Some of the best money I’ve ever spent. My son was always a good sleeper but started coming into our bed regularly for comfort, since purchasing this koala he has been in his own bed every night! ❤️

I got the koala for my 2 year old daughter. I was pleasantly surprised because she got attached to it straight away. The koala quickly became her sleeping buddy. She is happy to go to bed with koala and loves giving her cuddles. The weight seems to be just enough. Clever toy.
Thank you.

Good bear. Daughter loves it

This koala is great. My 2 year old son would wake up at night and cry if I wasn't next to him. He always wanted to be holding on to me in his sleep. Now when he falls asleep I put his koala next to him and he feels it there and falls back to sleep instead of crying for me. It didn't work with normal stuffed toys but the weight must make him feel like I'm there.

My 2 year old loves her koala. From day one when we gave it to her, she was instantly obsessed with it, something we haven't ever seen with a toy before. She happily carries it around the house with her. She loves how soft the ears are and often plays with them for quiet time. I don't think it's helping with overnight sleeps as she still wakes up, but it definitely does provide some level of comfort, so I'm happy with the purchase.

Way heavier than I thought !
I’m almost 20 and this little guy has been a lifesaver at the best of times
Not only for anxiety but it’s also been great for muscle pains and a simple relaxer
100% recommend

This Koala is not just for the young.
Older people with dementia and Alzheimer’s can benefit hugely with the security, calming effect and help them get to sleep.
Thank you to the Lady at Neptuneblanket for arranging a note from my son to his Nanna while we couldn’t see her. They took a little time to make this special lady filled loved when her koala arrived. She calls him Bear!

My 2 and 1/2 year old had gone from sleeping through the nights to waking up regularly. After exhausting all options, I thought I would try him with a weighted animal. My hubby was skeptical but it seemed that my son was only waking up so that someone would come to him during the night. It's been nearly a month and my son is sleeping through the night!!! It is absolutely amazing!!! Even hubby is raving about this weighted toy. We have now started to get him to try going to sleep by himself which is a challenge as he loves to comb his fingers through my hair to fall asleep. Touch wood as it has only been a fortnight but he has his Mr Emu next to him after I tuck him in and I have seen him gently combing his fingers through Mr Emu's hair. I have raved about these weighted toys to everyone I know. I will definitely be getting another one when my next bub arrives.

“ChipChip” is our family’s new little addition! We all love a cuddle from him and he helps our little one slew better! Thank you ❤️

Coolah the Koala (Storm Boy)
My husband & I were having problems with our 5 years son, not wanting to go to bed, we would have the melt downs, the yelling I don’t want bed, when he finally got into bed he would muck around so he didn’t go to sleep, eventually when he did go to sleep (usually hour or more after his bed time), he would wake up at 2am and want to play, then we would have another meltdown because it wasn’t play time, it was sleep time. My son was having 4-5 hours a sleep a night max which was not enough.
We have tried a lot of products that were supposed to work but unfortunately didn’t. We spoke to our doctor who advised different ways that we could try prior to bed time but no that didn’t work either.
I came across a Kidspot review on Facebook about weighted Coolah (aka Gus) the Koala, I read the story as I had herd a lot about weight products, I was sceptical honestly could a Koala really work???
I mentioned it to my husband and he said what have we got to lose, we had spent a lot more money on other products that didn’t work, I purchased Coolah the Koala late one night, the next day it was shipped (fantastic communication with my order). When it arrived, my son opened his parcel and straight away fall in love with the Koala and said mummy I am going to call him Storm Boy, the first night with Storm Boy he was happy to go to bed and cuddle his new friend, slept the whole night though which was a big change.
We have had Storm Boy for a month and my son loves him we don’t have the bed routine issues, sleeps the whole night and when I asked my son why he loved his Koala so much he said mummy I feel secure when I am asleep as it feels like I have daddy lying with me the whole night. I have purchased another Koala for my son’s best friend for Christmas.
Thank You so much Neptune Weighted Blankets for a product that really truly works.

Gorgeous Koala and feels so soft, my child loves snuggling with her Koalee

I purchased this teddy for my son 5.5 year old son who suffers from sensory processing disorder to help calm him during his sensory episodes. It has been a great comforter for him which is amazing! During an episode, he is able to calm down a lot quicker when he has his 'blinky' on hand and he takes it everywhere.
Kayla S.
My 3yr old is quiet happy to be without mum when he goes to daycare now because he takes emu with him instead. He sleeps with emu every night and brings him out during the day to watch movies. He even takes emu out the bush to ride motor bikes. He has never been attached to anything like he is emu it really has helped.
Jess L.
Excellent, has helped my son sleep long and stay in his own bed.
Naomi H.
Works well with calming

My little boy loves his 'ted bear'. Miles is 1.5 years old and struggles with separation anxiety at time. Not all the time! He ignored the koala at first. But I kept picking the toy up and cuddling it going 'shh shh shh' and rocking him when it was time for bed. Then i would pass him to my son and he would then pat him and touch his ears. Few months on and he hugs him close every night :)
Louise S.
My son loves it as much as our real koala banjo
Nicole M.
My son loves him!
Amy s.
It is super soft and cute. My son loves it. Unfortunately, it hasn’t helped his sleep.

