they are wonderful! after hearing that this was a gift for my SIL who recently lost her 14 yr old Husk, they offered such kind word!! The clone looks just like her husky!!!! read more

So this business has really impressed me, they made some wonderful clones of my pets and even offer to alter them if you don't love how they turn out. I got a cuddle clone for my boss after they lost their pet and even though the team at cuddle cloens did a beautiful job on it, my boss just felt like it wasn't for them. They personally felt a little too sad to have their clone around the house and wanted to return it. cuddle clones return policy seems too good to be true for a custom product but it was just that easy. I emailed them within 30 days of receiving the clone and they returned the full profit to my original payment method. They said they felt bad we weren't satisfied and even let us keep the cuddle clone after giving us out money back. They just really care about people and the pet you've lost. would definitely recommend them and have loved my personal cuddle clones even though it wasn't right for my boss. Also their communication was really easy and efficient which I appreciate. read more

Paid extra to expedite the order. When I checked on the order over a month later because according to the site it hadn't even started processing and got back a form letter. A few days later I was given a shipping number which was bogus. I informed the company that I was protesting the charges on my card for the product and expedition fee. read more

Absolutely wonderful interaction. I was contacted for more specifics about my Ace to make sure my CC looks perfect. My internet was spotty & I couldn't get the form to send, so I sent an email with the info to CS. Louren replied immediately and forwarded it to the artist. I'm so very grateful for their kindness & compassion. read more

Unfortunately, my main issue with Cuddle Clones is the lack of shipping updates for 2-3 weeks at a time. While the company is based in the U.S., research indicates the products are manufactured overseas. Based on my experience and other customer reviews, I would not recommend paying extra for rush shipping. Items appear to be transported by shipping container regardless, so customers should expect the full estimated 8-week or more delivery timeline listed on their website. read more

Perfect gift for a golfer. The gift box adds to making it easy to wrap. Thank you for making this possible. read more

absolutely incredibly product!!!!!!! I understand that the pet products are custome made. I can envision everyone I know wanting to order something, because the end product is incredible. However, I would warn them of the lengthy process. Perhaps you need a few more hires in the custom design area plus another IT person who can make the order status page useful. That could eliminate the need for a couple of customer service people having to go through the inbox and sending people updates about their order status. if that's the lengthiest piece of the puzzle, transfer them to the design area to learn from the talented veterans. I ordered on Feb 2 and received my order on March 27. I checked the status probably every 2-3 days during those 8 weeks. Every single time I checked, the status said "processing". Imagine if Amazon only had a single status option. If 8 weeks is a standard average timing, let us know that on the site up front Before we complete our order! read more

The product takes time to arrive. It is worth the wait. I did have to do a little trimming of the clone yet once I did it looks great. I hope the gift recipient agrees. The customer service is fantastic. The communication is very helpful. read more

Ordered two sets of pajamas and socks. One with a cat one with a dog. Got two cat socks instead of one with the dog. When presented evidence about the order we placed they continued to say it was what we ordered. They would not replace the socks with the correct order. Save yourself the headache and order from somewhere else. The quality also is not great, the material is so thin, and the pictures of the animal faces are way smaller than what is shown in their ads. read more

I had to say goodbye to my beloved hamster Ellie on Valentine's Day 2018. I finally decided to get an Ellie plushie made after all this time. Even though it's been eight years, I still cried when I opened the box to see her again. The plushie looks just like her! From her pink little nose all the way down to her pink little tail. The white markings on her chin, throat, chest, and tummy were perfect. And her pink little stubby feet were just too adorable. The plushie was even the same size as Ellie. Everything about my cuddle clone is precious and I adore seeing Ellie again everyday on my nightstand. read more

I placed an order Dec 11th. Their website said I needed to pay for a rush order fee to receive before Christmas. Cuddle Clones still shipped it ground and now I won't receive the package until Dec 29th. Below is their response when I asked for a refund of the rush order fee. I paid $50 for PJ bottoms. I completely understand why this is frustrating, and I'm really sorry for the disappointment around the delivery timing. I want to clarify how the $9.99 rush fee works so everything is transparent. The rush service applies only to expediting the production time, not shipping. Your item was produced within the expedited production timeframe, which means the rush service was fulfilled as purchased. The delivery dates shown on our website are estimates, based on typical production and shipping timelines, but they are not a delivery guarantee. Once an order ships, the final delivery timing is fully handled by the carrier, and unfortunately delays--especially during the holidays--are outside of our control. Because the rush production service was completed as promised, we're unable to refund the rush fee at this time. I know this isn't the outcome you were hoping for, and I truly wish I had more flexibility here. Please know your feedback is heard, and I appreciate you taking the time to reach out.

