I received this as a gift and used it frequently from around 3 months old to 1 year old. It was heavily used, so there is a feeling of wear, some fuzzing, and pilling. There are no noticeable stains, scratches, or tears. No name stickers have been applied. The pilling is noticeable up close, but it doesn't stand out as much from a distance... that's the impression I get. Also, I think it has a slight scent of moisturizing cream, so please be aware of this if you are sensitive to smells. ※ There are no smokers in the household, but we do have a cat. We take the utmost care, but please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive or have allergies.
