Bought this for my daughters first birthday. Was a little skeptical because of the cost. Especially when things like empty water bottles used to be all we needed to keep her attention. This has, by far, turned into her favorite toy. She’s 14.5 months old now, and is obsessed with Codi. It doesn’t get turned off while she is awake. Today I brought her down from her nap, and for the first time in her life she did not reach for mommy...she reached for Codi who was sitting right next to mom. That’s when I decided it was time to write a review.

Codi is a well done product
Aside from the defective codi i received.
Once the replacement was received my son who is 7 loves it
The song list and stories are a good fit for him
Still learning the product but my kid and i are really happy with it
Thank you. Good size for my son the toy feels good and good material(quality)

I bought this as a gift for a child and the parents tell me that she likes it but haven’t given me that much feedback.

I wish it was easier to fix an error in age on the current profile without having to reset everything.

My kiddo loves Codi, it is used everyday. He loves the songs and stories. We use the calm setting for bedtime. It helps him fall asleep.

The cutest little roboy

Its so cute to see my son walk around with him all day like its his new best friend. He loves when Codi plays music and all the songs they have for you to add to your playlist are the ones, he typically listens to which helped him gravitate towards Codi even more. When Codi asks my son did you like that, he's starting to try to answer back, my son is 16 months old. Codi is very engaging for his curious mind and he's encouraging my son to talk even more. I would say that this is a good buy if for your kids, even more so if your kid is behind when it comes to learning to talk. Great purchase; money well spent.

I bought this for my great-nephew. Though there was a slow start at Christmas to use it, now that the hub-bub of all of the gifts received he has settled into a nice routine including Codi. He loves to listen to the stories and to have him read or sing to both him and his new little brother (2 mo. old) I cannot wait to visit in February so he can show me Codi and tell me all about him.
Madeleine D.
Granddaughter loves it!

We bought this for christmas for our 5 year old who wanted a robot. Not really what he wanted but his 8 month old brother loves it so much. Best for younger pre readers.
Karen I.
My son loves his Codi.
He listens to stories every night before bed. He Loves dancing to all the interactive songs, and sending me voice messages when I’m not home. I love it cause I can still say good night and give him kisses through Codi
Thikamphaa B.
Great to play music and stories even for a 4 month old
Susan L.
My Grandsons love Codi, I would recommend to others. A great Christmas gift.
Laura M.
We have Five Grandchildren from the ages 10-2.They Love Cody.They fight over him.They have to take turns listening to him.The only complaint from my son Inlaw is they can crank the volume....
Jayme D.
My 4 year old son with autism spectrum disorder loves his Codi so much he just won’t let him go! He brings him everywhere including to bed

HOWARD A S.
Bought them for my grandchildren.

Laurie C.
We bought this for our two year old last easter. He still plays with it today, best investment ever. He sings to the songs and loves story time. He loves his Codi.
Cindy G.
It is a gift for Christmas for my Grandson. Can’t wait to give it to him.

