Back to Buyer's Guide: For a Loved One

A cuddly companion

A cuddly companion is chosen by feel, not by looks. It has to be big enough to get both arms around, soft enough that you keep them there, and heavy enough to feel like company. Everything on this list is a proper armful, and soft enough that you keep it there.

These are the teddies that live on sofas and beds rather than in cabinets. They are bought for adults as often as for children, for someone going through a rough patch, for a student leaving home, and quite often for the buyer.

If size matters most, most product pages give the height. If softness matters most, the softest here are often the ones with the longest, loosest fur.
