The Homecraft Lightweight Foam Handled Spoon is designed specifically for individuals with limited wrist or arm movement, including those suffering from arthritis, to facilitate easier self-feeding. By featuring a specialized 40-degree angle, this utensil minimizes the need for painful wrist cocking, offering a comfortable and secure dining experience through its ergonomic, chunky foam grip. While it is an OT-recommended tool for enhancing independence, users should be aware that it is strictly for hand-wash use only and is not compatible with dishwashers.

No, this specific model is engineered with a 40-degree angle specifically for right-handed users.
No, this utensil must be hand washed only to prevent damage to the foam handle.
The handle has a diameter of 28mm, designed to be "chunky" for easy gripping.
It is OT recommended because it has been tested to meet standards for functionality, ease of use, and safety for individuals with limited mobility.
It features a stainless steel head, a plastic stem, and a closed-cell foam handle.
Ensure the handle is thoroughly dried after washing, as moisture trapped on the surface of the foam can temporarily reduce grip security.
Check that the handle is not being exposed to high heat sources, such as stovetops or dishwashers, which can cause the material to expand or weaken.
No assembly is required; the spoon is ready to use immediately out of the package. Because this is a specialized personal care utensil, it is best kept in a dedicated drawer or utensil organizer to maintain the integrity of the foam handle. Care must be taken to only hand wash this item in warm, soapy water and dry it thoroughly. Do not place this utensil in a dishwasher, as the high temperatures and harsh detergents will compromise the closed-cell foam and the stem connection.
