I rarely give any company perfect rating. Processing, customer service, shipping and communication were very very good. Markings on Kobe were almost perfect but unfortunately missed the mark with his face,

ship cost
I live an hour away from Akron Ohio and shipping charge is $40. This is absolutely unacceptable. Customer service thru chat said theres nothing they can do about the charge. With all the complaints about refunds I cant afford to loose $40 as they are pocketing at least $30 of that. Also cant see all info given once added to cart

Hi Mariah,
I completely understand your concern about shipping costs and want to clarify how our pricing works. Our shipping fees are based on the size, weight, and protective packaging required for each Cuddle Clone, as well as the procedures needed to ensure it arrives safely. These costs reflect the actual expenses of shipping our products, and we don’t add extra handling charges.
I know you live close to our headquarters, but unfortunately, we don’t allow in-person pickups. This is because our facility is not set up for public access and every order must go through our shipping process to ensure it’s tracked and handled properly.
We appreciate your understanding and hope this explanation helps.

The replicas are spot on
The replicas are spot on. I ordered a plush 3 years ago and just ordered a bobblehead. Cuddle Cones does an amazing job! They look exactly like my dog. So impressed. It makes the best gift for my kids for graduation. They will always have their dog with them.

Hi Lillie,
Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful feedback! We’re thrilled to hear that both your plush and your new bobblehead turned out spot-on and brought so much joy to you and your family.
It means a lot to know our work helps keep your pup close, especially as a special graduation gift for your kids. We hope these keepsakes continue to bring smiles for many years to come!

I wasn't sure if she could be replicated because of her unique markings!!! She arrived ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!!!
I decided to get a Cuddle Clone of my daughter's cat Cookie. She had a tragic accident and had to be euthanized. It broke our hearts. I wanted my daughter to have something to hold and cuddle as Cookie was her snuggle buddy! I was curious how well she could be duplicated because she was a Tortoiseshell Cat and had very unique markings! The Cuddle Clone we received was absolutely PERFECT!!! Worth every penny and I would do it again and again! If you're thinking about it, just do it!!! You won't be disappointed...YOU WILL SHED SOME TEARS! But Happy Tears, because you have something physical to honor your lost fur baby!

Hi Tarnisha,
I’m so deeply sorry for your family’s loss of sweet Cookie. We know how special and unique she must have been, and it warms our hearts to hear that her Cuddle Clone captured her one-of-a-kind markings so perfectly.
It means the world to us that this plush can bring your daughter comfort and help keep Cookie’s memory close. Thank you for trusting us with such an important tribute and for sharing your touching experience. Your kind words will inspire our team and other pet parents who are considering a Cuddle Clone.

Do Not Buy From This Company
Bought a cuddle clone as a replica of our recently deceased souldog. We are so disappointed and appalled at the result, it is a dishonour to her memory. We had to wait over a month for the item to arrive in the UK, even though we paid extra for a rushed creation. It looked nothing like her at all, it didn't even look like a dog honestly. It looked cheaply made, the fur was rough, the zip looked cheap and kept getting stuck, the heartbeat didn't work at all, the colouring was off and didn't match the pictures we sent of our dog; we paid extra for these things for it to turn out like this... We also kept receiving disrespectful and unethical emails from them talking about our pug, dispite her recent passing and their knowledge of our grief. Do not buy from this company, they do not care or put any effort in. Their support team seem like robots with their lack of empathy. Save yourself the heartbreak and expense, don't buy from this company!

Hi Angel,
I am truly heartbroken to hear about your experience and deeply sorry for the loss of your beloved souldog. We know how important this replica was meant to be, and it’s upsetting to hear that it fell so far short of your expectations — both in quality and in the way our communication came across during such a sensitive time.
Please know this is not the experience we want for any customer, especially when honoring the memory of a cherished pet. If you could provide your order number, I can personally review what happened with your Cuddle Clone and the order process so we can better understand the situation and work toward making this right for you.

My mother lost her fur baby…
My mother lost her fur baby unexpectedly and too soon in January of this year (2025) and since then she has wanted nothing more than to hold her precious Miyo one more time. I decided to give Cuddle Clones a try and I don’t regret it one bit. The second I presented this Cuddle Clones to my mom she instantly cried tears of joy and held him tightly, even putting on the collar that she held onto from the real Miyo. Cuddle Clones has been nothing short of exceptional with the craftsmanship (this plush really does look like a clone—especially with the eyes and fur coloring!) as well as their consistent communication. Just within the first 24 hours of my mother having her Miyo clone, she has carried him around the house, placed him on the corner of her desk while she works (just as the real Miyo used to do), and has even slept with him. She told me that she slept so much better than she has for essentially the whole year thus far. I cannot thank Cuddle Clones enough for helping me fill the Miyo shaped hole in my mother’s heart that so desperately needed to be fixed. This clone could never replace the real one, but it brings such a special and needed comfort to my mom who desperately was lacking it prior to this gift arriving. Thank you all and God bless this company.