I ordered a Cuddle Clone of my sweet girl on 11/9 and received it on 12/30. I was excited to see her face again but was disappointed when the replica looked more like a corgi. It would've been nice to approve the design beforehand. My return experience was different from others I've seen, which is why I gave this rating. Communication was clear, and I knew I'd be responsible for return shipping. read more

Absolutely Perfect -- A Beautiful Tribute to My Willow I can't say enough good things about my experience with Cuddle Clones. They created the most incredible, lifelike replica of my sweet girl Willow, who passed away in April. The attention to detail was beyond anything I expected -- they truly captured her essence. What meant the most to me was how flexible and understanding they were with my need to get her coloring just right. I was able to send numerous additional photos throughout the process, and they worked closely with me to make sure everything was perfect. When the clone arrived, I was speechless. From the unique markings to the expression in her eyes, it genuinely felt like Willow was back home with me. It's brought so much comfort during a really tough time. This won't be my last order -- I already plan to get a bobblehead, golf head cover, and more to celebrate Willow's memory. Thank you, Cuddle Clones, for giving me a piece of her back. I'm forever grateful. read more

Buyer beware, would give a 0 star if I could! Horrible customer service team if anything goes wrong / unexpected with your item, There is no 'preview' for what you'll end up getting, so you get what you get and don't bother with their customer service, worst I've dealt with! Customer service (Manuela / Zee) were not helpful at all and my issue remains unresolved! Unfortunately, I didn't look at these reviews beforehand (if I had, I wouldn't have purchased from here), do yourself a favor and shop elsewhere! read more

oh my Goodness. I love my purchase. so well made well crafted. I highly recommend shopping here you will not be dissatisfied !! 5 stars all the way read more

Wonderful way to accept the grief after losing a loved pet. We found it really helped us process the emptiness. Also, our other dog has been grieving tremendously. When we got the plush, she instantly began to wag her tail for the first time in a month, still knowing it wasn't real, but she now sleeps with it just like she did her sister. It's given her great comfort. read more

sadly our experience with this company was terrible. everything from shipping delays (i paid for rush shipping), inaccurate order processing and their refusal to make right on their mistake. we spent a lot of money with them and received the wrong pets on the wrong products and they are saying it wasn't their error when in fact it is totally their error. the check out card has a picture of a random pet and says "your order will have your pet" so there's no checks and balance at check. Alexis is the service rep that was emailing me and trying to be nice but still not making good on their errors. I should have known better but a friend recommended them. SMH!! read more

Of course Manuela is going to respond that everything is coincidental, however, cannot deny the plain fact that I ordered on 11/20/2025 and as of 1/19/2026, I still do not have. Again, please look at overall Yelp score. Do you really want to do business with a 2.5? Other businesses out there that do the same thing, please consider. read more

I was very disappointed in the picture on the jogging suit pjs. The picture I submitted should have been taken away from outside light- to avoid any reflection. But there are no such instructions to that effect on the website. Thus, the face is completely whited out on one side. VERY DISAPPOINTING! The company, of course, is not willing to redo or make good on the product, as it was my fault for too much reflected light in the picture. read more

My Cuddle Clone has made my heartbreak bearable. My Cuddle Clones experience was terrific from start to finish. Customer service was so helpful when I encountered a little difficulty at the outset, and my service rep then shepherded me through the whole process. The website updated me on the making of my cuddle baby every step of the way. Most significant was the final product! My cuddle baby was an exact duplicate of my precious dog! I gasped when I opened the package. I can't tell you how much having this clone has eased my grieving process. I take such comfort in it. I was hesitant, at first, but it was absolutely the right thing for me. I am so grateful to have this replica of my boy. It's important to note that, when I researched having a replica made, my AI app listed three companies and provided a chart comparing each. Although Cuddle Clones was the priciest, the AI app thought it would meet my needs the best, and AI was right! read more