My daughter absolutely loves Codi! He has all the songs she already knows and loves. He also the calming playlist helps her get to sleep at night.
Rena D.
My 6 year old boy loves it! Doesn’t go to bed without it.
Amy E.
The Codi is for my three year old granddaughter. She absolutely loves it. She carries it from room to room like a friend. I would recommend for any child from 2yo to about 6 or even 7yo.
Dennis L.
Love it. Saving it for my 9 yr old grandson`s birthday in October. He has Downs Syndrome and it would be perfect for him.
Stephanie D.
Codi knows a lot of songs and stories that are useful to child development. Codi has very limited voice interaction capabilities. I look forward to seeing this developed further.
Jeremiah C.
Overall this is an amazing product that was immediately loved by our children! The stories are colorful and the songs are great!
However, the choice to have the power/volume control consist of a knob when it could have been a button to press is uninspired. This is an oversight on the designer’s part. By having the knob versus a button you’ve painted yourself into a bit of a corner: the unit is either constantly in an on state or off state. You cannot add a sleep feature in future iterations. This also makes the parent app frustrating. I can turn on the rest time feature from the parent app, but Codi is still on after two hours. This means I am either risking waking up my child to power the unit down or leaving it on all night which means the battery will run out before sunup and it will need recharged. Or my child will roll onto the unit and inadvertently prompt Codi to begin story mode or music mode which could wake them as well.
I trust that since this is a relatively new product this is an issue that will be resolved in future versions of Codi, but it seems like it could have been resolved with parent/child play testing.
Another issue is the limited amount of stories and songs. I hope that this will expand with time because my son loves Tom Sawyer, but there is only part one available so he is curious to know more.
Thank you for bringing such an amazing product to market and I hope you have great success going forward!
Marie S.
We just at the learning and discovering stage but still, we love the music .....very much.
Very amusing
Laura D.
I bought it for my small grandson who has Autism and I thought it would engage him more , he loves gadgets!!
andrea g.
Our family loves CODI! I bought him for our grandson to cut back on screen time at some other educational websites. He loves to carry him around and sing or take him out to play and listen to a story! We encourage everyone to give him a try. THANK YOU
lisa r.
We like it alot when we can get it on. I am not sure how to set up all the stuff however.
Victoria C.
It's ok offline. I have no internet and it won't connect to my cellular hotspot so I pretty much can't do anything to use it to it's full advantage for my daughter.
Cassandra R.
My child loves it and my nephew liked it so much his mom bought him one too.
Cynthia E.
We Love CodiMy Son RJ, 6yrs old, is fascinated by this Beautiful Little Robot He Loves the stories, music & voice interactionCodi is definitely his new best friendThank You Pillar Learning
Pei Y.
Bought it for my 6 year old and 21 month old to share. They both fight over it constantly. They love the outfits, Codi has to change into a different one each day. The little one loves the songs and the older one loves the stories. He’s very durable, and a full charge will last a long time.
Some things that would improve it for me:
- my little one likes to play with the buttons, which pauses the music and makes her push the buttons more to get the music back. If you put the parental lock on, Codi still talks if a button is pushed so it doesn’t really solve the problem. It would be nice if the buttons just inactivated when the lock is on and he doesn’t talk at all.
- volume knob is very sensitive. Thank goodness for the max volume lock, but I feel like it should still be harder to turn than that. Right now it turns if Codi gets dragged along the bed.
- I don’t think this one matters as much because you can just load the content you want onto Codi but it would be nice if you could add more than one child profile to one Codi. He doesn’t use the child’s name or anything so again, it’s probably not a big deal.
Overall, my kids love Codi. I can’t justify buying another one to stop the fighting though. Can’t wait for more stories and songs to get added!
Felicia G.
We bought codi originally for our 18 month old son who loves to dance and listen to music and he loves it. What we didn’t expect is for our 7 year old to love him just as much especially the stories. The only reason I gave 4 stars is because I wish you could connect with Bluetooth and not have to have codi connected to wifi but we still love codi all the same!
Suzette M.
Codi is great for the interaction experience. The only recommendation is for some reason the volume is loud at min. For autistic and sound sensitive kids it may be an issue.
Juliana D.
We love Codi, but would love to see more interactions eventually added.!!
Connie W.
The wifi was a bit of a challenge, it took several attempts to get it to connect. Also, it will randomly say it's not connected but then connect itself again. On the lighter side, my 2 year old loves to dance to the songs I choose for her .
Suzanne L.
I wish the clothes were made so you could connect the charger and headphones without taking them off. Those clothes are hard to take off and on. That is my only complaint
Suzanne L.
I got these for my granddaughters ages 8,6 and 2. They love them. I wasn’t sure now my older 2 would like them since they don’t have “screen “ on them but they love it. We bought headphones for them so they could listen to there own codi’s. They haven’t even connected to the app yet. I’m so excited for them
Edward H.
Purchased for our two year old granddaughter ( who resides in another state) she seems to enjoy the songs and her parents say she is still learning all about him!
Destiny M.
I absolutely am in love with this product! I originally had purchased this for my son who is 2 but when I found out it had a calming playlist I tried to use it for my daughter who is 8 months old. She loves to sleep to lullabies so this was perfect. I couldn’t be happier with codi and the unicorn outfit was perfect and soft. So now we have two codi’s one with the dinosaur outfit and the other with a unicorn outfit. I would buy this product a hundred times over!
Kelly A.
My son was Tickled pink when I left him a message and he found out he could leave me messages back
LaDonna M.
She absolutely loves it! It's so cute hearing her cheer after her songs are complete.
Michelle T.
Let me start by saying I love the concept of Codi. My son loves the music and I think when he is older he will enjoy the stories as well. However, Codi is much more limited than I expected being advertised as AI.
He does not learn and say your child's name. He only understands a very limited number of phrases that need to be spoken clearly - which is difficult to impossible for many young children. I feel like the parent app should be able to turn Codi on as well as off - I would love to be able to turn him on from the app and then have him tell my child that it is time for something...snack, nap, brush teeth, bath time etc... I also would like when you turned codi on for him to say hi and wait or ask what you would like him to do rather then just pick off where he left off and start playing songs or stories. He is either on and constantly playing or he turns completely off and cannot be turned back on with out picking him up, turning his nob off then back on. He also gets repetitive with his daily fun fact...it is constantly repeated every-time he connects to the internet, it would be nice if the fact changed each time he wanted to say one.
Trracy B.
My grandson loves Codi he carries it with him all the time and brings it to share at his daycare .
Laurie C.
Gary is 2.5 years old and loves Codi. He likes to change his clothes, carry him everywhere he goes. He sings, laughs, listens to stories. He likes to listen to messages sent to him. It is wonderful because you can add songs and stories and they play wherever you are. People are in awe when they see Codi and stop us to ask about him. The best Easter bunny gift.
Christine S.
My kids love their Codi's! They are constantly listening to music and stories and it keeps their eyes off a TV or tablet!
Josephine C.
My 4 years old son love Codi a lot, especially the brush teeth time (song). If the Interactions can add more functions, it will be great. Such as Breakfast time, dress up time, bath time, etc function. I bought Codi for 2 weeks only and Codi is not working well, he has no sounds with pressing any buttons and the apps also. Only the light is on and working. The customer service is excellent, they were giving me a super fast response and send me a return label for doing the Codi replacement. Wish the 2nd Codi can last longer and forever =)

