"My littlest who is now 21months enjoys these the most, but my 5year old doesnt as much (he prefers to use his regular plates instead). The eyes of the smiley face are large enough of a circle to hold single serve Greek yogurt cups or prepackaged cups of applesauce or fruit. As a mom, many times I get into the routine of just serving one main food dish and not really giving my child the opportunity to try and eat multiple foods to provide a more balanced meal."
"We were very excited when we saw the ad for the ex pz mat.We're grandparents that babysit daily and dumping her plate is her new phase."
"I was really excited to try these after I saw them on shark tank however I think my son was a little too old\clever for them."
"She seems much happier at the table and seems to focus much more on actually eating just like mummy and daddy rather than throwing things on the floor."
"Since realizing the problem I've been washing, airing, sniffing the plate to see if the smell is gone but it is still there! Because of the smell, I tossed it in the dishwasher to see if that'll help. Only the blue smells. Mat did not last with washings and my kid was eating soap fragrances."
"I love the idea however it took my son only 5 seconds after trying to pick it up from the edge of the bowl to go to the edge of the mat and pick up the whole mat."
"My 14 month old figured out the first time I used it how to get his fingers under the corner and lift the whole thing up."
The ezpz happy mat is a placemat + plate in one that suctions to the table, which means that it captures kids' messes and eliminates tipped bowls or plates. One-Piece placemat + plate contains kids' messes.

I mean it's totally fine to let your baby eat off the table germ wise because it just goes to their stomach and the hydrochloric acid kills most bacteria. These are BPA free so you can rest assured that your little one isn't consuming weird plasticy chemicals and also are eco friendly."
"I like that I can let my toddler eat off the table without worrying about how clean it is, and it contains mess well when we roll it up (fold it in thirds and then roll it to use the adhesive to help stick to itself.)."
"New parents who frequent restaurants or hate to clean the table up after every meal."
"Perfect for going out to a restaurant."
"When my son was just using his fingers to eat, we could put bits of our food on these placemats and not worry much about the cleanliness of the table."
"At home, that's not a problem, but when we go eat out and the table has been cleaned with God-knows-what (or not cleaned at all), this has become a life saver."
"I took the advice of a few other reviews and like to wrap the bottom edge around the table and stick it to the underside of the table so the whole area is clean. They have stickies on all four sides, and they're pretty solid (once it looked like it might have pulled up some of the finish on a cheaper table, oops)."
"The adhesive covers are difficult to find the ends and get started and once they are pulled off the flemsey covers want to ball up and stick to it's self."

"He uses the top mostly for things that he doesn't want to get crushed and uses the bottom for heavier items like cans, bottles, and tupperware containers."
"My middle schooler and I will be using these next year, as I am tired of trying to squeeze food into a typical rectangle kid lunchbox."
"It takes up so much space in work refrigerator I hope people aren't annoyed!"
"This is more of a cooler than a lunch box!"
"Got this for my boyfriend to take his lunches to work."
"Large lunch box with different compartments."
"I purchased this bag because it was one of the highest related lunch bags on Amazon."

Find Best Price at Amazon"If you answered yes, then eliminate all ideas or notions for sippy cups from your mind and buy these. 1 week after switching to these, our toddler was able to take sips from regular open cups/glasses. Your standard spouted sippy cup is just a bottle with a harder nipple. Yes, because when I buy a sippy cup, I expect the cup to magically cancel out the laws of motion, force, physics, momentum and intertia. The fact that this cup does not suspend the laws of the natural world when it comes to matter, and its Newtonian movement has totally made me rethink my purchase of these cups.No. No sippy cup in the world can meet this impossible standard. OMG, I DIDNT KNOW THE RUBBER PART CAME OFF, THERE'S ALL THIS MOLD. You didnt read the little card that came with it that explained how the top came off?"
"I cleaned it off and it was easy to put back on but my cup doesn't work the same anymore."
"UPDATE - 2017/12/08. Tips to help better understand these cups... 1) There are 4 different parts to each cup that need to be cleaned: cup (solid plastic, colored), lid (solid plastic, white), spill seal (soft rubber, colored) and lid seal (soft rubber, clear). 2) Filling the cup to around 1/8" lower than the lowest inner edge around the cup, at the bottom of the threads, can prevent seepage of the liquid through the top."
"Our son loves these cups."
"I have a 21 month old that has used these since she could start sucking out of a sippy and now she uses cups with no lids. When the baby grabs these they can suck out of any part of the top of the cup instantly. But as a mom it’s the no spill or leak factor that I love the most."

"My 17 month old son loves these forks and has no trouble using them."
"Love these spoons, they fit my 7 month old sons hands well."
"The feature to keep the spoon itself off the tabletop doesn't work in real life - what toddler is coordinated enough to set the spoon down the exact right way every time?"
"My one year old had been using a set of plastic utensils that worked great for very soft foods and for safely learning how to use a fork, but the better he got at using them the more he began to get frustrated that he couldn't get the food on the fork because the prongs weren't long or sharp enough."
"Perfect sized forks for my nearly 16 month old..."
"They are easy for her to hold, and the shallow shape of the fork end makes it easy for her to scoop up food as well as to stick it, so this works like a combination spoon and fork."
"We have washed them numerous times in our dishwasher on high temps with no wear & tear issues."

Find Best Price at Amazon"I make our baby food at home using the steam/hand blend/freeze method but this allows us to make baby food right there on the spot and it's nice and fresh. Sure one can argue (poorly at that) that a fork and bowl could yield the same results, but dump your fresh food right in, give the small pulverzier a push and about 2 spins later, you have fresh baby food. I like that you can feed your baby right out of the bowl and clean up is a breeze."
"This was the perfect item to mash up food to give to our 11 month old. UPDATE: - over 6 months later and we have pretty much stopped using this product as our son is old enough (and has enough teeth) to not need most foods mashed up. We look forward to being able use this the entire time with this baby."
"I made fresh peas and green beans and had a harder time mashing than, say, sweet potatoes or bananas."
"He's starting to be old enough to be eating table food - If I had it to do over again, I would have bought it 3 months earlier AND would have gotten two!"
"On our first trip to SD from LA we took a couple of avo's and bananas and i must say it worked like a charm, it was fresh, quick and pretty clean as you smash directly on the bowl you are feeding the baby."
