Travel Powdered Formula Dispenser
This product provides a great way to carry formula during the day or while traveling. I've never had a spill and it takes up little room in both my baby back pack (which is small) and my husband's Diaper Dude bag (which he refuses to carry much in). Also with the BPA and toxic worries with liquid formulas in cans and plastic bottles we've learned powdered formula is the best way to go for now and there's no small powdered container I know of yet. This also allows you to dispense not just for bottles (like the UMix bottle for just one serving) but for sippy cups and straw cups as well. I prefer the smaller dispenser for the day and the three-compartment dispenser for flying or day trips. The combo pack was perfect for our needs.

Wonderful - with the correct expectations
I bought these bowls expecting them to end the food-dumping behavior that so many are complaining about. The reviews are correct - they won't help with that. The suction is not strong enough. But what they are good for is helping a child who is learning to self-feed master spoon-related skill without having to worry about the bowl moving around. They're really good when your child is self-feeding cold cereal applesauce oatmeal etc. A smart buy but will come in handy a little later than you might think.
One more thing - the suction is greatly improved if you lick the bottom of the bowl before you stick it to the table. Unfortunately this lead to a period when my son felt it was customary to lick things before putting them on the table but this passed quickly.

KidCo Baby Steps is a great product!
This excellent product allows me to easily make healthy tasty homemade baby food puree with minimal effort and quick clean up! My daughter is new to solid food and the KidCo processor is able to make very smooth purees when some liquid is added to the cooked food. Clean up is a snap because the motor is housed in the lid and the other parts are dishwasher safe. Some reviewers were displeased with the lack of an on-off switch; but in actuality pressing the motor housed in the lid activates the blades. The turbo feature can be pulsated for a finer puree. Some reviewers also found that the lid sticks; this happened to me once and I realized that you must use caution when twisting the lid into place. If it does get stuck turn it gently in the opposite direction to reallign the tabs and it will pop right off. I was also quite pleased with the freezer trays. Some reviewers found that it was difficult to remove the food cubes (yummy squash-pops!)but I simply gave it a light spray with olive oil before spooning in the puree and made sure they were frozen completely solid before attempting removal. I was so pleased with this product that I am giving it to my sister-in-law as a Christmas gift!

Excellent product.
I make my own baby food and I got both the freezer trays and the travel dish so that I can pack food for my little guy to take to daycare. It worked out great. The food fits from the freezer trays right into this dish so every night I popped them out of the trays and into the travel dish and put them in the refrigerator. They defrosted overnight and my little one had food for daycare the next day. Having the spoon right there was great too.

Deceptive Origin
This is a nice set however it claims to be made in Korea and the truth is parts of it are made in China. The spoon and fork clearly have "made in China" stamped on them with ink that washes off.
Here is the founders response;
All of the products in the Feeding Set except the spoon and fork are made in Korea. We do third-party testing on all of our products to make sure that they are adhere to our chemical policies. We were unable to find someone that could make the spoon and fork in Korea. Although the reality of it is that most products that say Made in somewhere other than China are actually still made in China and just assembled somewhere else. But the real issue is still not China. I previously worked for a testing lab funded by NIH and there was equal concern across every major country especially the US.

Wish i had these earlier!!
These are the coolest things you could possibly have if you child is already snacking on goldfish cereal grapes or anything small like that. they can grab and hold their own food without you having to worry about picking up a mess later. there's no lid that you have to remove unlike what i used to have to remove when i carried my sons snacks around. they're ready to go! these are especially great for the car. with my son my car is a disaster from all the little things he used to eat and then drop. this is no longer an issue with this. although my son is a little thinker and loves to figure out how things work so when he's bored he'll get fancy and make a small mess but as long as your kid is hungry and isn't too worried about how this little cup is supplying their food no worries for you. i especially like these ones compared to another brand "snack trap" i believe these are see through and i think they look a lot better. i like the way the plastic feels also.
all in all get these!!! eliminate messes everywhere you go! why NOT get them?

love these!
I bought these on a whim after chucking all of my corning ware and melamine plates after one too many shatter incidents. I was looking for something nice and at least matching when I came across these.
These are so cute and perfect for little kids. They are on the small side but they work great for us and I think the size is perfect for a bowl of cereal or a snack. I love the wavy sides. My kids are 5 4 and 2. The sizes work for all of them. I bought 2 sets of the 5-pack bowls and 2 sets of the 5-pack plates. I love the color and they are very substantial looking not cheesy at all. The fish design is too cute and the colors are vibrant and cute (but the reason I bought 2 sets of each is because the 4 and 5 year old will fight over a color. the 2yo doesn't care.. yet.)
I did find them over a dollar cheaper per set at my local dept store.

Best spoons EVER!
I bought these spoons because I liked the bright colors. They looked fun and like they would capture the interest of my little man who was just starting on solids. I also purchased the soft-tip Munchkin spoons (that are similar to the Gerber brand) and the Nuk temperature-sensitive spoons. Well the Nuk and Munchkin spoons never get used because these spoons combine all of the best features of both. First these spoons have a deep basin like the Nuk spoons. The padded tip spoons are so shallow that you can barely get any food on them. Second these spoons have a soft tip. The whole basin of the spoon is actually flexible which makes for a more comfortable eating experience for your baby. Third the bright colors really do capture the baby's interest so they are more likely to pay attention once they get to that age where they are easily distracted. Finally they have a longer handle than any other baby spoon I've seen so feeding is easier for the feeder. They are not temperature sensitive but who feeds their baby without checking the temperature of the food anyway? This is one of the best products I've bought for my son! I would like to notify you that the colors I received are not the same as pictured. I received two spoons with pink basins (one with blue and one with green) and one purple spoon that is a pastel purple with yellow so three of my six spoons are girly. Not that it really matters just fyi.
