After reading many mixed reviews of this dish I’m glad I finally just went ahead and ordered it. It is such a nice design – handsome and clean lines with great colors, it makes my whole kitchen look and feel a little bit ‘cutting edge’ or ‘modern’ (I’m not kidding, even my husband thinks this set is “cool”) and the spoons are my baby’s favorite (he’s 7 months old). My 2 and 3 year old toddlers like to use the spoons too!
I am writing to clear up a few misconceptions that other reviewers had mentioned; here’s what I found: first of all, my set came with two spoons in different colors and one bowl. The bowl and the rim are separate pieces that snap together too firmly for baby to take apart, but might come apart if the bowl hits the floor like ours did (but it did not break and I can’t imagine that it ever will). The rim is sort of rubbery and skid-resistant, the plastic bowl hangs suspended from the rim and the ‘splayed’ design of the rim allows for a lot of baby’s reaching in and pushing food around and out without it tipping. This is not the case with ‘normal’/traditional bowl-shaped baby dishes which tilt, rock, roll and then go spinning off the highchair tray. It’s not tip-proof, it does not suction to the tray and your baby will eventually figure out how to pick it up. But, even after my little guy figured all that out, he still seems more interested in chasing his food around and then victoriously jamming it into his mouth with the sloping sides of the dish really helping him to get the job done. (He’s still using his fingers at this point, the spoon is for me to help him right now).
You can wash this in a dishwasher (yay!) you can use it in a microwave too (yay!) but take care never to ‘boil’ the food, just zap very briefly to gently warm up cold mac-n-cheese, for example. (The lable warns not to exceed 194 degrees).
The spoons are wonderful; hard plastic with a rounded edge (that is gentle on baby’s still toothless gums) to scoop the food while the handle is rubbery and easy for baby to hold and/or chomp on while those teeth work their way on out. We also splurged and got the matching adjustable bibs for all three kids. My experience with Baby Bjorn design thus far is definitely a 5 star rating!
