This unsolicited review is from: Adaptive Eating Utensils: Evo OT Ware Easy Grip Utensils
My wife has a disabling malady for years. Couldn't hold a spoon, fork or any utensil. We saw utensils and thought we'd try them. We are amazed. They work great. For the first time in several years she doesn't need someone to feed her. She now is using two (fork and spoon) really well and she's trying to get more proficient with the knife. The "flex" ability makes them perfect. Thank you EVO OT, my wife is now having a meal without being feed. I'm ordering an extra set for travel and me or leaving in night table when she can't come to kitchen dining table. When she was in hospital they didn't have anything like these...don't get it?
She cried with joy after she first feed herself with her EVO OT utensils. I like using them and find myself using them and I don't need them but they are appeal as a "comfort" tool. What took so long? GREAT INVENTION.

My mom had advanced dementia and is having trouble using utensils. The first time she used these she was able to get more food onto the spoon and into her mouth than she can with regular utensils. Wish I'd gotten them sooner.

You can probably guess that I was an engineer by training before becoming a computer professional! I haven't yet but promise to comment in Amazon as to the functionality and your kindness in your handling of our special needs. Thank you again. Robert
EVO OT, THE BEST THING SINCE THE STRAW... fork, spoon and knife are great for those challenged with any number of maladies., July 29, 2014 maxBialystock
No not yet, my world has been kind of turned again so no VA yet. I turned someone on to them for their kid though. And a man who is losing his sight, he thought they were awesome. Ill get back to you later. Thanks, Kathy Popp
