It took very long. But what I got was good.
My parents dog had died, we put him to sleep at the ripe old age of 17. He was a family dog. We were all heartbroken as you can imagine. I saw an add for cutebuddi a little while later. I uploaded the photos of our dog and placed the order sometime early in april(2025). It took about two months for them to ship. It was radio silence all the way in between. Shipping took a bit over two weeks. The end result was good. It really looked like our dog. They even added the little details I had asked for. I went to my parents house while they were on vacation. I took the dogbed out of storage and put it where it always stood. I placed the dog miniature on it. Placed a box ontop of it with a note attached saying "woof woof!". I left and the next day my parents arrived home and found the dog. They loved it. My dad cried when he saw it, he said. So despite reading some negative reviews, Cutebuddi fullfilled their end of the deal. And their work was more than good. My parents had a void, I think this filled it just a little bit. Which is exactly what I hoped for. To summarise: *Packaging was good. Neatly in lots of bubblewrap. *Dog sculpture was on the mark. With the little details I asked for. *Paint job was good. But bits of the varnish was still wet. To fix it, I left it in the sun for about 30 minutes, and it was perfect afterwards. *Shipping time was horrendous. So you gotta be patient. *Also I'd like them to send update or update pictures during development of the sculpture. All in all, worth the 70 euros I spend. Thank you!