Loved the koala I bought so much I bought another 8 of them

Sleep has improved and our daughter has a new best friend

Kids love them.

Would be perfect for those with dementia, they often love to cuddle stuffed toys and dolls. Would be very soothing and comforting for them. Have you thought about making them for this market?
Rose W.
I've been doing Melbourne lockdown alone and without any pets. I already had a teddy bear but decided to order a weighted koala on a whim as an added treat when I ordered a weighted blanket. I'm so glad I did! So comforting, emulates the weight of having a cat sitting on me or next to me. Super soft. I only wish the arms and legs were slightly longer to better allow a hug-like hold.
Maya M.
Nice Koala, my son loves to cuddle it, very soft. Hasn’t helped his sleeping however.
Liz P.
I love my "Coolah" Koala weighted teddy!!! He is so soft to cuddle and touch! I had to take my Neptune weighted blanket off as it was warming up a bit, and I've always slept with a teddy-bear to cuddle at night, as it helps me to sleep. When I saw the weighted toys, I was so excited to purchase one and I'm so glad I did! Not just for the kiddies to enjoy, I'd recommend to anyone who needs a little help to nod off!
Samantha G.
So far it’s working amazing. My daughter is sleeping alone without any issues.
Alexis E.
My 5 year old son loves his new fuzzy Koala friend. I was surprised, but it does seem to calm him down quickly. He is typically difficult to calm particularly before bed and his new pal seems to do the job! Amazing! I am considering one of the weighted blankets for him now. Thank you!
Lee W.
My 14 year old loves it. Great to sit on her lap when she's studying at home.
Nicole D.
Perry is happy here or anywhere really. He enjoys sitting on laps to provide a little deep pressure and comfort
Danielle .
Absolutely love these koalas, after 5 years of sleep troubles my daughter finally sleeps in her own room now!!! She loves her cuddly koala who protects her at night and cuddles her when she is sad. Was so impressed that I bought a 2nd one for my 1yo son who loves his cuddly koala too.
ave s.
My 6 year old was getting sad because he had no one to sleep with but he didn't want to sleep with any of his stuffed toys so we thought we would buy him a weighted toy as he has a weighted blanket. He LOVES his koala and has named him Eddie. He sleeps with him every night and brings him out in the morning to watch tv with him. I am thinking about buying one for my 4 year old who also has a weighted blanket but he has a toy that he sleeps with but gets out of bed in the middle of the night so we are hoping it might help him.
Alischa R.
My son loves ‘Harry’ the koala he sleeps with him every night and I have to look after Harry when my son isn’t home.

3year old grandson who had become concerned about noises and the dark has found Kevin to be a reassurance for him.
Kim S.
My kids use them sometimes and not others. Doesn’t help settle them for sleep, they do sleep through the night though
Kim S.
Thought it might help my kids as they are restless at night, they use them sometimes but not others

My son loves it and has it with him everynight to cuddle
Joanne R.
My kid loves it! Super adorable Koala, just the right size and softness for my 4yo. She hugs it every night in bed and is her favorite teddy to date!❤☺

Ted loves his weighted Koala. He used to take hours to get to sleep and get up several times a night usually ending up sleeping in bed with us. Now he sleeps straight away and through until morning
teamor m.
My son absolutely adores his koala. He will not be happy in bed unless his koala is tucked under his arm. It was the best decision to purchase him and I will definitely be telling all my mummy friends about Neptune blanket and how highly I praise and recommend them
Monique J.
My son loves his platypus and doesn’t sleep without it!
Amy F.
My daughter absolutely loves her emu. She takes it everywhere with her and it really helps her self regulate and stay settled for longer periods.

