My little 5 months and 2 weeks has already 2 teeth and wants everything themselves take into their own hands and essen.Nachddem it is everywhere but would collect pieces too dangerous to give me her a slice of apple or carrot. She loves it when I put her into a banana or previously boiled apple. So they can eat comfortably WHILE we suck at their fruit sucker around. What they do not like is when the hard apple in it. You do not get from the small openings depressed. The sucker is easy to clean. Fruit wash out under water with washing up liquid, and boil from time to time. Looks, of course, after the first use is no longer new. But that does not bother me. I transport it with the fruit of pure and a bib in a small Tubberdose. So I have all the same reach. Since I only started with the complementary foods I could no longer make purely in the suction her. But I am looking forward to the first strawberries and raspberries. BEST TIP FOR CLEANING: Nubynetz with water and Spülmachinentaps on stove and cook something. Looks like new afterwards! Do not forget to clean after the power of decent cleaner. Place it after I've cleaned properly again with water again on the stove and let it cook something.
