warmies Shark Plush, Scented with Calming French Lavender, Grey

I bought this as a gift and have gotten nothing but praise for it. It's really soft and I knew it was going to be weighted but it's actually pretty heavy. It's a cute stuffed animal and the colors are good. I love that you can put it in the microwave and use it heated - that was the selling point due to neck pain. You can also freeze it and use it to ice down sore muscles which is great. I didn't notice any smell to it, so nothing good or bad to report there.

I was hesitant purchasing this one I am not going to lie. I’m so glad I gave it a chance! It arrived quickly. Packaged very nicely. It smells great! It heats up nicely. It’s just perfect! It sits behind the neck just right. The shark maintains its heat for much longer than I would have expected. I highly recommend this product. It’s cute, it’s a shark, it’s the perfect size, and it gets the job done! Buy it!

I OWE THIS SHARK MY LIFE (exaggerated slightly) This is my second warmies plush bc I accidentally left the first one behind on a trip (it was an axolotl) and they have truly changed my life as someone with digestive issues and a lot of unpredictable stomach pain as a result. My shark can be the only thing that helps me get out of bed when my stomach hurts, I tie him to my abdomen with a scarf so I don’t have to hold him, and I love how fast I can get immense relief! He is also an angel on a cold day, and I love his cute face, which looks just like the product photo. The scent when he’s microwaved is a bit different than the scent when he is cold (cold is more lavender dominant, hot is more flax dominant), but I think they’re both pleasant. One thing I’ve noticed is he sometimes seems to emanate light moisture when heated but it’s not a big deal at all. Also, I normally use a clothing barrier when he’s fresh out of the oven, which I remove as he cools down a bit. One thing that can be tricky is if you have a smaller microwave, it’s hard to make sure that this particular plush shape keeps rotating the whole time, and I typically have to sorta invert his face to make sure he doesn’t get stuck and burn, so if you also have a smaller microwave there might be some warmies shapes that would be better suited and need less shaping. Also, like with any warmies, you’ll definitely want to clean your microwave before heating him.

Favorite heating pad ever! Only caution is don’t exceed the 90 sec limit because if you do the whole 2 min it’ll start to smell like burnt rice.

I got it for severe period cramps but I’ve used it daily for my anxiety, sleep, back aches, and COVID-19 chills. This little shark is like a lifesaver. I refuse to spend a night without it, I even pack it in my carry on when I fly. Probably one of my favorite buys since you can use it for so many different things, it holds its heat well and the smell is not overbearing :) it’s also a good size to sit on your stomach or even lay on your head for headache relief

Definitely has a nice weight to it, soft and easy to warm up. Does not smell like lavender though. Atleast mine did not. Smelled a little wired but I don’t mind it. I still love it

Well made, soft and the perfect size for cuddling!

Adorable& smells amazing!! Nice and fully filled. Very soft and is decently weighted. Hit when it comes out of microwave oven but let it cool down and it holds its heat.

Does not smell of lavender at all I don’t waste your money on this
