My 5 1/2 year old daughter got this toy for Christmas. She has seen it in the store for months and been begging for it, so Santa ponied up and brought it to her. We've had her less than a week, and the doll is already beginning to deteriorate. The doll 's hair is the first strike. She looks like she got some really bad hair plugs. Even my daughter has noticed how ugly it is. It is very poor quality.
The other reviews are true, the doll is a money sucker and continually needs to eat and have diaper changes. That doesn't bug me so much yet, I realize that is what she's suppose to do. But be prepared, every time she is turned on she wants to eat and drink. My daughter is afraid the doll won't live through the night if she's not fed.
The biggest problem I have with this doll is that her facial skin is nasty. It is made of some weird material that gets dirt stuck in it, all the time. It doesn't wipe off, I am continually cleaning this face. My daughter has had it less than a week, isn't a very messy girl, and the doll's face is already stained with weird particles. The doll's lips have also lost there pink, they began losing their pink with the first bottle of water my daughter fed her.
My last complaint is that the doll's diaper leaks with a full bottle of water and bowl of food. Its gross. I hate changing my own kid's buns, let alone a leaky doll. My daughter needs help getting the food prepared, cleaning the doll after she eats, and changing her diaper. This toy is definitely one for the parent to do with child.
Beware of what your getting yourself into. I'm assuming this doll will be completely trashed within a month. Get more detail about
