View larger. This Gund plush toy is made of high-quality, plush materials with an attention to detail; his fur is unbelievably soft, the detailed pads on his paws are designed to last, and his hat is made of knit fabric, just like the cap you pull over your ears on cool days, and features the famous amazon.com logo in bold white across the front. The bear's ears also poke out through an opening in the cap, making him even more adorable. About Gund: America's Original Plush Toy Company Gund's classic teddy bears have an appeal that spans generations. Everyone from infants to adults can appreciate the results of Gund's quality craftsmanship. This is much of the reason that, in addition to being great playmates, these well-designed bears have established a track record as collectors items. Unlike many cheaply-made toys, Gund bears are prepared to stand the test of time. Gund was one of the first companies to design and produce teddy bears. Founded by German immigrant Adolph Gund in Norwalk, Connecticut in 1898, Gund is the leading soft toy manufacturer in the U.S. Their unique teddy bears and other soft toys are internationally recognized as innovative and high quality. A trademarked under-stuffing technique gives Gund plush bears and toys their unique, extra-huggable feel. Gund has always been committed to product safety, and the company set an important industry standard by devising a way to attach eyes securely to plush animals, preventing them from being pulled out by small children. The company is also known for producing an early, affordable musical toy, and creating well-known characters like Snuffles the bear and Muttsy the dog.

| Great! - but you should know... by Prospero (Southwest USA) 4 Stars November 18, 2009 I bought this for my daughter and can tell you she loves it. She's ~2 and we've been looking for a toy or object for her to "attach" too (security device) and help get her through the night. I can't be more pleased.
The quality is top notch and the materials are both durable and comfortable. Oddly, though it is a polar bear, the look somehow says "warm". The hat is attached to the bear, but only in four places. It is very secure, but could also be removed with some careful work. Not that is should be.
There are two things you should be aware of however. I was expecting the patches of the feet to be suede - they are cloth/felt. I also didn't realize that the white writing on the hat says Amazon.com. Call me naive and not paying attension on that one, as the listing makes it very clear :) While I'm not sure how I feel with a 2 year old playing with branded product, both of the above issues are rather minor IMO.
The price is well within line of similar products (in fact better than some).
Now, if only they came with more hat colors....!
| | Sweet! by L. BLOUIN (Florida, USA) 5 Stars October 13, 2009 So cute! He looks great sitting under or next to our Christmas tree and on top of presents. Glad we got him and can't wait for him to come out again! (He is packed away with the tree in a plastic bag.)
| | A cute bear to keep you company while you read by N. Hawkins (Chicago) 4 Stars June 20, 2009 I bought this originally as a gift for a friend's kid, and ended up keeping it for myself. It feels like an average teddy bear - feels sturdy and well made. However, my dog decided that it was her toy, and now I need another one. If it's sturdy enough to survive attempted destruction by a vicious tiny dog, then it should be great for your home. And for the price, it's not bad.
Amazon.com should make more branded items.
| | Awesome Bear by A. Bush (WA, USA) 5 Stars June 05, 2009 Amazon should really make more Amazon branded products...but for now, this will do. I own multiple, and love them!
| | Does not worth the price asked for by ArcKal (Oak Brook IL, USA) 3 Stars April 09, 2009 Its quite soft and nice looking toy, but with the Amazon tag, so basically I do not feel it gift to somebody. Since I got this as promotion as spend an amount of money and I got this toy for free. but Amazon said it worth $20 which I feel is not. Overall its nice.
