I purchased a duck as a gift for a relative after the birth of her son. She was thrilled with it and the fact that the ducks can be personalised (albeit only up to seven letters) made it all the more special and meaningful and I know that she appreciated this touch. Being made from bamboo I was pleased with the sustainability of the item which was my primary incentive although on receipt of the product I would have liked there to have been less packaging or an alternative 'filling' used such as discarded or recycled paper and paper tape used rather than cellotape which appeared plastic based. On the whole I was very satisfied with purchase and as a consequence it is awarded four stars.