Hi Cait,
Thank you so much for sharing your story with us. We’re incredibly sorry to hear about the loss of your mom’s beloved Miyo—losing a cherished fur baby so suddenly is heartbreaking, and we know how deep that pain can run.
Reading how your mom reacted to receiving her Miyo clone brought tears to our eyes. We’re so honored to have played a small part in helping bring her comfort and peace. Knowing she’s been carrying him around, sleeping better, and keeping him by her side just like before is exactly why we do what we do. It's beautiful to hear that she even added his original collar—it sounds like he truly has come home in a way.
Thank you for trusting us with such a meaningful gift, and for your kind words about the likeness and our communication. We’re so grateful to have been a part of this journey with you.

I cried when i received it
I am amazingly suprized at how life like he is, one small thing that is a little bit off is the coloring of the face is too dark but the rest is so life like its like having him back again. He died in a tragic way which damaged my health, gave me ptsd and got me sent to a clinic for 2months and now its like having him back. Even though i know logically its not him but its an amazing comfort. Ive put one of his little jackets on him and im going to fix him with velcro onto a childs skateboard and take him for his walks like i used to, and i dont even car about how stupid i going to look. And he arrived months before the estimated delivery time. 1000 thanks to cuddle clones for their wonderful work. Thank you thank you thank you

Hi Nuances,
Thank you so much for your heartfelt message. We are deeply touched to hear how meaningful your Cuddle Clone has been for you. We're incredibly sorry for the tragic loss you experienced and for all the pain that followed—what you went through sounds truly devastating, and we’re honored to know that your plush clone is bringing even a little bit of comfort back into your life.
It warms our hearts to imagine him in his little jacket, going for walks on his skateboard again. That image is beautiful—not silly at all—and we’re so glad he arrived early and could be there for you when you needed him most.
Thank you again for sharing your story, and we’re sending you love and continued healing.

Hello all at Cuddle Clones
Hello all at Cuddle Clones, when our clones of Rosie and Charlie arrived at our house, we were totally amazed. They were way beyond our expectations. Rosie and Charlie, both of whom passed on this June 30 were like two peas in a pod. They were best buddies for 13+ years, and if we didn’t know any better, we would have sworn they were twins. Couple of years ago, Rosie’s hearing started to decline, and Charlie’s sight also started to fade. If we thought they couldn’t get any closer, they became each other’s eyes and ears. So, as incredibly difficult as it was, we decided they should begin their next journey “together” as well. We couldn’t be selfish and keep one a few months longer just for us. Their health and quality of life had to be the only consideration.
Because of our ages, Charlie and Rosie may have been our last 2 dogs, which has added to our unfathomable grief. Except for four years early in our 50 year marriage, I have never been without at least one dog in my entire life. On June 30, when the vet walked into the room with two syringes, I wished she had 3 of them. Worst day of my life. Now the worst time of the day is our bedtime. Charlie always laid between our heads and Rosie between our knees. True story here----many years ago, I actually dreamt that Sophia Loren was giving me a hickey. Woke up to find Charlie licking my neck. Yes, at the time it was a tad disappointing. Now I would take Charlie over Sophia.
Well thanks again for your excellent work and you now have 2 publicists for your company. Whenever possible, we will be forever talking up your company and its excellent products. Thanks again and love from Dianna and Chuck

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your story with us. We’re deeply touched by your words and truly honored to have been a part of Rosie and Charlie’s journey. It’s clear they shared an incredibly special bond—not only with each other but with you as well. The image of them becoming each other's eyes and ears is one we won’t forget.
We’re so sorry for your loss. It’s clear Rosie and Charlie were more than pets; they were family, constant companions, and cherished hearts in your home. We can’t imagine how hard June 30 must have been, and we hope that your clones bring even a small measure of comfort during this incredibly difficult time.
We’re moved by your support and kind words about our work. It means the world to our team to know that we could help bring some comfort to your hearts, and we’ll be thinking of you with gratitude. Rosie and Charlie sound like they were the very best.
Sending love to you both,
Cuddle Clones Team
