We have a couple of these babies(one like the baby pictured & 2 with the smile). These babies do come with a "rose" smell. This will fade significantly if not completely after a couple months. The positioning does make it a little hard to dress, but I don't mind helping her. The little arms are very close to the body which I think is the reason why they are challenging to dress. I like the fact that the baby comes with a nice range of accessories(booties, hospital bracelet, cloth diaper, hat, shirt & little shorts/diaper cover. It adds to the "cuteness" of this set. I also really like the expressions-the smiley one is our favorite, this one & the African American one are reallly cute too). I really wish they offered more expressions for the African American one,too-like a smiley one). My daughter has asked me to make different things for her babies. I have knitted sweaters for them & we also bought a set of Berenguer "boy clothes" because she wanted her 1st baby to be a boy. It was all the same clothes as this set comes with, except in blue. These babies are easy to clean(just take a Clorox wipe) to clean off the face & limbs because with a lot of carrying around, play...they tend to get a bit dirty(on the knees & their little hands). The clothes wash nicely in the washing machine & are very durable. Her baby used to go to preschool & kinder with her so we had to wash the clothes often. She has never brought me any of the clothes crying that something is torn like with other doll clothes. We have even had people mistake her babies for "Real" babies because she puts them in the bottom of the shopping cart when we go to the grocery or ******. Now we just need the African American one! She says her babies "need a new friend"! Overall-these babies are the best you can purchase for play or collecting & at this price, you can afford to get one for just about any kid(including boys) you know that wants one. P.S.-My little boy has one too that he has dressed in "boy clothes" too. (Little boys have to learn how to be good daddies, too). Thank you JC Toys for making such wonderful products!!!!!
The experience was much better this time around. The box actually came to me in one whole and neat piece. =)The doll is lovely. Just as the picture showed. Will be a great experience for my grand-daughter. The doll is not too heavy, skin feels "almost real", the face is cute (but not ordinary), the accessories are quite nice, and micro-mini or preemie clothes do fit this size doll.I believe it will last for a long time while being well-loved!
This is my step daughter's favorite gift received for christmas
my grand daughter love this thank you for the fast delivery very happy thank you timing was perfect.
I bought one of these for both of my daughters. It's a smaller baby, perfect size for my little ones, and they each have a different expression, so they can always tell them apart.
I couldn't be happier with our decision to purchase this babydoll for our 4 year old. We looked around at a lot of places looking for a realistic babydoll to get for her because I am expecting soon and we want her to be involved and feel included in all of the exciting things we get to do with the new baby! This baby by far exceeded our expectations with its realistic look. Very cute and actually resembles my daughter in a lot of ways so I think she will resemble our new addition as well, which will make it even more exciting. Along with the baby, we also got her a little fake diaper set so when we are taking care of our new baby, she can be taking care of her new baby.. If you knew my daughter you would know what a big deal being a mommy means to her so we are thrilled for her to open this on Christmas morning. She is going to LOVE it I highly recommend this to anybody looking for a more realistic looking baby. Especially considering the price of this doll compared to others like it

Purchased this for my 4 year old daughter.... & this baby has not left her side ever since! She is the perfect size for her to hold, care for, and carry around. This was also the best in quality I have seen in a while (spine and belly button look so real). She is all plastic, so she probably isn't a good choice if looking for a hugable doll. Arms & legs do move, but my little one does need help getting her clothes on and off because of the position of limbs. Premie clothes work well on her too! Two versions of this doll were in my local store (other expression is baby with bottom lip tucked in w/grin on her face). I chose the advertised expression so my daughter could "feed" her a bottle.
This baby doll is perfect for my 8 year old daughter. She wanted a baby that looked real. She comes with a hospital bracelet and a cloth diaper and clothes. Just an all around win!
