warmies Microwavable & Weighted Stuffed Animals, Alligator - Soothing Microwave Heating Pad - Lavender Scented Plush Comfort - Cooling & Warming Stuffed Animal for Boys, Girls, Babies & Toddlers

Very cute and works great!

Five stars do not do these stuffed animals justice. I gave this little guy as a gift but have bought quite a few warmers stiffed animals, most as gifts. Straight out of the package they STINK. The lavender smell is not the same as most lavender products. This is French lavender and it wasn’t pleasant. It’s also very strong. The smell does fade some with time but more amazingly is the fact that over time while using it you begin to respond to the smell differently. I’ve noticed this in myself and others that have used warmies. I suppose it’s like smelling coffee, your brain and body just know what’s coming when you smell it. After about a week of being around and heating the animals I now find the smell to be almost pleasant. I don’t think it’s that the smell has changed. I think it’s some kind of response to using them. As for the alligator…he’s cute and cuddly on his own way but I probably wouldn’t choose an alligator again unless someone specifically wanted that animal. The way it’s made all the flax filling just falls to the tail so there’s a lot of area with no stuffing of any kind unless you want to spread the flax filling out every time you move it. This alligator was gifted to a young child that later got a puppy warmies. By far the puppy is the child’s favorite. I think a lot of it has to do with how the alligator is stuffed. Having bought bears, puppy’s, alligator, animal neck warmer…from this company, I can say all but the neck warmers are better and easier to use than the alligator. The neck warmers have the same issue with the flax filling all falling to one area. If you’re looking for which animal holds heat the longest, the koala and moose and other animals shaped like them. All the stuffing in those shaped animals stays together and retains heat well.

My son absolutely loves his alligator, it is so cute! They are soft, cozy, and smell wonderful. It has a lavender scent to it. It is heavy so it works nicely as weighted stuffy as well. The size is perfect actually a little bigger than I was expecting, but I like the size. They stay warm for a decent amount of time compared to rice bags that I’ve had and I haven’t had any issues with leakage yet. My boys have had them for two months and they’re still in great shape so as of now they’re pretty durable. Honestly, these are a bit expensive in my mind, but they are great quality, my son uses it every single nightand hopefully they’ll last a while so as a one time purchase, I would say good value for the money.

This warmies microwaveable and weighted stuffed animal made a great gift for our non verbal g. Son. He loves it.

Super cute and smells great!

This Warmies Alligator was purchased for my 10 year old daughter for Christmas. She has an enormous stuffed animal collection already, but this new edition to her stuffy pack can be used as a heating pad as well! Ingenious! The outside material is soft but durable. The internal pouch is lightly lavender scented and gives off a very tranquil aroma when heated. The media in the heating pouch is appropriately weighty. This product sits nicely on small shoulders or cuddled on the chest or belly. It adds just a bit of weight and warmth to help your child ease off into a sound sleep. My only complaint is that it could be slightly larger. But even that's not a major issue! I highly recommend!

I love the Croc! I’ve used Warmies before and they’re great for period cramps. I got a little upset because I microwaved it too long, thinking it wasn’t hot enough—totally my fault—but then all the little seeds started coming out. So, don’t make the same mistake I did! Make sure to stick exactly to the microwave time in the directions.

This is our second warmie, we love them. Nice smell. Helps warm the crib before bed.
