This thing is fun. It has settings for loud and regular volume. It also has a high pitch setting and a lower pitch setting. It can be used more quiet but if you squeeze the mouth it gets louder.
My only issue is not with the product but myself and that is when I forget to put the actual setting to off. If you don't remember to actually turn it off like any normal electronics device then the battery will drain super fast. I usually use rechargeable batteries for this reason.
It is sturdy and the face is nade of like a silicon so you can squeeze it.
