I have ordered from Amazon.com probably a hundred times and this is my first review, because this is the first time I've received something that was just awful. I received the package right at lunch time, so opened it immediately and washed for use. I suctioned it to my 13 month old daughters high-chair tray and put her lunch inside of it. I walked back to the kitchen to grab her sippy cup. When I came back, she had the dish in her hand upside down with her lunch spilled out on her chair and all over the floor. I salvaged what I could and tried suctioning again - thinking it was my fault at first. The suction felt really strong. I sat and watched her and within a few moments she had it off again. I tried wetting the bottom of the suction ring (thinking of some of her bath toys with suction). Again, the suction felt strong. I kept her from grabbing at it. I checked the seal after about a minute and there was zero suction - it was releasing the seal on its own. I will be returning this item immediately for a refund.

The idea behind these cups is a good one. But they just don't deliver. I used them on my twins highchairs (plastic trays - not wooden) and they stuck on great -- for about 60 seconds. Unfortunately, my children take a little longer than 60 seconds to finish their food. So I find that I am constantly re-sticking them on. Not worth the $$.

The suction cup on this bowl doesn't work on the SVAN high chair plastic tray. My son threw the bowl and the Cheerios in it all over the floor the first time he used it.

Wish the suction worked a little better but overall its a nice size for a toddler meal

This product is absolutely fantastic. Until we got this item for our 2 1/2 year old, meals could get pretty exciting in an instant. But now, meals are much more predictable since our little angel can no longer launch his bowls across the room. The lid stays on nice and tight, and the suction base really holds firm. The rubberized handles make it easy for mom and dad to get hold of as well. I am sure that my mother wouold have killed for this bowl when I was a kid.

I've tried several brands of covered bowls including Sassy and this bowl. The Munchkin is by the far the superior product. The lid snaps on easily, stays on, doesn't leak, and does not warp in the dishwasher. The suction ring also continues to stick, even after multiple washing. This cannot be said for the Sassy. My only complaint is the higher price and the unavailability of this bowl. Why can't I just by it in a store like Target?

The first thing DD did was to toss this off her tray. The suction bowl didn't stick to the tray. It could be because her tray is wooden, and it may work better with plastic trays.

On the plus side, it comes with a lid which is handy.

Suction ring on the base is not good and our 15 mo old is able to pick and throw the bowl.

We bought this for our toddler and instantly found out the bowl does not stick well to the high chair or the table. We decided to put it aside for when our child was older for a lunch. First week of pre-school we put some plain pasta with grated cheese in the bowl using the cover to secure it. When we unpacked the lunchbox after picking up from school that day, what a mess! Pretty bummed we can't find anything that works that well. Love the concept though.

Don't waste your money! The suction on these bowls does not keep them in place on the high chair tray, on a wood table, or on a formica countertop AT ALL! I'm not sure what type of surface they might stay put on.
