Good, with one thing to plan for
Embroidered eyes, so nothing can detach and be swallowed. The one thing to know before ordering: Surface wash only — machine washing permanently mats the plush. To be fair that is written on the product page. I skimmed past it and had to rearrange things afterwards.

Wrong product for my situation
Genuinely my own fault. Posting so somebody else does not repeat it. The listing says who should avoid this: Anyone planning to put it in a cot with a sleeping baby under 12 months. That was my situation and I ordered anyway. It does what it says on the page — it just was not the thing I needed.
