FAQs
Is the Tiny Dining Bamboo Suction Bowl truly spill-proof?
The 'stay put' suction technology is designed to significantly reduce spills by firmly attaching the bowl to a smooth surface. While it's highly effective, extreme force or pulling can dislodge it. It's designed to withstand typical toddler mealtime movements.
What makes bamboo a good material for baby bowls?
Bamboo is a natural, sustainable, and renewable resource. It's naturally antibacterial and antimicrobial, free from harmful chemicals like BPA and melamine, and durable. It's also heat-resistant, making it safer for warm foods.
How do I clean the bamboo bowl and spoon?
It is best to hand wash the bowl and spoon with warm, soapy water and rinse well. Allow them to air dry. Avoid prolonged soaking or using abrasive scrubbers.
Can I put the bowl in the dishwasher or microwave?
No, this bamboo bowl is not suitable for dishwashers or microwaves. The high heat and harsh detergents in dishwashers can damage the bamboo, and bamboo cannot be used in a microwave.
How often should I oil the bamboo?
To maintain the bamboo's condition, it is recommended to wipe it down with a food-grade oil like coconut oil or beeswax approximately once a month, or whenever the bamboo appears dry.
What is the purpose of the segmented design?
The segmented design allows you to keep different types of food separate on the same plate. This is beneficial for picky eaters who prefer their foods not to touch, or for presenting a balanced meal with distinct components.
How do I detach the suction cup?
Simply pull the small tab located on the edge of the suction pad. This breaks the seal, allowing you to easily lift the bowl from the surface.
Troubleshooting
Suction cup not holding firmly
Ensure the surface is clean, completely dry, and smooth. Re-apply pressure to the base, ensuring the suction cup is properly seated. Check the suction cup for any debris or damage.
Bowl feels dry or rough
This can happen over time. Apply a thin coat of food-grade coconut oil or beeswax to the bamboo and let it absorb to restore moisture and suppleness. Repeat monthly or as needed.
Food stains on the bamboo
Rinse the bowl immediately after use. For stubborn stains, gently scrub with a paste of baking soda and water, then rinse thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To use the suction feature, ensure the surface of the table or high chair tray is clean, dry, and smooth. Place the bowl onto the desired surface and press down firmly on the base. For best results, ensure the suction cup is fully seated.
Compatibility: The suction cup works best on non-porous, smooth surfaces such as sealed wood, high chair trays, glass, and laminate. It may not adhere effectively to heavily textured, porous, or uneven surfaces.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: We recommend washing the bowl and spoon by hand with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry.
- Bamboo Maintenance: To prolong the life and maintain the suppleness of the bamboo, wipe down the bowl with a small amount of coconut oil or beeswax once a month. Allow it to absorb before the next use.
- Avoid Soaking: Do not leave the bamboo to soak in water for extended periods.
- Not Dishwasher Safe: While the bamboo is durable, high temperatures and harsh detergents in dishwashers can degrade the natural material over time.
