Works for me
When it comes to assistive eating devices, different things work for different folks. My current diagnosis is Essential Tremor, although that can change at any time. My daughter bought me heavy eating utensils and they did not help me at all. I have both the spoon and the spork in this design now – they are very light weight and they are the most effective utensils I have tried so far. Sometimes even these do not get the food from the plate to my mouth, despite my struggles. I am fortunate to live in a senior living place with a lot of compassionate co-residents, and they encourage me to go ahead and eat with my hands when it is not a sloppy option. P.S. I have had Deep Brain Stimulation surgery for my condition, but as some of you out there know, it is not always effective. Just trying to share some pointers with you all.

Perfect Eating Tool for Stiff Patients
This is a perfect Utensil for people that have lost their “Range of Motion” or who are stiff. Also for people who have lost or have poor coordination. The bend in the Utensil- MakesGetting the spoon to your mouth/ much easier! To understand how it will work- Pretend you are using a Spork -like this! Make a Fist -with the Proper Hand- Leaving your thumb sticking out ( Like the metal part of the Utensil will be.)— Now bend YOUR Elbow- like you are bringing your Thumb (the food -to your mouth. —When you bend your Elbow -enough to get the Utensil- Any Where Near Your Mouth! WITHOUT the Bend in the “Spork”- you REALLY Must “Cock” your wrist to get your thumb ( the food ) into your mouth. That motion -is not easy -for “ Stiff “ patients! THIS IS THE ANSWER!😊👍

Light weight
I love the lightness. Someone who has strength issues the light weight is fantastic and hard to fine. The handle is comfortable. I would make one with the food surface smaller to keep the bites smaller to help facilitate and encourage smaller bites

They come for left or right handed
Bought this for my father in law who had dementia, it was hard for him at first, but got better

Great spoon, but handle is too thick
This is a good spoon and the angle is good for someone with limited movement. However, in the case of someone who is experiencing contracted fingers, the diameter is too thick to handle and use without difficulty.

My Dad and my sister Love it!!!
This spork goes with the spoon I bought a while ago. My Dad is ambulatory and suffers with great palsies in his right hand. And of course he’s right handed. These items make meals so much better for him because he is able to feed himself again and not dependent on my sister to help him eat his meals which frees her up so she is then not so stressed in her time constraints. This makes every day just that much easier with the 2 of them at least. And if I can help my Dad feel more independent and my kid sister a little less put upon each day, I feel like I might have helped a little more than I’m able to physically. Every bodies Happy!

Wrapping caption
Why is the product in a plastic wrapping with a label which reads: “WARNING Cancer and Reproductive Harm”

Works well for my mother with arthritis in her hands. The spoon area is large enough to scoop food or use the fork.

La persona no la ha usado le cuesta mucho trabajo sostenerla porque no tiene fuerza en sus manos y se le cae pero para una persona que pueda sostenerla resultaría muy práctica
