The cow is great! Of course it smells when it is freshly unpacked. The flies but after a day. Inflated it can be better anyway give. The love is expressed then great no matter what. The material is very good and makes far all ideas of its user with. It is stable and does not wobble. The head provides good opportunities for retaining and attracting the cow nor headlong to the ground when no one is sitting on it. I find it highly recommended!
