OceanPals - recommend against

I ordered these for the kids on our recent cruise. I figured $30 for 5 was better than $15-20 for 2 on the ship. I was impressed to begin with... but before the end of the cruise 2 of the animals had holes in them. The holes were in the seams so DW will sew them, but I doubt they will be the last to appear.

 

We bought DS a dolphin on Miracle in Nov 2010, and he still sleeps with it every night. That is a good quality toy and has never had a problem. The set currently offered by BV doesn't seem to be of adequate quality. It's too bad because they look great and are of good size, but not much use if they can't be played with.

 

YMMV: I just wanted to post my experience for other parents.

Thanks for sharing. Sorry they are poor quality...had actually thought about them for Dec cruise.

Thanks for the review! I was considering to split up for small gifts for the cousins. I'll skip and find something else. thanks.
