Nixies Swimming Mermaid

My 6 year old loved these for Christmas, big hit. Work well in the bath. Unfortunately, I didn't give a higher rating due to the fluff and hair that gets wrapped round the tail fan and stops them from swimming. I'm always trying to untangle fluff bits to get them working properly. If you can keep them for use only in a clean tank then they would be 5 stars, but that's not easy for a 6 year old with a 4 year old brother who what's to join in!

We bought this as part of my daughter's Christmas present. Upon opening the packet we noticed that the battery compartment didn't sit flush to the back of the doll. When we unscrewed the compartment to put a battery in (it doesn't come with a battery at all) it was apparent that the battery cover was broken (cracked across). I have returned the faulty item and ordered another one, hopefully we'll have more luck second time around. Otherwise it looked good, smaller than I imagined though.

Not tried the mermaid out, yet. Am sure my 7 year old will love playing with these; bath time will be fun. Just one thing, in my shopping frenzy I didn't realise I had ordered just one. The heading is misleading and I would suggest it is changed to reflect the single purchase, not all three.

Rip off for only 1 item was expecting all 3 for 19.99

Like others, wish I'd read the previous reviews properly to realise it's just a single doll and not all three as shown. The doll we did get works fine though and daughter enjoying playing with it in the bath.

Really nice bath toy however scared my four year old completely she jumped out of the bath! Very fast moving she felt it was chasing i think. Wont get in the bath now if its there.

Only 4 star as the battery compartment is really fiddly. Other than that, this is a fab little toy for the bath. The tail angle can be moved to change the direction that the mermaid swims, which is really quite fast and impressive. Much better than the other swimming mermaids advertised on tv. Would definitely recommend for a tenner

MY daughter loves this :) so glad I read reviews it's great. Runs out of battery very quickly! And my daughters stray hair gets clogged up in the fan whilst it's swimming round the bath I have to keep clearing it with tweezers. But I can't complain for the price it's great.