Cuddle Clones Lied About My Order--Still No Shipment! I am extremely disappointed with Cuddle Clones--not just because of the shipping delays, but because of the outright misinformation I have received. On February 2, 2025, I placed an order with the four-week rush creation option to help comfort my grieving cat. On February 28, I was told my order was being sent to Akron for final checks and that I would receive tracking information in a few days. When that didn't happen, I reached out on March 7, and Manuela responded that my order was "on its way" with a USPS tracking number. However, that tracking number only shows that a shipping label was created in Jamaica, NY, and the package is still in Pre-Shipment status--which means it hasn't actually been shipped. Now, in response to my complaint, Cuddle Clones is claiming that everything is "proceeding as expected" and that their tracking system is functioning normally. This is false. If my order was "on its way" on March 7, why is it still stuck in Pre-Shipment with no movement in "Jamaica New Jersey" when it was supposed to be in Akron Ohio? The truth is, I have received conflicting information at every step, and instead of addressing the issue, they are doubling down with excuses and false assurances. I wish I had read the reviews before placing my order, because this entire experience has been misleading and frustrating. This wasn't just a random purchase--this was meant to bring comfort to a pet experiencing grief, and instead, I've been strung along with contradictory updates and no clear resolution. Cuddle Clones, if you actually value your customers, stop with the canned responses and start telling the truth. When will my order actually ship? Why was I told conflicting information? I expect answers, not empty reassurances. read more

The absolute worst. They charge extra for guaranteed delivery by Christmas. Then the product arrives late and they refuse to take a return. Unreal. Do not buy from them. They are dishonest and do not jk or their return policy. Avoid. read more

She's beautiful!! Thank you! I sent in LOTS of close-up face pics and the things that I was concerned might not turn out like they should, I sent extra pics (her tail and eyes) with comments about them. I told them she was a mixed breed and had features of both dogs. They NAILED it! This was ordered for me but I'm thinking my son may need it more than me. He can't stop comparing pictures with the Clone. The tag!!! My babies name is on the tag! What an awesome surprise!! I miss my baby but this is as close as I could possibly get. I have had her for a few days now and walking into the house and seeing her!!!!!  I seriously have to STOP myself from doing the normal greeting that her and I had. I wanted to take her to my friends to show her but had errands to run. I didn't take her because I really thought someone would bust the window to get her out of a hot car, live in South Carolina. She's that AMAZING!! Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart and my family's. (FYI - I copied and pasted this review from my original review on the Cuddle Clones website than added a few things since receiving her) read more

As reflected elsewhere throughout these reviews and complaints, I would not recommend ordering any product from this company. I placed an order for a hoodie with an image of our sweet golden retriever on December 1, 2025. This was intended to be a Christmas gift for my son. When checking out, I elected to pay an additional "rush" fee of $10.00 to ensure delivery by December 25th. This was in addition to the addition to the exorbitant $90.00 purchase price, plus $14.00 shipping fee, I paid an additional $10.00 "rush" fee to receive my order by Christmas. My total with tax was $122.24. On December 18, having still not received my order, I contacted customer service and was advised on the same day that the item had been produced and was with the fulfillment team and "we're doing everything we can to expedite shipments." On December 22, my order still had not shipped and I contacted customer service again and was advised that hoodies were experiencing a delay in production. This was contrary to the December 18th email that advised my order had been produced and was awaiting shipment. The order finally arrived on January 6, 2026 and I was disappointed with the result. The embroidered image is oddly shaped and the colors are very muted. I would also note that when ordering the item, the website did not offer the opportunity to review and approve the cropping of the photo uploaded. This is definitely not a $100 item. I then contacted Cuddle Clones reporting my disappointment in both the service and quality of product received and requested a refund. Cuddle Clones responded requesting a photograph of the product, which I quickly sent. I then received a second request for another better-quality photograph. Upon review, the photo I submitted was perfectly adequate and is attached here. Rather than continue to waste more time dealing with this company, I've elected to use my time to warn other customers not to do business with this company. I would strongly recommend seeking another vendor for production of this kind of personalized product. read more

DO NOT BUY FROM HERE! Placed $167 order #CC-693452 on 12/9 with rush processing and expedited shipping for pajamas, which was guaranteed by Christmas. It is now 12/28 and I have not heard from the company at all, despite multiple repeated attempts to contact via email. They are still active on Instagram though, but will not return any emails for shipping updates. Really scummy and deceptive sales and business practices with clear violations of consumer protection laws. Please spread the word! read more

Do not use this company if you expect to receive your order within the timeframe they give you. I've had a horrible time with getting my order. It's been 4 weeks and it's still not here. Because this is an AI run e-commerce site, you can't actually speak to a person and responses take at least 2 days to receive. Choose another option for your pet gift needs because all you get from this one is a hassle and horrible customer service from an AI chat bot. read more

I just received my Cuddle Clone from my two best friends as a gift of my Olivia Rose who has crossed. It brought me to tears. It's an exact replica of my Olivia Rose.

