Rating Guide

How I Rate Stuffed Animals

I use seven categories. Each one matters for a different reason. I try to be fair, clear, and consistent.

  • Cuddle Score — How comfortable it feels to hold or sleep with
  • Softness — How the fabric feels on your hands and face
  • Squishiness — How squishy the stuffie is
  • Cuteness — How cute the stuffie is
  • Durability — How well it holds up over time
  • Personality — How it looks and feels as a character
  • Overall Companionship — My overall opinion about the stuffie
