I was excited to receive the Wubbanub and try it out with my 3 month old son. I thought it was a great idea for a product. My son already was using the Soothie pacifier when riding in the car, but he was having a difficult time keeping it in his mouth. When I am driving, I can reach back and place the pacifier back in his mouth if I am able to find it. Most of the time, however, the pacifier would be just out of my reach in the bottom of his car seat. So, I was excited to use the Wubbanub to see if it would make our time in the car better.
After using the Wubbanub for a couple weeks, there are many things that I really like about it. First, the Wubbanub is well-made. It has a soft material that my son likes to feel. It is easy for him to hold on to, which helps the pacifier to stay in his mouth. If I tuck the stuffed animal under the car seat straps, the Wubbanub doesn’t fall down if the pacifier happens to fall out of his mouth, and it stays within my son’s reach if he tries to get a hold of it again. The Wubbanub is always easy to find. I have lost several pacifiers, but the Wubbanub’s attached stuffed animal makes it easier to see. Lastly, I like the Wubbanub because it is very cute.
There are just a few things that I feel would improve the Wubbanub. First, the pacifier is sewn into the mouth of the stuffed animal. This is great for making sure you don’t lose the pacifier, but makes it difficult to clean and sanitize. Plus, after a while, if the pacifier were to wear out, I would either have to tear it out of the stuffed animal, and try to replace it, or I would have to buy a new Wubbanub. It would be nice if it had a secure way to attach the pacifier, but also a way to remove it for cleaning and such. Lastly, the stuffed animal is very light-weight. If the stuffed animal were a little heavier, it would stay in place better when I give the Wubbanub to my son when he is in places other than his car seat where I can tuck it beneath the straps.
Besides the couple flaws, I believe the Wubbanub is a good product, and my son loves it! I would buy another one.
