Review: Cute, soft and snuggly teddy bear - Such a cute and
cuddly teddy bear! I just love his super soft fur. Very good
quality and a perfect gift for bear lovers. Good size for
snuggling. Sweet face and good value. Exactly as pictured and
described in the listing.
Review: Sweet whimsical 12" bear! - TL;DR version: Gund bears and
stuffed animals have been around since I was a preteen so I
wanted to find Gund teddy bears for two expected great-grands,
one boy and one girl. I looked at all the Gund bears, read many
reviews on each, and narrowed it down to Slumbers and Philbin. I
decided on one of each and I'm delighted with both of them! Super
soft, appear to be well made, and oh so huggable! Comparisons
below and in the attached photo. Because I had already bought a
soft cloth "first doll" for the expected girl, the first bear I
looked for was for the expected boy. I'm fascinated by grizzly
bears and wanted a (sweet) bear with that look for him. Slumbers
seemed to fit that bill. One review said that Slumbers isn't as
weighted as Philbin and although only an inch shorter than the
larger (18" version) Philbin, Slumbers looked a good bit smaller
because of Philbin's larger head. I ordered Slumbers and loved
him so much I immediately ordered another for myself, LOL. I love
his round fat tummy and big bear paws. After a few days of loving
these bears I decided the girl must also get one at her baby
shower, too, along with the soft doll (both are also getting
small white fluffy lambs, but oh well!), but I wanted a different
style for her and maybe a lighter color. Philbin is available in
light and dark fur in two sizes. I was afraid the larger 18"
Philbin would be too big and maybe heavier so I decided on the
12" beige Philbin. He arrived today and is also perfect! Both
look just like the photos on their product pages and both are
adorable. Both will easily sit unsupported, although I can't
detect that either is weighted. Both are lightweight. Both's legs
will hang down when picked up. (I don't understand the review
that said Slumbers is in a permanent sitting position; he isn't.)
Both are very, very soft, have sweet faces, and are totally
lovable and huggable. Both came sealed in a Gund plastic bag with
an attached Gund tag and sewn-in label. The website says surface
washable only, but several reviews mention gently washing and air
drying with no harm. Slumbers is a 17" bear (about 11" when
seated), and I got the 12" Philbin (9" when seated). Slumbers has
a bigger body/tummy and smaller head and has a sweet papa bear
look. Philbin has a proportionally larger head and smaller body
and he has a sweet, more whimsical look. Philbin's front paws are
proportionally larger. I love the big bear paws on their hind
legs and both have those. Very pleased with these bears, and any
of the others would probably be just as adorable. They also seem
to be a good value for the brand and quality at the price I paid
(about $24 for each.) However, the prices vary greatly from day
to day, sometimes even doubling. These are great teddy bears for
the young or old and I hope the babies will love them. Edit to
add: Their fur is not scraggly-looking! No idea why the photo
looks that way. They are both good-looking bears.
