The Good: She is soooo Cute!! almost like the real doll, exept the hair isn't as real or plasticy as the full size dolls. Her shoes are realistic and her dress is so adorable!
The bad: not much, exept the hair can start flying everywhere!!
All in all...A+!!

A+ Great quality. I've had mine for years and it still appears to be brand new! The hair is very soft.

My Samantha Mini doll has hair that stays in place. It is very soft, but her bangs came flatter than others (I've seen them in the box a mess!) and I love it. I can see how the hair can get messed up, but mine seems thick and able to stay in one place. I love the dress and everything, she is my favorite mini doll. She is also in nicer shape than most of my other mini dolls.

I didn't really expect much when I got my mini-Samantha, but she's actually quite nice. Her hair can get a little wild, but a little bit of brushing fixes that right up. Overall, a cute little thing.  [   |

I think Samantha is one of the cutest mini dolls. Her dress and shoes fit nicely and look good on her. Her hair is think, and sometimes it gets a little fly away, but it usually goes back to normal when it is smoothed down. Overall, great mini doll!

I got my Mini Samantha today as a present for Elise.
I did not see it coming that the doll would have a soft cloth body like the 18 inch AG dolls. This is a very nice plus.
The hair is beautiful. Very soft and easy to style. The bangs were poofy originally- BUT they were also easier to sweep to the side than on the original Samantha doll.
The outfit has the same problems as the Meet Samantha outfit. Plus the tights are so bulky that they make Mini Samantha look like she has a thicker waist than what she does. So I just did the same thing I did with the 18 inch doll's tights- snipped them to make stockings. This makes Mini Sam's dress fit better over her bloomers and stockings.
I really like the doll's poseability.
The mini Meet Samantha book is cute and high quality. The print is very small- but I can still read it with my glasses (I'm farsighted, so this may not be an issue for you).
Overall an A. Would be an A+ if the tights were not so bulky or if she had stockings instead of tights. This is a similar issue with the 18 inch Samantha Parkington doll.
I feel as giddy as when I got Samantha 11 years ago. In my stories, Elise gets a Samantha doll as a present for being a junior bridesmaid at her friend Anjelika's wedding.

I love this mini doll! I've had mine since 2004, and she still looks brand new. I especially love her pretty dark curls that have managed to stay in better than full-size Samantha's. Grade: A+ I also own the PM, glass-eyed version. I didn't like her as much, but she has really grown on me. She has such a sweet and innocent look to her that I cannot help but smile when I see her. Grade: B+ These dolls really do make great dolls' dolls...  |

I love my little mini Samantha. The hair can get messy, but honestly it has less flyaways than my full-sized Samantha does. I agree that she's one of the cutest mini dolls... Mini Sam and Mini Nellie are as cute as they can be sitting together. My grade: A |

I've sold a lot of mini dolls on eBay and I do have to admit she is very cute. Sam was my DD's first mini doll. When we went to AGPC, DD picked Sam right away,removed her from her box,and never let her go. Her hair can be messy, but it is manageable and very soft.She is easy to carry around.

My mini Sam looks just like PrincessEmily's mini Sam closer to the right in her picture. She is sooo adorable. My best friend Kirsten (blonde hair blue eyes to boot) couldn't afford a full size American Girl, so she got mini Kirsten and we played for hours on end. What was really great was that Barbie things were just the right size - from hair things to food to dresses (the shorter mini dresses)! A++++

I'm very happy with Mini Sam A+
Her dress fits great around her waist, I have seen and read that the mini's clothes can look frumpy, but perhaps mine was a fluke-her sash is a bit snug- which makes her look less intentionally mini... IMO
