Vermont Teddy Bear Factory

"My son loves stuffed toys and really enjoy going to the Teddy Bear Factory. The quality of the teddy bears is extraordinary and so much better than his other stuffed toys. It even comes with a lifetime warranty. Despite my encouragement to get a soft teddy bear, he insists on getting a sea turtle. Then the staff actually found one for him and completely made his day. Amazing. At the time of this review, you can sign up to their mailing list online to get 15% off."

"We were in Vermont in celebration of my daughter’s 5th birthday. As a tradition, we typically go to build a bear on her birthday no matter where we are but I noticed that there weren’t any in this state and stumbled upon this place! I’m so glad I did. The staff were nice and the bears themselves were reasonably priced and the interaction of building them was fun. The only downside is my daughter wished there were more selection of clothing for her bear. I had a 15% off coupon for signing up for emails so it wasn’t as expensive as it could’ve been. Any little bit helps. We purchased three 15” inch bears and 4 outfits. Be prepared to spend anywhere between 26-40 on the bear itself and $15 and up on outfits depending upon which one you choose. The tour was free for kids 12 and under which was great and $5 for adults. It was very informative and I love that as long as you keep the sewn tag on your bears bottom there you can send it back to the factory for any repairs or replacement FOR LIFE. So despite it being pricey in the long run it’s worth it for the free trips to the bear hospital. A must stop if you have kiddos that love fluffy friends"

"We had a great time! The tour of the factory was only $5 and it was so informative and fun! You can make your own bear as well as shop the new and classic teddy bears. The tour took about 30 minutes and we spent around 30 minutes shopping. It was a great stop on our way out of Burlington!"

"Overall experience was good. They also offer a military discount which doesn't seem common in the area, so Kudos to them. Lower rating is because most employees were friendly, but not very attentive and we stood waiting at the register to check out for a couple of minutes, while employees just looked at us."
