Unbelievabowl by Vital Baby |
I was recently given the chance to review the Unbelievabowl by Vital Baby and I was very interested to test it out as I had not yet found a child’s suction bowl that actually works!
The Unbelievabowl consists of a suction pad and a bowl which twists and clicks onto the suction pad. It retails at £4.99 which is not too bad considering it is BPA free (Bisphenol- A), Latex free plastic and that you get the suction pad with a bowl included. The Unbelievabowl is designed so that you can fix the suction pad once and then untwist and remove the bowl when the meal is finished. If needed, you can buy a 2 pack of extra bowls to fit the suction pad for £3.99. You don’t have to leave the pad fixed to the tray but you can if you want to.
I was sent the orange version of the Unbelievabowl but it is also available in a bright blue colour and a gorgeous vibrant pink.

When my daughter first started weaning I bought lots of different suction mats and suction based bowls and not one of them stuck securely to her highchair tray! This Unbelievabowl does stick to the tray but I’m afraid I have found that it does still move around a bit when she pushes it and also it is quite hard to attach the bowl to the pad when it is in situ on the tray. I have had occasions when I have managed to get it to stick firmly and then other occasions when it has been stuck to the tray but my daughter has still managed to move it…. but not REMOVE it. Ultimately the bowl does stick to the tray but not enough to stop my daughter moving it around. My daughter is now 22 months and probably too old to be using this bowl as she is strong enough and stubborn enough to pull at it until it budges.. However I can imagine this would be ideal for when you are first starting to wean your child as you could fix the bowl to the tray and not have to worry about your young child knocking it over and you ending up with bright orange food stains everywhere! I hate orange food stains! They have ruined so many of my daughter’s lovely clothes as she always managed to get orange baby food on her … even with a bib on! Nothing would ever get them out. Talking about stains, you will see from the photos that I managed to get the suction base into contact with a tomato based sauce. Needless to say it has stained the base and nothing will get it off. The bowl itself is very easy to wash though and no stains have remained on that, which is fantastic.

It is great that you can use the bowl in the microwave and wash it in the top rack of the dishwasher.. . .I like anything that makes life easier!

I would just like to say thanks to Vital Baby for sending me the Unbelievabowl to review and also thank you for being so kind as to send over 4000 pre-sterilised disposable bottles to those in need during the recent disaster in Japan. I am sure your kindness made a huge difference to the lives of all those mothers and babies during such a unimaginably difficult time.
