5.0 out of 5 stars A doll that lives up to her name, September 8, 2005

By	Evan Litton (California, USA) - See all my reviews

Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:2.0 out of 5 stars

In short, this is an amazing doll. In many ways she is like a little person for my daughter to care of. She has a distinct personality and a lot of fun play. My daughter has played with her for hours and she still says new things!

I think the previous bad review may have been related to the age of the child, which was four. The box says five and up. As far as the reliability of the speech recognition, my own daughter can get the doll to work almost all the time. Granted my daughter is seven and has a clear voice. I would NOT recommend this toy to anyone whose daughter has a speech impediment or is a soft talker. (Of course the doll might teach your daughter how to speak louder, which may be a plus.)

Also it states clearly in the instructions that you need to be in a QUIET room, which really is a no-brainer for a product like this. Anyone who has used cell phones or other speech-recognition products knows the drill. Kids however (especially very young ones) dont. So you do have to teach them a bit.

So how does she play? Well the setup is a bit of a pain. You have to set her time and date, and then she asks for your daughter to say her name a few times so she can learn her voice. Then she teaches your daughter how to play with her.

Here are some of the things I've seen her do:
- ask for and go potty. (This is funny and a bit gross. As a man I don't get it but my daughter loves it.)
- eat. (You feed her all kinds of food, which she knows when you put it in her mouth. Feed her the wrong thing and she knows and comments about it.)
- play games. (She sings and plays some animal sounds game. Pretty cute.)
- get sick. (you hug her to make her feel better)
... plus a bunch of other stuff.

She also knows the general time of day, and the holidays, and has things to say about that, too. Another thing is her face is pretty expressive. She will actually pout and put on a sad face in some situations. Her eyebrows move too.

What I can't get over is all you get for the price. For basically the cost of two high-end dolls that do nothing, you get a doll that is almost alive. This is soooo much more interactive.

We also got a batteries low warning but the doll kept running for quite some time after so I just waited for her to stop. That took maybe five hours? Which seems ok to me... Well that's all I can think of. Amazing Amanda is a doll that lives up to her name.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Amanda Doll is Amazing!!!!!, October 26, 2005

By	S Rachelle "S Rachelle" (Denver, CO) - See all my reviews

Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars

I bought this doll for my 5 year old daughter and it is a HIT! It's the best doll she's ever had. We were nervous to purchase her because of all the bad reviews, however we've not had any problems at all with the exception of having to replace batteries, which is really no different than any of her other battery operated toys. This is the best doll ever!

2.0 out of 5 stars Daughters love it, I hate it!, November 29, 2005

By	Lorraine Buckley "Kyla's Mom" (Roseville, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Durability:1.0 out of 5 stars Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars

I recently purchased this doll for my 7-year old daughter. She absolutely loves it and constantly fights over it with her 2-year old sister. I cannot stand it, though! It is annoying, repetitive, and constantly announces that it's batteries are low. This infuriates me! I believe a doll that costs $100.00 should come with rechargeable batteries. Instead, we are putting three new "C" batteries in it every two days. This is no exaggeration! I would not recommend this doll until improvements are made on its battery efficiency.