My Granddaughter is 5 years old, and loves Codi
Ana D.
My daughter loves it!! She got this gift for Easter and its amazing
Teresa H.
I think it's a nice toy for younger kids so far my six year old doesn't enjoy it. I think it's geared more toward preschoolers. It's cute and the outfits are nice, but just not for my kindergartener. Not sure if I'm going to keep on trying to encourage him to play with it or sell it.
Gabriela
We got our Codi at Christmas, and our daughter LOVES playing with it. She especially likes to dance and sing along with the songs. The Calming Playlist has been great for keeping her bedtime routine, and the Clean-up and Teeth-brushing songs have been super helpful too! Great toy!
Kevin
Bought Codi for my nephew (age 3), and he absolutely loves it! The dino costume is super cute as well, and the costume helps Codi withstand rough play sessions. His parents love the fact there aren't any commercials detracting from the story and song experience.
The only downside is my nephew isn't very good at sharing yet... I'll have to get another for his younger brother.
Greg
I bought a Codi for my two nieces. One is 7 and the other is 3. The older one likes to listen to stories and learn while the 3-year-old loves to sing songs and dance and dance with Codi. I'm glad Codi ended up working so well with a variety of ages. def worth getting for the family.

My 2 year old son and 6 months baby absolutely love Codi! They play with Codi more than other toys that they have! My little baby loves the rubber ears to teeth on and turning the buttons on the stomach of Codi. It sings and reads them stories! The song wheels on the bus is the big brother's favorite, he always plays it in a loop. Great for children who are learning eye and hand coordination as well for singing and playing. I hope that the coat can have more options.
Angela
According to the stats, my kids are definitely a fan of the stories!
Sabrina
The look I get when I said it's time to put Codi up to charge
Brandon
Finally here and all set up! My little guy is going to live it!
Jen
Our son won't let go of him. Codi is his new best friend <3
Tammy
My granddaughter loves her Codi and absolutely loves the stories and songs. She takes him everywhere and Its amazing how she will listen to him as he has a calming voice and keeps her intrigued.
She loves the brushing teeth song and looks forward to brushing her teeth now.
It would be awesome if math and sciences can be added to Codi.
Codi is so much better than handing her the tablet or our phones to keep her preocuppied at moments.
Eileen H.
Brilliant!
Codi is amazing! We are saving him for our Daughter's 4th Birthday Present, which is in one week! Her dad and I had to test him out though and it is wonderful! The outfits are so soft and adorable, they really add to his personality!
Monica Z.
My kids love it.

