Stuffed animals are used by many people to reduce anxiety. In this study, we investigated the tactile stimuli of stuffed animals that tend to have a single tendency, and examined products that give users a sense of ease focusing on warmth and weight. Through trial production, we investigated the effect of warmth and weight on ease. Warmth was favored by many people. Weight tended to be polarized between those who prefer lightness and those who prefer weight. So we made final productions for each. Through this research, it became clear that warmth and weight gave users a sense of ease.
