Frequently Asked Questions

Are these utensils safe to put in the dishwasher?
Yes, but with a temperature limit. The stainless steel heads are dishwasher safe up to 125°F. To preserve the rubber handles and extend the life of the set, use a gentle cycle and avoid high-heat drying settings. Hand washing is also a great option for long-term care.

How much bigger are the handles compared to standard utensils?
The built-up rubber handles measure 1.5" in diameter — significantly wider than standard utensil handles. This larger diameter reduces the amount of grip force needed, making them much easier to hold for individuals with arthritis, tremors, or weakened hand muscles.

Are these recommended by occupational therapists?
Built-up handle utensils like the Blue Jay Big Grip set are a commonly recommended adaptive eating aid in occupational therapy. They support independent self-feeding for individuals with conditions affecting hand strength and dexterity. Consult your OT for personalized recommendations.

Are the handles latex-free?
Yes. All handles in this set are made from latex-free rubber, making them safe for individuals with latex sensitivities or allergies.
