Product Review #1 - Mr. Ostopus

We bought a singing octopus for ee shuen before she was born. When you press Mr. Octopus head it sing a children's melogy. Whe ee shuen was in the womb, we always put the octopus near suyin's tummy and let Mr. Octopus sing to ee shuen. We hope by doing this ee shuen will have something that she can connects to when she is born.


Mr. Octopus has many nice features.
1. it can sing
2. it has lights blinking for its eyes when it sings
3. it has colourful tentacles
4. one of its tentacles go eh eh eh when u press it (baby ee shuen lovers the sound of it)
5. one of its tentacles has a rattles
6. 2 of its tentacles has chewable rubbers, which we guess for ee shuen to bite when she begins to teeth...

So on average it is a great toy and baby ee shuen just loves it. We used it many times to calm her down and to coax her to sit on her stroller.

However recently we noticed some stain on one of the chewable rubber.



At first we thought it was stains as we bring Mr. Octopus along when we brings ee shuen out. But after looking at it we do not think it is stains from our outing after all. If it is stains, it should be at the outer part of the rubber chewables rather than the inner part. We thinks it is the colour coming out from tentacles.


In the end we are rather dissapointed with the quality of the product, it was quite expensive, and thinking that it coming from a reputable company we should not have colouring coming out like that. And the most worrying part is ee shuen just love to put anything into her mouth and the colouring will definetely find its way into her tummy.


Conclusion - we will file a complain with this company and hopefully get a satisfactory answer from them. In the mean time we will stay away from this brand.
