The Elf on the Shelf®: A Christmas Tradition

Just wrote a review, didn’t mean to put 5 stars and to add I’m suprised the Elf doesn’t have any feet or shoes. Maybe he got frost bite and they fell off!

My first year doing Elf on the shelf as my daughter is 1. I ordered the official Elf as I thought it would be the best product in terms of quality. Disappointed with the actual Elf. It isn’t flexible. His hands are stitched together so can’t dress him up and he isn’t able to be adjusted in different positions. I’ve seen better products for a lot cheaper. The packaging and book was nice but didn’t think the overall product was good value for money

Elf is cute but I was surprised to find there's no wire or velcro to help to put him in different positions. He can't even sit up on his own. Turns out lots of people end up sewing in their own wire. The stitching is coming loose in a few places which is disappointing. A nice tradition but overpriced for what you actually get. I did like how the box said from the North Pole, and that was my main reason for ordering direct.

Perfect

This is my 1st year trying it, because it looks fun & I thought my son would like it. However, I’ve just taken it out of the box, only to discover it’s not going to be easy to action many of my ideas because the elf barely even sits up without needing to lean it on something! How I’m suppose to pose it differently every day is beyond me!?… Flawed product, and in my opinion falsely marketed.
