seams just weren't sewn together and his head and beak are crooked looking."
• "The fur is not soft and smooth looking like the picture. It is rough and scraggly and traps a lot of dirt and dust."
• "Sadly, this is an extremely low-quality children’s toy. The fur comes out when you touch it."
• "The fur feels really synthetic rather than fluffy and is sort of matted and glued around the mouth."
• "The sewing is not super precise. You can’t really SEE it because of the fur but if you feel for the fingers one hand has more defined fingers and the other is really off."

Price and Value

Pros:

• "This is the kind of toy that is a little pricey, but your kiddo will be able to enjoy and play with for years, even with washing."
• "However, after 2 years of continuous play and the fact that it has survived...well...my toddler...makes it worth every penny in my book."
• "Amazon has great prices for these Gund dolls and they are worth the money if your kid likes Sesame Street."
• "I was impressed with how full it was for the price of $19.99!"
• "Worth the price for a brand specific, 'looks-just-like-her' doll."
• "Price was GREAT ... totally worth every penny of it. Strongly recommended!!!"
• "This is a great doll for this price. Very pleased."

Cons:

• "The negative: the more I searched for this, the higher the cost went. Some sites had it on hold until June or July. I wanted it soon so paid the exorbitant price of $47; real cost would have been about $20."
• "I would have to say not really the best value here, even with it being pretty adorable."
• "If I had known how small this doll was, I wouldn't have paid over $20 for it."
• "I also found it a bit overpriced for a stuffed animal but I do think it's worth it because I had a hard time finding a big bird which is my daughter's favorite character of sesame street."
• "The Burt toy is far and away the most expensive Sesame Street toy, and I am not sure why."
• "The price for this item is outrageous...It is very small."
• "The price for this item is outrageous. With shipping it came to $32.00. At best this is a $10.00 toy."
