  • Artificially intelligent interactive doll
  • Amanda engages you in two-way conversations
  • She laughs, talks, cries, plays games and asks for hugs
  • Amanda's facial expressions change to reflect her mood
  • She is able to interact with her play pieces

  • Amazing Amanda is one of the first ever interactive large dolls that utilizes voice recognition, sensory technology and articulated animatronics, and the result is revolutionary, nurturing play. Amanda is a toddler who speaks, is getting potty trained, and eats the foods that toddlers love. She can recognize her "mommy's" voice and can respond after just hearing it three times! Her facial expressions reflect her emotions. Measures 20 inches tall. Requires 3 "C" batteries (not included).

    Don't waste your money

    Amazing Amanda is not so...
    I bought this doll for my 7-year-old. We followed the directions and played in a quiet room. The doll NEVER recognizes my daughter as her "mommy's voice"...ever! We've reprogrammed it at least a half a dozen times and still it never recognizes her voice. It also doesn't understand commands very well. Furhter, after just six months, her plstic arms and face began to deteriorate and get sticky. Her eyelids are tearing from the deterioration. This is not a wear and tear issue - it is plastic that is just poor quality. I have dolls from when I was a kid that are still in perfect shape. Save your money - this doll is not worth the expense.

    Amanda is Amazing but..

    My 5 years old wanted this doll so bad, I've read the reviews and had seen the doll before, it's pretty much like most people say but I still think she's amazing specially cause it's just a doll.
    I wouldnt pay U$[...] for it, so I waited for the sale.
    It's annoying when Amanda doesnt understand what you're saying but again, she's just a doll, and most of time she understands pretty well.
    I wish the doll could be fed more times, like, when she asks for food she only wants a bite, my girls kinda get frustrated cause they wanted to give like 5 or 6 bites for her, just like when u're feeding a real child, so they have to go all through the "mommy what should we do?" again to give the doll one more bite.
    Another thing, the paint on the dolls lips came out in the first day of use, it should be more durable, besides that, Amanda is fun and I'm happy that I bought it.

    Worth the money and the set-up!

    Our daughter Lovey just made 5 years old today. After reading the host of reviews regarding Amazing Amanda, I did end up ordering her a couple of weeks ago. Shipping was fast so Amanda stayed in her box, locked securely in my car trunk until last nite when I could wrap her in secrecy and look forward to this morning's birthday surprise! My daughter was extremely pleased and excited to receive this doll as a gift. We took maybe 10 minutes to set her up and Amanda had no problem hearing or understanding myself or my daughter. We took Amanda with us shopping and to lunch and while Amanda did need a lot of attention (especially going potty), it did teach my daughter patience (she's usually the one who is demanding so this was an interesting lesson for her). Amanda is fast asleep and my daughter is enjoying the quiet but I know she's looking forward to tomorrow and the chance to feed, play and sing with Amanda (who's wakeup time was set to 7 AM). :-) Overall, a great purchase and we're very pleased!

    A toy that children and parents both love
    Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 
    I am talking to my 10 year old daughter as I write this review. She received Amanda as a Christmas present last month. She likes Amanda very much because you can talk to her, feed her, sing songs to her, and play with her. As a parent I like Amanda because good toys for children her age are difficult to find if you are a discriminating parent. Amanda seems to have a pleasing "personality", has manners, and teaches good habits. I would recommend this toy for a child who loves dolls and has parents who care to provide wholesome activities for their child.

    Great Doll for the Price

    We have been wanting to buy this doll for our granddaughter for a year now, so we finally decided to get it for her for Christmas. She's 3 years old now and although she drags Amanda everywhere she goes, she doesn't really enjoy the constant requests made by the doll to feed her, play with her and put her on her potty. I myself was amazed at how much this doll could do, but unless you have a child that is TOTALLY a "mommy" type that needs to be needed, this doll will annoy her. She's as cute as could be with skin that feels very realistic, but I think for our granddaughter, she'd be happier if Amanda was a mute.
