Our read on it
The only item in the teething section that is not eaten, which makes it the least worrying choice: no crumbs, no calories and no question about grains. The banana shape is deliberate: the two long ends stop it going too far back in the throat, and the bristles massage the gums and get the baby used to the feel of a brush before any teeth appear, which is a good start to the habit.
Pros
- Not eaten, so no worry about crumbs or grains
- The long ends stop it going too far back in the throat
- Gets the baby used to a brush before teeth appear
- Washes and lasts months rather than running out
Cons
- A single piece, so there is no clean spare when it drops
- Silicone picks up lint fast on the floor
Important safety information
Stretch and inspect it before every use, and discard immediately at the first tear or cut in the silicone, since a torn piece is a real choking hazard. Use under supervision and never leave it with a sleeping baby or in the cot. Never tie it on a cord around the neck or clothing. Wash before first use and after every drop. Replace it every few months or at any change in texture or colour.
