> 3 dayOur infant baby doesnt have teeth yet but is at that stage where everything goes into his mouth so we figured wed order it early since at least its meant to be in the mouth and hed hopefully get used to brushing habits early. We were amazed at how much our baby loves this brush. He watches us brush our teeth and reaches for his banana immediately and goes to town scrubbing his gums. The two handles are perfect, he holds the brush in either hand or both depending on his mood and is able to hold and control it well (not always the case with primitive motor skills and other objects). A quick rinse when hes done and the brush is ready for next time. It looks cute too (we hate clutter on the vanity but this looks fine next to his yellow rubber duck for baths). After a bath I dry him off on the vanity counter and he was forever squirming but now he just grabs his banana and is calm/distracted enough to not cause a fuss. Similarly, we have a weighing scale pre bath-time that he would be squirming in constantly, making taking a stable weight figure impossible. Now he holds his banana in both hands, isnt grabbing the sides of the scale or baby bath-time paraphernalia on the counter and weighing has become a very quick routine. Were excited to have him start using this on actual teeth soon but not as excited as he is, which is about the best endorsement we can give.

> 3 dayWe bought this for my daughter bc our dog chewed up the banana teethers. (He tries with this, too, but we’re getting better at catching him!). It seems more pliable than the bananas, which has been great, and the nubs for the corn add extra texture for her to explore. The handles/leaves make it easy to hold while the bristles are fun for the tongue and soothing for the gums. To clean, we just add to the bottle dishes or occasionally throw it in the dishwasher. Plus, I’m originally from Indiana, so the corn is a fun inside joke from the old Indiana Beach commercials.

> 3 dayPros: Our LO loves bananas, so this was an exciting thing for her to get. After understanding the concept wed brush our teeth morning and night with no complaints. Easy to clean, soft and exciting. Cons: Only one for me. The bristles would eventually break off after my LO chewed over dozens of uses, so expect to replace every so often if your little one likes to brush and gnaw on their toothbrushes. Would I buy again? Yes. Would I recommend? Yes. Would I gift? Yes.

> 3 dayI bought this for my 3 month old son who is painfully teething. At first he cried when i put it in his mouth. It looked painful. The nubs made popping noises as they rubbed his gums. He finally started to chew on it for a minute and seemed smiley like he was enjoying it, and then got bored and started chewing his hand. Hair seems to gravitate to it. Like instantly when I took it out of the package hair appeared on it as i was merely looking at it. It might actually grow hair, im not sure yet. Anyways Im going to give it more time before I decide whether I want to keep it because it is super cute although maybe not effective for a my 3 month old that is without teeth or coordination just yet. Im also kinda afraid hes going to poke himself in the eye with it. Maybe im over thinking about that though. Update: im bumping this up to 4 stars because my son eventually loved this, when he turned 1. He will still occasionally use it because he is still teething, and he is now 2. As for the hair issue, if you have pets its still going to be gross all the time. And he never poked himself in the eye thank goodness. All in all this product is probably best for coordinated babies with existing teeth. Update: I was definitely right about it being best for coordinates babies with teeth. Its now been handed down to my daughter who got teeth super early (2 teeth by 3 months!) and her coordination is much better than my sons was. She loves this banana. Its held up through the years and it hasnt fallen apart at all! This was a great investment and I would definitely buy it again if we lost it at any point.

> 3 dayWhen I was putting together my baby registry, I had NO idea what to put on there besides the main items (which was pretty much whatever Amazon recommended...thank you Amazon!). Anyways, a friend went through my list and said, You need more stuff on here! So she sent me a bunch of items to be included, this being one of them. Honestly, my first thought was, this is stupid, why would I need a fake toothbrush? However, the price was reasonable, I had a lot of friends who just graduated from grad school so I figured this would be a nice to have on the list. No one bought it and I thought, hooray! I dont need more useless things. Well my baby was born and at 4 months, teething began (breastfeeding class never covered the pain of breastfeeding a teething baby!). She chewed on everything. A cousin bought me teething rings, she didnt really like those. I bought toys with those teethers. She got bored of them quickly. Then, I remembered the banana brush (I mean, who can forget such a thing!) and decided to try it out. All these positive reviews cant be wrong, right? I am sorry I doubted all you positive reviewers. This thing has been awesome! She loves to chew on it and will chew on it for at least 10 minutes. Do yourself a favor, dont be a dummy like me, and buy this.

> 3 dayI saw this on a list of “Best Teethers.” My granddaughter loves it. It is easy for her to grip & hold onto, & can be used as a toothbrush, as well.

> 3 dayEasy to use, sometimes little one doesn’t let me use it as a toothbrush he prefers to just bit it. We use it every day.
