I bought this after my six month old folded his regular soothie binky in half and shove the whole thing in his mouth. Scared me half to death. I didn't want to deny him the only binky he really likes, but I also didn't want him to choke to death in his crib. So I got this one. It is solid enough that he can't fold it, and he loves chewing on the sides. The only problem we have is that for the first month we had it, it was too heavy for him to keep in his mouth. Eventually, he did get the hang of it, and now it is his favorite.

My daughter has used Soothie pacifiers since she was about a week old. Now that she's in the chewing stage (about 6 mo), we got this one for daytime use. She loves it! It looks funny when she sucks on it because it's so big, but she doesn't seem to mind.

My little guy had turned his old, barely-used Soothies into teething toys recently and we've caught him shoving the whole darn thing in his mouth. And while I'm not concerned about choking, it was clear he needed something 'more'.

As soon as I received this, he happily took to it.

He seems to enjoy the extra material for holding onto it while he moves it around his mouth.

It isn't the teething golden grail of a toy I was hoping for, but it seems to be a nice addition to his chewing-things collection.

These are great pacifiers because they don't roll as much as the regular soothies. They are also great for a teething baby to suck on. I like how easy they are to clean, too.

Love this pacifier/teether. My 7 month NEVER used a pacifier but needs to SUCK on something. This thing is HUGE...he doesn't really use it like a pacifier to suck on the nipple part, he just sucks on all the parts! It's great because every piece of this is suckable!! He totally grabs for this all the time and it's not a choking hazard because it's so big. I bought two of them!

Got this when my daughter was 3 months because she liked her other soothies so much and I thought she'd like the handles, as a pacifier this is not a great product but at 7 months she is starting to really teeth bad and this is the only thing she wants in her mouth she chews on the handles more than the paci part they are very soft and flexible way more so than the other teethers we have in the house. I couldn't survive right now without it!

My little one just loves to chew on this nice big soothie pacifier. The textured bumps and nubbies makes it feel nice on her gums.

What I like:

It is the same as her green soothie pacifiers - so it fits her mouth great and is of known really good quality. Single piece design is nice, and two different textures on the sides is good for choice. The size of the nipple is much better then that big berry nubby thing that looks like a ring pacifier - that is way too big for her mouth and the nubs all over the nipple part seem to be uncomfortable for her.

What I don't like:

She is 4 months old now, we got it a month ago. She is teething and chewing on things, but could not hold/manipulate this until recently for any length of time. Wanted a nipple that she would suck on and the nubs would be right under her gums if she bit down - this doesn't have that, nubs are only on the sides.

It's still too big and bulky for her to do much - and we don't give her a pacifier during the day now except at naps. So this was a bit of a waste of money for us. Gave it 3 stars for quality - but it's really not proven very useful for our family.

My 5-month old daughter love it. It's small, fit my petite girl perfectly. She can grab it and chew everywhere she likes. Good teether for small size babies.

I was given a soothie pacifier in the hospital and my little one was completly disinterested. When she began teething, I was looking for a variety of chewy toys and thought I would give it a try. I had read a lot of reviews about other models falling a part and becomming choking hazards so a one piece product was a must for me. Turns out that she really likes it. She will chew on all the different parts and it is easy for her to hold by herself. I would give it a try for your teething baby...provided a little releif for everyone in my house. :) (She is getting another round of teeth now so I am crossing my fingers that is does its job a second time around. )