My 3 year old sleeps noticeably better with her playpus snuggled up to her, very worthwhile purchase
Joanne S.
My son just loves his koala. Great purchase. He has been sleeping through the night and have had no more sleep issues since our purchase of coolabah the koala. Great purchase very happy with this product.
Ryan H.
My son loves Ernie the Emu he sleeps with him all the time and carries him around the house. Our son is very tactile so the fur on Ernie is is a great feature for him.
Teresa M.
Seems really cute and cuddly ... early christmas shopping for grandson.
lisa a.
he loves it and is sleeping better
Nichola T.
So far my daughter is responding well to the koala, we’ve had 4 nights in a row of her sleeping in her own bed!
Caitlin B.
I was such a skeptic, but with a three year old who sleeps through only very rarely, i decided to take the plunge. I know it’s a cliche but I’m sure I’ve tried it all, and have paid handsomely over the years for things that didn’t work.
This paid off massively. This kid now sleeps to 6:30am. As a wonderful bonus, the same child is a hair twirler, and she is so thoroughly calmed by the long hair/fur on the emu.
I can’t rave about this toy enough, it has been a solid investment in my own sanity and worth every cent.
Hope D.
I purchased 3 Koalas for my three boys and one had a lose leg where the stitching came undone, they quickly sent out a replacement and we got Perry the Platypus instead which we were very happy about - the twins love their Koala, one of my twins definitely sleeps better, unfortunately for the other 2, they still sleep terribly but love to snuggle them
Fiona .
Granddaughter loves her Coola... Sleeping is improving because of Coola cuddles
Nicki C.
My son has never liked teddies or other soft toys, but the weight of the koala is exactly what he needed!
Rebecca S.
I bought this for my 2.5 yr old to see if it helps with his night sleep! He still wakes up, but loves his koala & cuddles it in the night! He brings it out with him in the mornings & loves to give it cuddles!
Kelly B.
My daughter loves cuddling up with her koala, I think because it’s a bit weighted it stays put and so feels secure. Loving it
tiah s.
My 4 year old would not sleep in his own bed as he was always having scary dreams. I bought the koala for him and he had an instant bond with it and he has now been sleeping back in his own bed since buying it. Highly recommend.
Kirsty G.
Love our weighted Koala.. our 4 year is a big fan
Mary C.
Miss 2 doesn’t like Koala before she goes to sleep but when she is asleep I do place it next to her and she stirs and reaches out and cuddles it and goes straight back to sleep as she sleeps right thru the night now. I recommend trying.
Vini A.
My son adores Coolah so much. He sleeps better with him and always ask for a cuddle with Coolah whenever he feels upset. Thank you Neptune!
Narei E.
the koala is so snuggley , my daughter loves it
Narei E.
My daughter loves to snuggle with her emu

Our little boy loves his Koala! We used to have to lay with him for sleeps but now he goes by himself. We still have night wakes but less frequent. The team at Neptune were super helpful when my delivery went missing. Can’t recommend Neptune enough.
Catherine L.
My daughter (3.5 years) was waking up every night at least once, sometimes 3 times and would come into our room bawling. This was both heartbreaking, was hard on all of us with broken sleep, and made worse because her baby brother is still room sharing with us so her crying was waking him up multiple times a night too. I came across the weighted toys again at that time and ordered one figuring at the very least it was another nice toy. But oh my god, this toy has been a godsend. In the month since we've bought it she has woken up once, and that was because she chose to go to sleep with the koala beside the bed rather than in with her. She's also going to sleep faster with her koala to cuddle.
She loves her Koala and she joins us at breakfast and is often with us throughout the day. She loves holding her and she is so much happier getting into bed with her cuddly koala friend. It's a beautifully made toy too. Lovely and soft and is a good weight. I would highly recommend this toy if your kid suffers from anxiety, is waking up multiple times and/or struggles to go to sleep. At the very least it's a lovely toy to have, at best it will give you and your little one better sleeps! Thanks Neptune Blankets.
Glenda N.
I didn't know it couldn't be used for children under 2, I got it for a 1st birthday so have put it away till the 2nd birthday. I didn't see that information on the website so i think it should be added.
Svetlana M.
My 7 year old loves this koala and it has helped with her sleep issues.
Caterina M.
We believe this has made a difference to our baby daughter's sleeping, especially at night. She is a lot calmer, when we put her in her cot, even if she is still awake she will roll over, cuddle her koala, which we have called Moshi (a sleeping app with songs and stories to settle bubs) and she falls asleep.
Definitely money well spent
Jessica T.
The koala is soft and cuddly just as it was described. I love it so much that I want it for me.
Steph E.
Great new buddy for my boy! In the short time we have had this weighted teddy he has been sleeping so much better.

My son has become hugely attached to his weighted Koala ‘Womble’. He has ADHD & Autism (A2) so gets great comforted from weighted items. The materials used are great quality and he just adores him!

Purchased for ASD Grandson and its great here at home and at school

My 4 year old boy loves his Coolah. He burrows his face into the soft ears and carries him around everywhere. Coolah has also improved his sleep, making him feel calm and safe. We are a huge fan
