Nice appearance, lacks sturdiness in the long run
Color: Raven
Decent quality on the surface, but likely to eventually break down with aggressive tuggers or strong jawed dogs. Best for medium drive pups at best.

Excellent quality, larger than expected, machine washable
Color: Magnolia, Color: Magnolia
It's my fault for not realizing this toy is almost as long as my 7lbs papillon lol. He is not sure what to do with it right now but having a good time trying to figure it out. I thought he and his sister would love to play with it together, but it's much firmer than I expected. This is great news for larger dogs!
It is a great quality toy. It's ethically made with recycled materials by a company in Colorado and manufactured in Vietnam. It's machine washable. It's a good value and should last for a long time (even with larger dogs). It's not too heavy, but due to its size, it may not be the greatest choice for toy dogs or small puppies. Oh, and it's bright colors and pattern look awesome.
My little guy is an aggressive chewer for his size and is quite toy protective, so he has already claimed this as HIS as I'm writing this. He is having fun scratching the material it's made of, chewing it, rolling around with it, carrying it around, and keeping it away from his sister (also a papillon). So, we're happy over here.
