Default Baby Alive

The doll is very noisy - the eyelashes make a racket when they open and shut.

Lip colour wore off after 1st bottle. Face gets dirty very quickly and had pen like dots over different bits of the body.

'Poo' started coming out of the legs and arms after the second feed even though the water was running clear through the body.
Bought yesterday afternoon and already taken back this lunch time.

Accessories were very expensive. Although you can use standard newborn nappies.

Got the doll for £32.99 in Toys r us and it is selling for £49.99 in argos!!!

Very poor quality for the price - sorry nothing positive to say!! (The doll brought home was the third one the girls picked up off the shelf all the rest had dodgy eyelashes when they tried to get us to exchange the faulty doll there was only a dodgy eyelash ones left!!)

My daughters were devastated that they had to take the doll back.
We have a baby alive wet and wiggles boy that we haven't had any trouble with(so far!) bought the weekend before. But it doesn't eat only drinks and wets.

Thanks for that. My little one keeps saying that she wants it everytime the advert comes on. I was trying to decide between that and New Baby Annabel. I think that I will get the new Baby Annabel I have seen it for £27.99 in Wilkinsons. Especially after reading what you have said about Baby Alive.

Ruby keeps on about one too! Glad I have read this now though!! Thanks for the heads up! I am trying to get her to want games to play rather than another doll!!!
