Title: Rheumatoid Must Have!
Review: I purchased a set of these for my grandma- she has rheumatoid arthritis and in the last year, the nodules on her hands have become quite bad, limiting her range of motion and have made everyday tasks difficult.Eating had become difficult so my grandpa asked me to start looking for a set of arthritis silverware. I landed upon this set and let me tell you, I am SO glad I did! For the price I was honestly blown away. They came wrapped in a sleek black box, rolled in a cloth made to store and travel with the silverware. They weren’t overly heavy, but they have a very nice thick grip to them. They have changed eating for her.She no longer struggles to eat- she’s no longer dropping her silverware, getting a spoonful of soup or cereal to her mouth successfully is no longer a Herculean task. There has not been a single meal (at home) since we have purchased these where she has not used them. She even told her rheumatologist about them, she was so excited!If you’re even thinking about purchasing, I genuinely cannot recommend them enough. Eating is a task we take for granted, so seeing how something as simple as adaptive silverware has changed her life is just amazing.She has only had one complaint: the knife isn’t very sharp (it doesn’t cut meat well at all!) but it’s definitely more of a traditional “butter knife”, so I would keep that in mind.But genuinely, such a worthwhile purchase, and one I would gladly make again.

Title: I despise the knife it has no serrations
Review: I misunderstand the type of tool that this was, so understand that as I speak about it. I thought this was a slightly built up handled weighted feeding tool. That was my misunderstanding and not the fault of the manufacturer.Due to the fact that it is built up, however, there is a slight amount of added weight but nowhere near an actual weighted utensil.I was advised to use a 7 oz weighted tool for feeding for myself. I have apraxia, and tremors which this feeding tool has helped with moderately. As noted above because it is built up there is slightly more weight to it so there is some benefit there.What I did love about this particular tool is the stop at the front of the handle before the actual utensil parts. it makes it more difficult for it to slide out of your hand and you put your hand in your food. That is a problem that I experience on occasion, so that is much appreciated.I enjoyed the fact that instead of it being a bulky round built up tool, it is a more flattened version but still built up. For me, personally, it is easier to hold due to that fact. I have difficulty holding the extremely huge round feeding tools that are built up. With those, I have to feed myself like it’s a shovel. I prefer more humanistic approach and eating, such as being able to hold my eating tools properly. I can use this European style or American style.what I hate about this, and I mean absolutely hate, is that the knife has zero serrations. meaning that I’m essentially smashing my food into bits and I cannot see how this would possibly work on anything tougher than even chicken. I tried to eat an andouise sausage with it today, and all it did was squish out the meaty bits onto my plate. Then of course there’s a hot mess on my plate that’s all squished everywhere. for someone with limited dexterity and trouble with swallowing, this was not ideal.In fact, I just quit eating the sausage because it was spewing all over my plate instead of being cut up into relatively nice round bits that I could manipulate easier. I mean, I like andoise sausage but I basically picked it because it would be easier for me to manipulate. It’s meat in a tube, and then it wasn’t. So that was something that I definitely would not rate as good.Overall, if you needed a slightly built-up handle that was more flat than round, this is a wonderful tool. Well, except for the lack of serration on a dull knife. I mean I wasn’t expecting Chicago cutlery, but I could have just as well tried to cut it with my fork and mash it all up.

Title: Worth every penny
Review: I rarely write reviews. My 90 yr old father moved in with me last year. I started looking for solutions when he began dropping utensils, complaining of losing feeling and strength in his fingers. I ordered these and he can’t go on about them enough. He loves em. They’re easy for him to use and he no longer has to “put his mouth on the plate and scoop the food in like a dog”. It’s important to maintain dignity as we age. He’s happy. I’m happy. So glad to find these.

Review: My husband is losing the use of his arms and hands and this set has the only fork that he can use to allow him independence. The utensil handles are not round but flatter and this is what allows my husband to use the fork effectively. We have tried others and this is the only one that works for him. I bought a second set just to have a second fork on hand. This set came very quickly and in a nice carrying case. Highly recommended!
