I was also disappointed with this doll . My daughter likes the sleeping features and does not care if it does snore like Darth Vader. But the doll is so stiff , she cannot pick it up and cuddle or play in other ways with it, so it ends up offering very little for her imagination. She is 3 y.o and still likes the cuddlier, smaller and lighter versions which are usually 1+ or 2+, but I am sure she has more fun with her My first baby Annabel without any features, at least she can play with it in any way.
