I was one of the first to receive my order so I've had my weighted coyote plush for a little while now. I quickly grew attached to the little guy and he became my Emotional Support Plush, for good reason. But in that time, I've been able to do a thorough quality check, as someone who collects and restores plush animals for a hobby and profession.
The first thing I will say is, this toy is absolutely adorable! Personally I would have liked it to be a little bigger but that's just my preference. It has a good weight to it that is therapeutic but also safe as long as it isn't thrown or dropped from higher than a few feet. The embroidery is done well but a little thick so it's somewhat evident to physical touch. The fur on the other hand isn't particularly pleasant to the touch. It's not the softest and after some play/travel, begins to mat quite obviously. Because I have a lot of experience, I'm able to comb out the mats with a cat brush (also known as a fursuit brush) but it mats up relatively quickly again. I've started putting tiny dog clothes on mine to prevent the mats from collecting dirt but that does cause significant matting under the fabric as well. I noticed that the inner ear triangle of fabric isn't attached in the best way and I'm suspecting it's actually glued on rather than sewn. In some areas, mainly the underside of the head/neck, the scruff added has the backing exposed and is quite unpleasant to the touch, particularly for those needing physical comfort in weighted form (I'm autistic/ADHD and it can be very off putting to accidentally caress. The only other negative, that doesn't even technically count in my book, would be that; the string that is used to give the illusion of separate toes, came loose. This happens in most (non display) toys with this feature but it happened a little quicker than I'm use to which lost it some points.
Overall though, I definitely am satisfied with the item simply with some quality notes based on my own experience of collecting. I would still recommend others to buy one, especially if you are looking for a comfort item or sleep-aid rather than regularly played with toy.
