Jörgen remembers the call. The fact that the eye came off despite all risk analyses and safety checks was very serious. Still, in hindsight, he still sees that it led to something really good. ”Thanks to what happened, we learned to systematize safety work even more. We established clearer procedures and areas of responsibility”.

Cuddle puppy for my puppy WendySo far it’s holding up. My golden retriever loves it
Great Dog for a Dog!MaxI thought this toy was cute and got it when my golden puppy was the exact same size. He had sharp puppy teeth back then so I wasn’t expecting this plushy to last long but I couldn’t resist the low price. And boy was I wrong! I’m astonished at the built and quality. 4 months later it is still intact even tho my pup plays with it daily and he tends to destroys every other toy I buy him. Since then I have bought it him two more ikea plushies. If i could give 6 starts I would! Great quality!
Soft and Cuddly - beyond beliefAdeleThe dog is lovely - soft and cuddly. The mistake I made was not getting the smaller size as the toddler has difficulty carry it, but she loves it. She will grow into it.
grandkids were very happy.Karingrandkids were very happy.

So soft and fluffyBobbiMy daughter loves this dog. It's actually very big for the price. A definitely cute gift to give.
Love at First SightAnnaMy son is dog obsessed but is also allergic to them. He saw this full sized dog in the store and it was love at first sight! He has barely left it alone since. Great value for money, well made and has given much joy.
Beautiful soft cuddly stuffieLauraBought this as a Christmas present for my daughter. It's so soft and cuddly, could be used as a pillow or cushion. I'm tempted to use it myself! Can't beat the price, and the quality is great.
LoveDanicaMy golden retriever is obsessed with this stuffy. She’s had if for a little bit over a month and it is still in perfect condition, unless her actual dog toys.

Story
The story of a broken eye and what it taught us
The IKEA store in Helsinki, Finland, was full of customers that day back in 1997. Being a textile technologist at Children’s IKEA at the time, Carina Ingelsten ran a course about safety for a group of IKEA co-workers. ”I lifted up a teddy bear and pulled on the legs and arms to show how well they are sewn in place. When I pulled on the plastic eye, something happened that shouldn't – the eye came off”, says Carina. This was a major setback for Children's IKEA, but it was a setback that would lead to important safety improvements.
All soft toys were removed from the store as Carina tried to call her colleagues in Sweden. ”It was a Saturday, so it wasn't that easy to get a hold of people, but in the end Jörgen Svensson, my manager at Children's IKEA, answered and we succeeded in stopping global sales of our soft toys”.
Major consequences
More personal expression
The incident also led to the decision to not use plastic eyes at all. Embroidered eyes were not only safer, they also proved to give more character and personality to the toys. Annie Huldén, a designer who has created many soft toys over the years, agrees. ”The eyes are very important for a soft toy and plastic eyes easily seem too symmetrical and stale, while embroidered eyes are easier to vary in terms of the design, the size of pupils and the eyelashes.” Soft toys at Children's IKEA are loved by children throughout the world. It's a loved friend to play with and find comfort with - and which parents can always feel secure about.
Function solution
Soft toys to hug, again and again
We know our soft toys should handle many years of love. That’s why we’ve chosen comfy materials, embroidered eyes, performed rigorous washing tests – and ensured that we test them for harmful chemicals. Simple to keep clean and fresh since they can be machined washed.
Quality
Sure, they’re cute but are they safe? Absolutely!
You can rest assured knowing that all our children’s products live up to the highest health and safety standards. We put our toys to the test – up against the toughest in the world (much tougher than any two-year-old). All so you can worry less and they can play more.
