## Description

desertcart.com : Sophie la girafe | Handcrafted for 60 Years in France | Natural Rubber | Designed for Teething Babies | Awaken All 5 Senses | Easy to Clean (616324) : Baby Teether Toys : Baby

Review: Great product! Perfect for a busy baby. - My husband gave me a strange look when I announced that I bought an almost $20 squeak toy, but after having this for six (6) months he now understands that it was worth it! The product description of this toy seems a little whimsical when it describes how it is a toy for all the senses; however, I am 100% sold. Besides the smell (it doesn't really seem to have a scent), I would argue that this one toy does entice my baby's sense of sight, touch, taste, and hearing. Summary of the PROS: - Color, I like that this toy is not obnoxiously bright blue, pink, green, yellow and orange! Every other toy is an eyesore. - The squeak is slightly annoying (like any squeak toy) but it really does make my baby smile when we are out and he gets fussy - The rubber is soft enough that my baby can chew on it without injuring himself and not too soft to puncture (the chewing sound does make a rubbing rubber sound that makes me cringe, but baby loves it). - The "small" parts, I like that the legs, neck and head are small enough for my baby to grab and chew on without being too small. CONS: - Slightly expensive, but worth it in my opinion. - Another mom friend said that the squeak sounds similar to that of her dog's toys so the dog likes to play with this too. Having two (2) dogs that love squeak toys I am amazed that my dogs have not touched this toy. - I wish there were real instructions (not just vague information on the box) concerning cleaning. If the squeaker gets wet it sounds like Sophie has a serious cold for a few days until it dries. Along with this I am also potentially concerned about mold or anything growing inside - no worries yet but I can see how this may occur. It may sound strange that all of my PROS seemed to have CONS attached, but I would like to be clear - I would buy this product again and I would highly recommend this product to anyone with an infant.
Review: I LOVE Sophie...but blame myself too - I honestly think that the first thing that caught my eye while reading the reviews was the review where a Dad was taping on You tube his reviews of USED Sophies. Ok...that's just disgusting and knowing that it is a teething toy and will be going into your child, grandchild, niece, nephew, friends or whomever's mouth - SHOULD YOU PURCHASE IT USED??? That being said, I have purchased a NEW Sophie for every one of my grand kids. I didn't want it being handed down to siblings because its a teething toy and will be going into their mouths to help ease teething pain. The other reason, is because even at older ages (almost 2) and getting those pesky molars, they were still using it. They even knew which one belonged to whom! I'm also not naive enough to think that these aren't dirty inside of them. Especially when I realized that Sophie has an opening for moisture to enter. When you think about it, what about all of those tub toys that are submerged and the child picks them up to play and learns that if you squeeze them the water (sometimes very dirty water) comes out of them. What do you think is growing in them? Yet, I don't hear the big hullabaloo over bath toys that people are making over Sophie. Please don't be foolish enough to think that the dirty water isn't finding it's way into their mouth. I've seen one of my grandchildren use it like a drinking fountain! Needless to say, those types of bath toys are not purchased by this grandmother any more and if I catch any of them using it like a drinking fountain, it immediately goes into the garbage. When I really started reading all of the information about the mold growing inside of the Sophie, I think that part of the reason I was so upset, was because it was happening in a toy that my grandchildren LOVE to this day. When they were teething, it never was far from their side. I feel like someone has punched me in the gut! I've been duped! How could this happen to a toy that we all loved so much and did what it was supposed to do...calm our teething children or grandchildren of horrible teething pain. I just feel a little betrayed and yes, I'll be honest; angry at myself for not thinking this could happen to a toy that is in the mouths of our children where moisture can enter the little hole that is in place for the squeak. As a possible solution, because you shouldn't complain, unless you have a possible solution; why don't we take the squeak out?! Our kids don't need to appear as if they are playing with a dog toy. Removing the hole and corresponding squeak, may solve both of the problems - no allowance of moisture to get inside poor Sophie, and no squeak to make our kids look like they are playing with something we purchased in the pet aisle! I love Sophie and my grandchildren love(d) Sophie. It did what it was supposed to do and it did it very well. That's why I have given her 5 Stars. They were also REAL. No fake ones here and I can honestly say that I have never purchased anything from desertcart without doing my due diligence. We can't see what we are purchasing, or smell it, taste it or touch it. Its the very least we should do and I'm not slamming desertcart. I buy from them on a regular basis and love them. I truly put this "blame" on my shoulders. I'm an intelligent person. I should've realized that this could happen just based on the comparison to the tub toys alone. I truly hope that Sophie manufacturers can find a way to fix the issue because it really is a great product.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will buying Sophie for my baby make me a better parent?  How many should I buy?**
A: Absolutely. Or get left behind with the other bad parents.