Love you guys and am recommending this to anyone who has lost their fur baby. It helps with grieving. read more

Horrible customer service. The worst there is. I thought this would be a nice gift for my wife for Christmas and I paid extra to ensure delivery in time. I even was assured by one of their customer service reps that it would arrive by Christmas or they would refund me. But here we are a week after Christmas and my product hasn't even shipped yet! And now they are saying too bad and that their customer service rep had no right to offer anything. Don't trust a word they say, but do expect them to take all your money and refuse to refund it. read more

They portray themselves as a US company but all of their products are produced in China. The promises they make for delivery are at best misguided more likely deceptive. Two orders that were made in early December, with extra fees for Rush Production and Rush Delivery are still not at either of the shipping addresses I provided (today is December 26th). When dealing with their "customer service" the answers I get back are always at midnight or 1:00 in the morning meaning they're not on this side of the planet, which also tells me that this company is basically a marketing company they have nothing to do with production or delivery. So I had disappointed people including myself for the holidays and now orders are still saying they're in production! I would never recommend them and obviously will never make the same mistake. read more

Beware! If you order from them they take no responsibility for getting the finished product to you. I paid extra for a rushed order and they represented it was completed in two days but it sat at their processing center for over a week before being shipped. They made no effort to help or correct and now I don't have these items to give as holiday gifts. Poor customer service. read more

This review is llloonnggg overdue! My one and only furchild, Bentley, crossed the rainbow bridge 12.22.23 at 13.5 years old. I was devastated to say the least. Bentley has an IG page and one of his followers who also crossed the rainbow bridge, was now back again but in Cuddle Clone form. I did my research and began piecing together all the photos Cuddle Clone would need to bring my Bentley "back to life". By end of day, 12.23.23, I placed my order. I anxiously waited for BJ (Bentley Jr.) to arrive. All the while, grief is settling in. February 3rd, 2024 BJ arrived! Oh I was too excited!!! I was soooo happy to be reunited in such a way !! Thank you Cuddle Clones for bringing light into a dark moment of time read more

One of the worst experiences I've ever had. I lost my dog January 6th and ordered one of these a couple days later so that I could hold him again. I sent in tons of pictures and even filled up all of the extra slots. It looked nothing like my pet and they didn't even use the eye color I chose. I was devastated when I opened the package. I had the option to return with a list of things to fix which idk how to even go about a list it needed completely redone or get a refund. I was going to get it repaired and I started reading reviews about how they sent for repairs and they sent back the same thing and now they have no more options. Basically sorry we are keeping your money. So I sadly decided that I will return it and try to find somewhere else that can make one even if I have to pay more. I paid 300 though and the worst part is I don't even get all my money back. They are going to take shipping fees plus I had to pay 50 to ship back. They should send me my full refund plus reimbursement for my shipping. I wanted this more than any memorial item I ordered. Why should I lose money because they carelessly made my clone look nothing like my dog. I wouldn't have wanted to return if you did a good job. I think they bank on making money off people somehow and don't even care about what kind of product they send out now. I waited 3 months to hold my pet again only to open the package to see a dog I didn't know. read more

Stay away from Cuddle Clones. I canceled an order with Cuddle Clones on December 8, 2024, 4 minutes after placing the order by mistake. This cancellation was ignored. Now they have charged me for something I did not want. And I was charged for expedited shipping for an item that I did not want and has still not arrived. I wrote multiple times to their customer service canceling the order. It was ignored. This is an awful way to do business. I have posted my displeasure on Yelp and I plan to post my displeasure on any public website where this company is evaluated. Do not do business with this company. December 31, 2024: Now there is a response from Cuddle Clones posted below.They have my email address and my phone number. I have written to Cuddle Clones multiple times asking for this order to be canceled. Your response is window dressing for this website. You have ignored my multiple messages. Now, an item I did not want, arrived at my house on December 30th. Also, I was charged an additional $19.85 for expedited shipping for an order that was sent after Christmas. Everything about this transaction screams: Do not do business with this company. read more

I came across cuddle clones and I thought it was great idea. It sounded so wonderful. I took pictures of every part of him. And he was a purebred golden retriever. Unfortunately the golden retriever they had as their base model was/ is very odd looking, but I thought it just needed his features added in and it would be fine. But no. The package I received has a stiff "golden retriever "and it didn't stand and without falling over. It did not does it. It did not The only bendable part was its feet. IT LOOKED NOTHING LIKE A GOLDEN RETRIEVER! AND IT LOOKED ABSOLUTELY NOTHING LIKE MY DOG. And the return and or adjust policy absolutely baloney. You can do one of two things first you can send it back and have them adjust it, but you can only do that once on their time.( even though it says happiness guaranteed). Secondly, you can just send it back and say no refund your money. They sent me back the exact same dog after I sent it back with changes. They don't know what they're doing. Don't get your hopes up unfortunately unless your dog is the exact model of the dog. Good luck. read more
