Cast Iron Dachshund Doorstop by GSM

Received broken in half. Might have liked it had it been whole.

Its functional and made well.

Have a door that constantly slams when I need to let the room cool with a cross wind and got tired of using the piano stool. This is quite a bit smaller than I expected and I was unsure if it would work, but actually works well. Its small enough that my 17 month old grandson could pick it up and carry it around, so might not be wonderful with very small kids as could hurt if they dropped it on a foot. Otherwise, I recommend this. Its adorable.

smaller than I expected - and they could have shaved the seams a little more prior to painting, but it is cute

So cute and heavy, looked just like my dog!

I usually go by the reviews if Im not sure about something and the Dachshund had alot of wonderful reviews so I did order it. I was very disappointed when I saw it. I tried to like it telling myself it was like a cartoon character but it had too many pits all around it which made one leg deformed looking. Im really surprised at all the great reviews, I must have gotten a lemon!

Heavy, dont walk into it or youll stub a toe.

Absolutely adorable! Good workmanship. Nice weight. Holds door open by putting the dachshund sideways against the door.

Its a lot smaller than I wanted, but for the price, it is about the right weight for its size. I just wanted bigger but that would have made it a bargain. It has an obvious seam right down the middle...as if you could cut the dog in equal halves right from head to tail down the back. The bottom seam is split and not welded solid, so craftmanship is...what craftmanship?! Outside of that it feels pretty solid for two halves put together. It is an economical decorative. If you compare the prices of some resins which dont even have much weight to be a doorstop, they are ridiculously overprice. This could be a doorstop or a lovely garden statuary and not blow away or be knocked over easily.

The doorstop was smaller than I expected for the price, but does the job of keeping our office door open.