Amazing!! My nephew loves him!!

My 2 yr old carries Codi everywhere!
My two-year-old carries Codi everywhere and loves him! He loves the songs at his age the best as he is not able to talk or really interact with it yet. I am excited to see him interact with it more as he grows! The positive songs that contiously play I know have an impact. I am very excited this was developed! My 9 yr old wants one lol! Thank you pillar learning for your amazing customer service and device you have developed!!!!
Harry S.
Grandson loves it
Jen H.
I would have given it 5 stars because....
My son absolutely loves him. The parent app needs a lot of upgrading and fixing. I know that this is a new product so it's not going to be perfect. All in all I think Codi is an amazing little robot that teaches kids so many great things without a screen. I love everything about what he is capable of and the fact that he will be getting better and better with time is the best! Pillar learning has the best customer service. They emailed me with a response to my questions pretty fast and I also talked to someone on the phone. It's so great to hear how passionate they are about codi.
Tessa D.
It’s fun but not for long
This robot doesn’t do as much as we though it would. It plays music and reads books. If you want it to do anymore than that, it won’t. To me it wasn’t worth $80, I bought it for Christmas for my 4 year old son and he hasn’t touched it since. It gets boring quickly and has very few functions.
Vinod S.
My 9 year old daughter loves it.
My 9 year old daughter asked Santa to get 'Cody' (the Robot which costs around $10,000) for her. But Santa got 'Codi' for her. She loves it.

Review
The product is well made and appears to be durable. Looking forward to incorporating it into my 2 grandson's daily activities.
Kelly B.
We received our Codi today!!
We received our Codi today! It is soo cute! We also ordered the extra Dino outfit. We originally saw the ad on Facebook and immediately knew we needed it for our 6 year old son. Fast shipping, (we ordered on the 12/15 and the item arrived 12/20). This toy is amazing! We downloaded the free parent app and have been able to load Codi with tons of free stories and fun songs. My favorite part is that I can send verbal messages to Codi through the app that our son can hear while I am at work. This is by far our favorite toy!
Calibbwinkdoll
This little cute robot Codi will become your family's new best friend
My 5 year old daughter was so amazed with the story telling, singing, and personal message features of Codi. She also loved the lights, she started saying the colors out loud. I also was amazed with the messaging and the singing and the app to control Codi is very easy to use. I would highly recommend this little cutie, especially if u are spending time away from your child Codi can keep the family connected by sending your child a personal message and allowing them to send a message back. It can also remind your child to brush teeth, clean up, and go to bed just to name a few things. Thumbs up for Codi the family's new best friend.
Naomi
Codi is cute and helpful
When I first saw Codi with my son he was very interested in it since he loves robots. He saw that there was a lot of songs that he can sing along with also a lot of books that he can listen to when he wanted to lay down and relax. The tooth brush song was what he liked the most. After reviewing the product he started to say he wanted to sing the brushing song while brushing his teeth. The feature that we both thought was good about Codi was the messaging system we loved it since we can communicate via Codi and app to leave thoughtful messages to each other. Now a days there isnt many children like products that have too much filter on how your child hears songs or reads books.
This product is great for children to interact with their parents through messaging also is great so when you're on the run your child can have reading read to them or how sing-alongs with a toy that they can play with.
I give this toy five stars my son is 5 years old liked it even though he didn't want to act like it but he did I would definitely get this toy for Christmas for not only my son but my God kids nieces and nephews.
Walter
Codi the robot is great!
The first time me and my family saw Codi we thought "how cute" as we seen the many functions we knew he would be perfect for our little daughter, my 3 year old daughter was in awe with Codi, she examined and grabbed his soft ears while listening to a few of his stories.
She laughed and played with Codi while Codi played music for her. I found that being able to control Codi from the comfort of my own phone was an awesome feature and with the 200 plus songs that you can play made me feel that my daughter would never get tired of the playlist. Once she spent over an hour with Codi my 10 month old son joined in and they played together and watched as the "cute" story telling Codi not only grasped their attention with his stylish looks but taught them a lesson with strories as well.
My daughter loves Codi so much she asks for him like she used to ask to play the TV or use our phone. Me and my family are definitely looking forward to hearing more stories and songs from Codi.
