- Its had to get the doll to cry and when you do there is too much water. The head sits to the side all the time. its mouth doesnt move anymore. Takes alot of battery changes to run the doll.

Roberta, Great Oakley, Corby, Northants

+ Annabell is very real like, my granddaughter, Annabel, has the previous model and she absolutely loves it, so wanted the updated Annabell. It is very safe for her to play with and imitates a real baby which is what little girls want!

- Couldn't find any other than the price which I feel is a little bit expensive, and would have wished to see maybe some outfits with the doll.

+ It teaches the children about consequence and how to be gentle, they learn that if he baby cries you need to work out what the baby needs and what happens when they get it. It teaches them to be gentle and encourages communication.

- none except sometimes I just wish the batteries would run out because they just love to hear baby cry and we have three baby annabels in the house. Oh joy!!!!!!

Emma, Nottingham

+ My 3 year old loves this doll - it cries, turns its head to her voice and quietens when she sings to it. Its a nice size for her to carry - not too heavy as some dolls which make noises are. Batteries seem to last a long time in it - even when it's turned on all day long.

- Clothes and accessories designed for this particular doll are expensive! I tend to buy small real baby clothes which are a lot cheaper and last longer.

Sarah, York , “Mother of baby &”

+ good actions, quality item, fully functional just like a real baby (but without the nappies)
My 2 half year old loves the burping action and likes to 'shush' her to sleep

- Drains batteries very quickly!! No warning.....it just burps then goes quiet! need premium brand batteries to make it work more than 1/2 hour When drinking from bottle, if the batteries die before the tears arrive then poor baby annabelle gets very wet! Scary head turning action! Very heavy for a doll

+ The way beby Annabel's head turns when spoken to; although at times there seems to be a delay in the movement of the head; a possible recommendation could be to speed up the response time.

- The outfit supplied is very poor in appearance and quality; and baby Annabel does not go into sleep mode very easily even after feeding and burbing (my granddaughter is always trying to close her eyes when putting her to bed!)
