The product seems well made and durable, but unfortunately my son wasn't fond As I believe that's not fair, I did not take any stars off due to preferences. There are nubs on the material for texture, and it's a great tough, but chewy material. It is possible if he had had it when he was younger that he would have liked it more. In fact, I introduced it to him at the age of 15 or 16.
In a nutshell, It is SO squeaky when I bite it, and I must use my teeth to hold it in place, so I don't like it. Bought it to help solve my oral stims. In addition to having a very chemical smell out of the package, it has a smell after washing as well. I find the thickness of the handle to be appropriate for an adult (I am in my 30s) and the loop at the end is convenient to squeeze for stress relief, but I would not recommend it to someone who does not enjoy the squeaky sound.
My 13-year-old son chews on these for years, and I bought this for him to have a healthy habit. This has kept him from chewing on other things that could damage his teeth, such as pencils, straws, legos, etc. It has helped tremendously to keep him from chewing on other things. The product has been in use for about a month, and I noticed (recently) that he has not had the need to chew on it (or anything else). This seems to soothe him when he uses it (unlike the other household objects he tried to chew on), and I am less worried about him breaking I like it a lot.
This is a long-lasting, durable product. Even my child, who is quite the chewer, is able to use this. It lasts us about three hours as opposed to an hour or even a day like some other chews that we have tried We recommend that you use this product for four weeks.
I have a biter on my hands & feet It's like a child who eats everything in sight. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. In the beginning, when he starts biting, I redirect him to the toy. He stays biting on it for a while until he no longer wants to do so. The product is rated 10/10 by me.
We didn't consider this at the time of purchasing, but once our daughter (8 months) began using it As a result, she would constantly gag herself. It posed a choking hazard. As a result, we decided to opt for an alternative.
It was recently determined that I have both motor and vocal tics related to tic disorder. As a result of chewing on this, I feel less tics while I study or relax. Aside from being durable, it's also very affordable.
After about a month at home, my 3-year-old was able to gnaw on pieces off of this. I'm pleased with the product for what it's for, but wish it would last a little longer. I'll look for a stronger one now. The only difference was that it was always in the car no one chewed on it for hours at a time or even daily for that matter. With even that little use, it still started to break.
