Sophie is VERY well loved in our house. She's played with frequently by our 10 month old and has been for many months now. Our five year old often uses Sophie to interact with his little sister or to distract her from his toys. She's well made, adorable and gets many compliments.
That said, I use her with some reservation, b/c she's made from natural rubber. On one hand, no synthetic toxins!! However, the more a person is exposed to latex/rubber, the more likely they are to become allergic to it. And, a latex allergy is a lifelong issue, as it's such a common substance. A baby spends a lot of time sucking and chewing on a toy like this and the potential for allergies does concern me. The same goes for pacifiers and bottle nipples (if you need them,) mattresses, etc. made of rubber/latex.
I have a love/hate relationship with Sophie (or any of the similar Vulli toys,) I suppose.
