Don't get me wrong, it's a cute cuddly toy. However, as a sleep aid it's completely useless. I bought this as we have always used the lullaby feature on my daughter's monitor but it requires me to press a button when she stirs to play 10 minutes of twinkle twinkle very quietly in her room. I thought this looked like a great alternative since it's cry activated so I wouldn't need to push a button and could potentially sleep through her waking and being soothed back to sleep with a lullaby. I was sadly mistaken. The sounds only play for a few seconds. Not nearly long enough to calm a baby and send them back off to sleep. Literally a few notes of a tune, not even a full verse or chorus and then it stops. If the child is still crying then it plays a few notes of the next one and so on. It's also very misleading as it says automatic shut off after 20 mins. I presumed this meant it would play a lullaby on a loop for 20 mins, but no. Suffice to say I'm very disappointed. It's a sweet toy but that's all.
