Dangerous! Protruding metal - beware
1 Star
Dangerous! Protruding metal - beware
After using these only a couple of months, a metal piece from inside the plastic poked its way out near the head of the spoon. If I had not noticed it while washing it, my toddler could have easily cut his upper lip on the metal -- this is very dangerous! Beware and inspect your Boon utensils very carefully. I liked the idea of the flexibility in the spoon, but not if it's at the expense of safety.

These are fantastic if you have a young child who likes to "help" during mealtimes. The utensils are very shallow, so you can't get much on them. That is actually a good thing for a beginning feeder, though. I can put a small amount on the spoon, and my son can work on feeding himself without wasting a ton of food. With the chubby handle and easy bending (I can do it with one finger while he's holding the utensils), he's been pretty successful getting the food into his mouth from the very beginning. These probably won't be very useful when he gets old enough to feed himself completely alone, but, with a little parental assistance, they're great for teaching the skill and fostering independence in a new eater.

We received these utensils today in part of what I called my "Make Mama and Papa's Like Easier" Kit. These spoons are part of our efforts to teach our 14 month old how to feed herself. They are small but perfect for our little girl's tiny mouth. We ordered the light blue/white version and they are lovely. Baby Girl loved them and took one in each hand. Since she has not picked a dominate hand yet it is good they they can change for either hand. The bent angle is perfect for her self-feeding and the handles are just the right thickness for her hands. Great job Boon! You have another hit here! BTW we also love our Boon Lawn drying. Boon does such a good job blending form and function!

Great product, easy to bend and as a grandmother with some limited mobility that helps. My 8 month old granddaughter loves to self feed with this spoon/fork set. She will also just chew on them too as they are soft enough for teething infants to enjoy. I like the fact that I can change direction of the spoon as my granddaughter has not yet shown a hand preference. The bowl of the spoon is nice and shallow and great for eating. The handle width is just right for little hands just learning to self feed. Great design.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent training set of spoon and fork
Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2013

I took a chance and ordered this set based on the reviews I read on amazon. They turned out to be great for my 15 month old. He got so excited when he fed himself fruit with the fork. I highly recommend this product to the Moms who wish to train their toddlers. My son had a sense of achievement and I was thrilled to see that.

Someone had mentioned in their review that the surface area of the spoon is small. I agree but you cannot have a small child have too much on his/her spoon when self feeding... It would be all over the place.

The best part about the product is the way they bend on either side. Great product!!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for 11 mo old's first attempts with spoon; Fork useless
Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2013
Verified Purchase
Reviews for this product seem split evenly between positive and negative. I think it depends on your kid's age. These are small. They are perfect for my 11-mo old, who has started to take an interest in spoon-feeding himself. The size and shape are perfect, and the raised edge of the spoon bed prevents peas from falling off on the way to his mouth. However, the raised edges also prevent him from getting all of food off the spoon if it's mushy stuff like oatmeal, which I don't mind. So it's a good spoon for self-feeding, not for the adult to feed baby with.

I'm giving it three stars because I wish they'd sell just the spoon, because we don't use the fork. He's still at the chewy/bitey stage, so he chews on both ends a lot. I'm afraid the pieces of the fork will break off in his mouth with his aggressive biting. Also not sure if it can really be used to spear anything.

This spoon was the best spoon for feeding my baby pureed food/cereal. It was just deep enough to hold the puree, but not too deep that it was hard to get the food into her mouth. It was just the right size for her mouth, so it wasn't a stretch to get it in. You can bend the head of the spoon to make it easier to get to your baby, and it was the right size for her hand if she wanted to try using it herself. We haven't had a reason to try out the fork yet, but I'm sure we will make use of it when we are ready to teach her how to use utensils on her own. I would only purchase this spoon if I was going to rebuy her utensils.

1.0 out of 5 stars Poor for Babies, but Needed by Disabled Seniors
Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2014
Verified Purchase
The circumference of the heads of this spoon and fork duo is the size of a quarter, making it possible to scoop up a nickel size (or smaller) portion of liquid or solid. For children who have small mouths, that's probably OK, but for a bigger or older child, such a small serving size could be frustrating.

Although the BPA-free claim was a selling point for me, handling these utensils in person and reading the USES and WARNINGS have been a disappointment. While cutting them free from the heavy cardboard and plastic packing, I nicked the back of the spoon with the scissors. The scrape is visible and textured.

Each item bends and twists easily in practically any direction, and the user is instructed not to bend it further than 90 degrees. You're also advised not to microwave the product, which makes me wonder: What's under the plastic? Is it metal, and if so, hopefully it isn't something toxic, such as lead. Secondly, if a kid can use these utensils, he/she might also be capable of bending it. My hands are arthritic, and I didn't have a problem bending them. I surmise that a child who is old enough to feed himself/herself will have a field day amusing him/herself with the items' pliability, and I hope that he/she will never get to the core of what makes these things so flexible.

In addition to DO NOT MICROWAVE, further instructions about care and use include: Wash thoroughly before initial use and after each use. Wash each separately. May be hand washed and it's dishwasher safe. Store in a dry, clean place, away from direct sunlight and heat. Do not leave the product in disinfectant (sterilizing solution) for longer than recommended. NEVER leave child unattended while feeding. ALWAYS use with adult supervision. Do not bend beyond a 90 degree angle in any direction. Check product before each use, and discard it at first sign of damage.

Why I bought the product: I didn't read the individual reviews, which would have been wise because there were a few single star ratings and warnings. I bought it because the average star rating was four, and the items' flexibility appealed to my curiosity. I didn't purchase the set for a child. I bought it because I see the product's market potential for senior citizens and the disabled who have difficulty feeding themselves. For a child, the utensils still deserve a single star. For seniors and the disabled, if this product were larger, but still light and flexible, it could be an asset for them and deserving of more stars.

Love these. Silicone handles are soft and they easily bend to the angle you need them which is great depending on what the child is eating. They don't lose bendability and are sturdy.
