Customer Reviews

 Very Skeptic, but it still works - Aug 29, 2010

I read many online reviews for this product and was very skeptic, however my daughters bday was approaching and she really wanted one. We took the chance and so far so good. She ended up getting three pets for her bday and 2 still work properly. 2 out of 3 aint bad. She has had them for 1.5 months.

 Cute but... refurbished? - Aug 06, 2010

Well... it's a battery-powered hamster that makes cute sounds if you touch her nose and makes cute sounds and runs in a random pattern if you touch a certain spot on her back - make sure it does not run on a table because it's likely to fall. For some reason, little girls up to 8 years old love this toy. In fact, my 7 yr. old is crazy about it - she saw it at a friends of hers and she begged me to get her one, counting the days until delivery. Now, that she has her own Zhu Zhu, she's happy.

There was one problem - our Pet, while inside what appeared to be the original, unopened box, was a little dirty. There was dirt on the little wheels she's using to move around and there was dirt on her fur. My theory is that our Pet was refurbished but it's possible that the manufacturing process was dirty and quality control was non-existent.

Given the low price, I am not THAT upset but I am surprised. We managed to remove most of the dirt before we let our girl play with it.

 WARNING: ABOUT SELLER "ABCTOY4me" - Jul 20, 2010

This is a rating for the seller ABCTOY4me and not the product. The reason I am posting in this manner is because it is hard to dig out the REAL feedback about this seller in the midst of all the FAKE FEEDBACK. I have just recently purchased a product from this store and had several major complications. My product not arriving on time without any notification. I, MYSELF, having to contact the seller for them to say that they FORGOT to send it. Then offering a 50% discount, on my placed order, but then days after that, saying the product is not available. This all happened within a time frame of 3 weeks.

Now, about what I think is fake feedback. There was some negative feedback here and there about this seller with a 1 out of 5 stars and similar problems in their descriptions, however the 5 out of 5 stares outweighs the 1 star feedback. The problem is, there are several feedback posts under the same name that give out 5 out of 5 stars with no real description about their experience that are posted to cover up the 1 out of 5 star feedback with detailed descriptions. For Example:

5 out of 5 Stars - David L.
5 out of 5 Stars - David L.
1 out of 5 stars - Katrina D.
5 out of 5 Stars - David L.
5 out of 5 Stars - David L.

and so on... so ask yourself.. is this real feedback?

In Conclusion: BEWARE when Purchasing from ABCTOY4me. They are very unprofessional in their selling business.

 Better than the real thing! - Jun 14, 2010

Tried to get this for my 11 year old for Christmas, but they were sold out and/or VERY expensive. However, was a bargain in June, his birthday. Wasn't sure what he'd think of it--- he has a real hamster (again). He loves it! He has proclaimed it "cool" and has played with it more than anything else he got for his birthday (including his real hamster.) (well, ok, he got an ipod touch and hasn't put THAT down, but still...)
I was pleasantly surprised at his reaction and really the cleverness of the toy. Was worth the [...] I paid! Glad I didn't pay three or four (or more!) times that at Xmas. And it doesn't eat or poop......

 Great!!! - May 30, 2010

This is a very nice Zhu Zhu Pets hamster. Everything works perfectly.
The hamster makes a lot of cute noises, and can run around on hard surfaces. Also, the hamster is very soft! A very entertaining toy that never looses its charm.
Great price too.

 Great, nice toy - May 17, 2010

I think this zhu zhu pet is cute and even though it shouldn't cost THAT much,the toy is kool to play with. Plus, if you get some accessories, it is entertaining to watch the hamster move around. I got the Zhu Zhu pet adventure ball and its SO fun to watch the toy run around in the ball. GREAT TOY!

 lemon of a hamster - Mar 25, 2010

from the beginning, the nose button wouldn't work. and then after a two weeks, it wouldn't go at all. i cleaned out the wheels with tweezers, and then it worked for a day. i tried cleaning it out again, but this time, it won't go at all. it squeaks, but doesn't roll. i can't tell you how very sad & disappointed my son is with his beloved nugget.

 Nugget - Jan 24, 2010

Arrived in good condition. Fun to watch the hamster run around. Kids love it.

 Overpriced!!!! - Jan 22, 2010

Purchased this before Christmas, knowing my daughter wanted one, and we couldn't find them anywhere locally. Bought this one online, got it right before Christmas. Was in a local retailer a couple days before Christmas and noticed they got some in. The price was 20% of what this site charged. I can understand supply and demand, but this was ridiculous!

 Review rating - Jan 21, 2010

I would never purchase from this store again. They charge outrageous prices for this item. In the store the item was $9.99, but the vendor charged almost three times this price.
