4 out of 5 stars My grand-daughter loves it   March 12, 2008
I agree with the other reviewers who described the doll as chunky and not that much fun except when on the spinner. We got it for our grand-daughter for her third birthday, along with the mermaid video. She absolutely loves it. I was disappointed that the doll doesn't bend her legs, because we also got the sea-horse carriage to go with it. After the birday party we went to our local discount store and several of the other items in the mermaid line were on sale, so we got Mariana, whose legs bend. Since everything we got from Amazon and the discount store was on sale I feel the cost was reasonable. Now our grand-daughter wants one of each of the dolls in the line! I told her they were all just Dora with different dresses and hair. I asked her what she would do with all those Dora dolls; she immediately piped up, "Play with them!" She is so cute I'll probably get all of them for her!


2 out of 5 stars It's just okay   January 31, 2008

My child (4 years old) likes this toy, but all it does is spin around, use batteries, and the "tail" goes up and down. Fortunately, the doll is removable from the base, but she doesn't play with it that way.

I only purchased it because she'd seen it on TV and requested it for Christmas.



2 out of 5 stars Pretty but not very entertaining   January 13, 2008
My daughter is a huge Dora fan. I've seen this toy in stores and tested it out. It seemed boring so decided not to buy it. Later, I found it for less than $10 on Amazon. The retail price is from $30-$40. I thought it was a great deal therefore I purchased it. My 2 year old likes the twirling. She does it over and over again. But that's about it. The doll of Dora is removable but stiff and heavy so she doesn't carry her along. She does comb Dora's hair with the comb provided and she wears the barret. Dora also tells a story. I suppose if you buy the other dolls sold seperately, they each tell a different story. I'm not planning on buying any. Overall, it was played with for about a week. But it's been about a month ago and she hasn't touched it again.


1 out of 5 stars Busted skirt, broken hearted daughter   January 5, 2008
Same problem as the others, skirt works occasionally. Poor kid thinks it needs batteries. Unfortunately, she trashed the packaging in her excitement and we didn't notice it was broken until the Christmas trash was long gone. No details on how to correct the problem available anywhere either and it's obviously not an isolated incident.

Overpriced and poorly made.



2 out of 5 stars daughter is happy- - parents are not   January 2, 2008

thank goodness we got this product on sale from amazon; like other reviewers our dora twirled flawlessly a few times before her skirt got stuck and did not work properly anymore; my daughter still likes to play with it and in the end that's all that matters to us; not worth the retail price but ok if you get it on sale
