The company said it "replaces the need for the physical presence of a person in various moments and situations of everyday life, especially during long lonely nights."
No one likes feeling lonely, especially during the holiday season. A Bulgarian company came up with a solution for this by introducing the world to Loving Bear Puffy. According to them, Puffy is "a very personal product invented by an ordinary woman who is afraid of being alone."
The bear provides "warmth, hugs, and peace" and one can cuddle him before falling asleep, or even sleep in his arms, as reported by The Sun.
The product is in the shape and size of a male human body but has the head of a half-asleep teddy bear. The oversized plush bear is 5-foot, 7-inches and weighs about 7 pounds. The cost of this product is $160. It "replaces the need for the physical presence of a person in various moments and situations of everyday life, especially during long lonely nights," reports New York Post.
Explaining the reason behind making this product, the company wrote: "We women are often left alone for various reasons. Sometimes it's a personal choice, bad luck, or fate, but we all need someone's presence or a hug, especially at night before falling asleep or on the couch in front of the TV. That's why Puffy is made with a human shape and size to replace as much as possible the lack of physical presence when we need to hug or lean."
Talking about its benefits, they said, "he doesn't snore, he doesn't grumble or get angry." Puffy can also be dressed up as per your desire for a snuggle - or dressed down to his natural state.
The bear is the brainchild of the company's founders, model and designer, Ina Marholeva, and product and creative manager, Tonia Berdankova.
Puffy can be enjoyed by non-singles too. Even families can benefit from this personal snuggle bug. "Kids love cuddling him, even pets seek him out to snuggle up to him while you're at work and no one's home," the company shared. Also, Puffy is the perfect gift for anyone "going through lonely moments, emotional trials, and feelings of emptiness."
A customer Liya who reviewed the bear said that at first, she felt a "bit strange" until she got used to the presence of the bear "because he seems like a real person, but now I can't imagine walking in and him not being home." Buyer Karry said, "Since Puffy has been with me, I fall asleep much easier and faster. I love its softness and the sense of security it gives me."
