This is actually the second time I’ve purchased this feeder — the first was over a year ago, and I bought it again a few months ago. That alone probably says a lot about how well it’s worked for us.The silicone is noticeably sturdy and thicker than some of the flimsier feeders I’ve seen. It doesn’t feel like it will tear or stretch out over time, even with frequent use and washing.One feature I really appreciate is the variation in feeding attachment sizes. That made it easy to adjust as my baby grew and became more comfortable with different textures and amounts of food.The latch feels secure — I’ve never experienced it popping open or leaking, even when my baby is chewing on it enthusiastically. It feels very safe and thoughtfully designed.The included silicone molds are a big bonus. Being able to freeze breastmilk or purees into perfectly sized portions for the feeder has been incredibly helpful during teething. The textured handle also doubles as a teether, which makes this feel like a multi-purpose product.One of the biggest benefits is being able to safely introduce foods that wouldn’t normally be appropriate in solid form yet. It allows exposure to new flavors with much less stress.After long-term use across two separate purchases, I haven’t noticed breakdown of the silicone or latch issues. For durability, safety, and versatility, this has been a reliable staple for us.Would absolutely purchase again.