**Q: I read a few posts on the internet about a recall of Sophie. Check wikipedia. Are the Sophies sold on this Amazon page made after March 2012?**
A: There was never an "official" recall on Sophie. What happened was that Sophie was found by a third party to contain a higher level of Nitrosatable content than allowed in order to conform to the European Safety Standard for teethers and soothers. In response Vulli changed their processing sometime in 2012 and offered a voluntary exchange program for Sophies purchased in Germany. Vulli wont say when exactly the formulation was changed but the new safety test report that showed the reduced Nitrosatable content came out April 2012.  Sophie has always conformed to US Safety Standards so anyone who purchased a Sophie before the formulation change in the USA were not considered eligible for the exchange program. Sophie the Giraffe is such a popular toy that I would be surprised if any of the older Sophies are still currently "on the shelf".  If you want to be sure however the batch number on Sophies leg reveals the manufacture date. My Sophies number is 322060. The last four numbers are the ones you want. The third number on mine (2) stands for the year... the 2 on mine represents 2012. The following three numbers (060) are the day of the year, the 60th day of the year in 2012 was February 29th. So my Sophie was manufactured February 29, 2012, probably right before the formulation change. I hope that makes sense and is helpful to everyone.

**Q: Will Sophie's high likelihood of growing black mold give my child an amazing immune system?**
A: No DUHHH!! How you think beast boy got to be ? 🙄🙄

**Q: What guarantee that this is a real Sophie and not a fake?**
A: I ordered this item twice. One time I got the legitimate Sophie, and one time I received a fake. The box, quality of the toy and quality of the pamphlet inserts is obvious when a fake is sent. The fake was a little smaller of a giraffe and the color was more of a yellow rubber.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sophie the Giraffe- Love at first sight!
*by B***E on September 1, 2012*

After 3 years of Sophie ownership, I finally feel pretty qualified to give an accurate review. Right out of the box I fell in love with it, but my son did not. I attribute this to him being a little too young (2 months old). When he hit the teething stage though, he wanted nothing but Sophie. She is very soft which I think helped contribute to his favoritism (along with the rewarding squeak she makes). She reminds me of the vintage toys of my mom's I used to play with when I was growing up. I read some reviews about people's children chewing right through this. Unless you have a little vampire, I can't see how this is possible. Granted, the material is thin but ours has held up all of this time. I also read a review about its legs being a choking hazard. As with any toy you need to always supervise your young child. There is no way your child is going to choke on this thing if you are there to supervise. The legs that stick out are attached to a GIANT body that you can pull away from your infant/toddler quickly and guess what? When you pull on the body, the legs come with it. My son is now over 3 years old and Sophie is still his favorite toy. She has enjoyed family vacations, joined us at the dinner table (putting in more than her share of high chair time), endured a hospital visit, gone to the beach, played in the sand, gone camping, to sleep-overs, is a must-have at bedtime and she is still going strong. Most of her spots have faded/disappeared now which is no wonder considering all she has been through and that the dye used is natural. She has payed for herself a million times over and I wouldn't hesitate to purchase her again. $18 is nothing compared to the excellent companionship she has given for years. One note of advice if you want the squeaker to last.....be very careful not to get water into the squeaker when you are cleaning it. If you do, let it dry thoroughly before letting your little one play with it. Ours still works, but I can see where the squeaker would get ruined if you get too much water in it. I guess your happiness with Sophie will depend on: 1) your expectations of it and 2) your child's feelings towards it. I can't guarantee that your child is going to take to Sophie like mine did. Because of all the hype with this toy, please do not expect it to be the be-all-end-all in children's playthings. Take it at face value. It's an adorable squeaky giraffe with a big smile on her face. Do not expect it to "babysit" your child or stun them with too many lights and loud noises. It doesn't require batteries, just imagination. Something kids today could probably use more of.
