Cute Infant Baby Monkey Halloween B000IGCAEU

Cute Infant Baby Monkey Halloween Costume, 12-18 Months - 2.3 out of 5 stars from 7 customer reviews


DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY!
The costume itself was made with poor craftsmanship. When I opened the package (3 days after receiving it in the mail) the tail was ripped in 3 different places. I did not even get a chance to try it on my son. I called the company and was told that I should have opened it right away to see if there were any problems, I was also told that they do NOT return costumes. Had I known that I would have not purchased it. I was asked if I could repair it myself and then offered a 5 dollar reimbursement for the repair work...this was 5 days ago and I have yet to see the reimbursement on my credit card.

Do not buy from this company, especially for children's costumes.


Cute, but look cheap
The material used to make the costume is thin, you can see right through it.


Somewhat underwhelming
The good news is that I was planning on altering this monkey suit for my daughter anyway, the bad news is I had to do a lot more work on it than I had planned because of it's poor craftsmanship.

First off, the fabric was a let down. It's an incredibly thin terry cloth. So our daughter had to have 2 layers on underneath it in order to not freeze while out trick or treating. That made the outfit very bulky and no where near as cute as it could have looked.

Second, what you see in the image is not what you actually get. In the image, the head piece looks like it's attached (one piece) with the body and it's not. The hood is a tie on, and those ties were made using the same fabric as the monkey suit. Now, you'd think that wouldn't be a big problem since the fabric was thin, but when layered up the way it was to make ties, you ended up with a big ugly bulk of a mess under her chin that never stayed tied and she constantly pulled at, thus pulling the hood...
