Knowing such a feature of people, a bed was born Totoro.

Who is Totoro?

Totoro - the hero of the cartoon "My Neighbor Totoro", created by the Japanese animator Hayao Miyazaki. In Russia, this cartoon was shown back in 1993. Totoro himself is the guardian spirit of the forest. This is a huge gray creature, kind and sympathetic, but if it makes him angry, it can release its claws. Totoro is not a national Japanese deity. He was completely imagined by a multiplier.

Based on the anime, this hero helps the girls who met him, cope with difficulties, protects them from adversity and helps to adapt to new conditions of life after moving to the village.

Special features

Totoro's bed is made in the form of the cartoon character of the same name. It is, in fact, a bag filled with filler. Very reminiscent of feather bed, placed in a bright case of interesting shape. It will be interesting to lie on such a bed for both children and adults. This is something in between a children's sofa, made in the form of a soft toy, and a bag chair. On such a pillow-bed there is enough space for both children and adults.

The Totoro pillow bed has several advantages:

Materials

Since the Totoro bed consists of a pillow and a cover, we will take a closer look at each component:

  • The cover is sewn from semi-synthetic fabric, resembling velor. It gives a very pleasant tactile sensations, does not electrify and does not require the use of an additional cover.
  • The pillow itself is made of fabric spunbond. It is a non-woven fabric consisting of a polymer melt. Under high temperatures, thin threads are formed, which are subsequently glued together to form a thin but durable material.

In addition, despite the fact that this fabric has a polymer composition, it does not emit toxic substances, which is very important, since the product is also intended for children.

  • The filler of the pillow is softfiber. This is a modern material that looks something like a synthetic winterizer, but does not undergo caking and retains heat more qualitatively. Its structure resembles small spirals, they generally create a structure in which air accumulates better. In addition, this material is not a breeding ground for pathogenic microorganisms, fungi, bacteria, and dust mites.

Colors

According to the cartoon, Totoro has a gray color, but the manufacturers of beds of the same name decided that it was too boring to produce a place to rest in the same mouse color. Now you can find covers completely different colors. Here and pink for girls, and blue for boys. And also you can buy a bed Totoro green, red, orange colors. In addition, the facial expression of the cartoon character can also be different. He may smile modestly, laugh, showing an even row of teeth, may not have a mouth at all.
