Lilly's Love Stevie The Sloth 5lb Premium Weighted Stuffed Animal | Sensory Companion for Kids and Adults | Machine Washable w/Removable Inner | Great Gift

I got this dear little fellow for my Mum. She has dementia and most gifts are forgotten or misunderstood very quickly but she absolutely adores this little character. And he really is a character! That face of his is impossible to see without smiling back at him. His weight makes him comparable to a human baby and as the mother of six and a former nurse and Midwife this really strikes a chord with her. She instinctively picks him up and holds him like a baby in her arms, cooing encouragement and gentle murmurings to him all day. She barely cares what is on TV now, only that the bear is comfortable. Having his name on his neckerchief really helps, too. I can ask how he is and if she doesn't recognise the name well, no problemo, it's right there to show her. The fur is superbly tactile, she loves gently stroking his head and feet and I totally agree with her. He is beautifully put together. Even though she suffers from paranoid episodes when everyone seems against her she remains convinced that this little chap is on her side. His face holds no subtle suggestion of cheekiness or naughty intention, he simply looks really happy and pleased to see you. Even though his eyes are stitched, not plastic replicas, he has a genuine gaze and conveys comfort and support. He really is hard not to greet with a smile of your own. I honestly can't thank the creators enough for this transformational toy. I am sure he would be enjoyed by young children but he is of such excellent quality he really suits older people who appreciate the material and the design. I have started leaving little notes for Mum in his arms and because of the long length and weight of them he really seems to be holding the notes and it never fails to make her smile. "Hello, will you be my Mummy?" Is a firm favourite. He has made her days (and by association, mine too) much more bearable and even enjoyable. For a child, a dependent or even for yourself this delightful little bear is definitely worthy of a good home. Worth every penny. This review is not sponsored or arranged, I paid full price for the bear and I am genuinely delighted to leave a positive review. He came tightly wrapped in plastic and I let him sit freely for a day or two before presenting him but he wasn't badly squashed or deformed by the packaging. He just looked more comfortable after a breather. Thank you Benji and thanks to your creators. You are a very welcome new member of the family ❤️

Purchased this as a gift for my boyfriend who suffers with anxiety. Usually uses a weighted blanket but in the heat, that’s not possible. This is a perfect replacement and keeps him calm and grounded.

This little fella is fantastic very heavy. Love him to bits

I gave this to my mum who has dementia and she loves it. It's very tactile and soothing to touch.

What an excellent idea ,I’m so happy with him ,I suffer from severe depression and this sloth has made me feel safe and secure,I’m a 68 year old lady but he’s coming everywhere with me ,if you feel like a hug then treat yourself to one of these ,thank you amazon

My new baby! As a neurodivergent female, this slothie helps keep me calm and reduces my anxiety. I cut off the cheap scarf and dressed him in baby boy's clothes!

Product as described. My daughter has found it soothing and helps her regulate her senses.

It's not the cuddly bear I was expecting the head looks really quite odd as it's being sent to Australia for our granddaughter I won't know if she likes it yet I'm disappointed with it for the cost of it I wanted to love it

Perfecto!!!

This review is for the Lilly's Love Weighted Stuffed Animal 5 lb. I chose the dog. Positive things are: 1. The overall quality is wonderful. 2. The velcro on the back is very strong and lays nice when closed. It will not come open easily. 3. The weight is accurate as it was a little over 5 lbs. 4. The fur is very soft and he is very cuddly. 5. I was glad his ears were not stitched to his head. I couldn't find a picture showing that so I included one in my review. Negative things are: 1. I didn't not like the bandana around his neck so I removed it. In the back where it was knotted, it was stitched down with a few stitches and they were easily removed. The front of thr bandana is sewn in for about an inch at the middle of his neck. I cut it as close as I could. You can still see a little remnant if you look for it, but just barely. 2. There is an unstuffed area in his back behind the velcro that causes his back to feel indented. I added material to fill this in. 3. I wanted him to weigh 2 lbs more so I put some glass vase filler marbles in a sandwich baggie inside and then topped it off with a dish towel. Now his back no longer says in. 4. The velcro is strong and so it is tough. Although the area is covered in fur, it still has a ripple to it and a hard feel. But there is probably no getting around this. I gave this item 5 stars because the negative things were either my personal preference or things one could easily fix to their liking. I would definitely buy one again.

Il réduit vraiment mon stress et mon anxiété comme je suis une personne qui fait beaucoup d'anxiété ben sa m'aide vraiment pis il es tellement mignon et doux 🥰

Stevie ist einfach nur süß und sehr angenehm. Wenn ich ihn im Arm habe werde ich ruhiger und schlafe besser. Er fühlt sich sehr gut an. Ich würde ihn immer wieder kaufen.

Super. Par contre j’ai voulu défaire le lestage à l’intérieur pour laver la peluche, après 10min à batailler et à risque de tout déchirer j’ai abandonné. Par contre la peluche est super, belle et douce, le poids est top pour moi (mon ancienne faisais 1,6kg et c’était trop peu pour moi). Lestage idéal pour un adulte, je ne recommande pas pour un enfant car ça peut être quand même lourd.
