JAnimals are stuffed animals that unroll and transform into wearable pajamas.
Pros
- Multi-functional
- Variety
- Range Of Sizing
- Unique
The JAnimal is a stuffed animal when you want, and wearable pajamas other times. This provides two functions in one product. Also, it makes the pajamas very transportable.
JAnimals are available in 5 styles: cat, dog, zebra, giraffe, and unicorn, so you can get exactly the animal that you want.
Janimals are available in three sizes: small ( 3'0"-3'6" ), medium (3'6"-5'0"), and large (5'0"-5'5").
There isn't anything else quite like JAnimals, so this provides you with a special opportunity.
Infomercial
The infomercial looks to grab consumers of all ages by frequently depicting an entire family wearing JAnimals. Along those lines, it is targeted even more at teenagers than small children who might be assumed to enjoy the product more. Overall, JAnimals doesn't seem to take itself too seriously, instead hoping to capitalize on the same market that Snuggies have succeeded so well in. JAnimals asserts that the wearable stuffed animal is appropriate both for night and day, in fact, all the time and showcases actors wearing it during a number of regular activities.
How it's Different from Competitors
Although many novelty footsie pajamas and products along the lines of the Snuggie are out there, JAnimals is the only product that transforms from a stuffed animal into pajamas. This could potentially make a fantastic white elephant / gag gift or conversation piece. Silly pajamas and things along those lines have become increasingly more prevalent in pop culture, paving the way for JAnimals.
Features
- Quick Transformation
The commercial features brief demonstrations on the mechanism that holds the pajamas inside the stuffed animal. It appear to be a velcro attachment on a flap at the base of the plush head that holds in the bulk of the pajama. This creates a whimsical-looking spherical-shaped animal when the pajamas are folded. It also means that the transformation is easy to accomplish.
Easy to Use
- Folding And Unfolding
Since the whole assembly is a quick-attach system similar to velcro, folding the whole of the pajama into the stuffed animal is quick and easy. When you want to transform it back into pajamas, it's as easy as undoing the flap, and it folds out.
Save Money
JAnimals are comparable in price to other one-piece pajamas, but JAnimals also functions as a stuffed animal. If you were planning on buying both a one-piece pajama as well as a stuffed animal, this could easily be a cost saving endeavor.
Concerns
- Limited Use
Despite the commercial suggesting the JAnimals can be worn anywhere, the practicality of wearing it outside of the house, particularly for the adult market, is limited.
Cons
- Limited Selection
- Limited Sizing
For consumers interested in animals outside of the range of the five options provided, there is no solution. People who are interested in owning a monkey themed JAnimals will not be able to purchase one.
The largest JAnimals only fits consumers up to five and a half feet tall ( 66" ) which means that there is no size large enough to fit the average American man. Since average male height in the United States is 5'10" (or 70") the average family could not all dress in JAnimals like the commercial idicates.
