Greater than one weekSo I am totally using this product a bit off label, Im using it for our sweet 4 year old son, who has Autism among other things. He had a dental procedure in hospital this week, and it honestly made my eyes water the amount of work they needed to do. He struggles profoundly from the sensory side with brushing, he doesnt like the way the bristles feel, and even with a 3 sided toothbrush you can usually get 30 seconds at the most, often less out of him before he starts to freak out and fight you. So this was part of a plan I came up with to try and address the issue, since hes a heavy oral stemmer and we have to have items that are appropriate for him to chew on anyways to sub out for inappropriate items, like my books, etc. I thought it might help him get some extra cleaning in with his chewing, so to speak. I figured since the bristles are made of silicon, and hes used to chewing on that, he would tolerate them. And success! I pulled it out of the box, and handed it to him, and holy cow he actually stuck it in his mouth at the first sight of it! Squeal!! I really think this is a totally brilliant product, and I was hoping that it would be long enough he could stick it in the back part of the side of his mouth to chew, because he does that. And it is. My only reason for nocking it off, is that he sat down on our new pet cover for the couch, which is fuzzy, and immediately this thing came up covered in lint. The surface has some form of tackiness to it that exceeds any of his other current chewy items, and I think that is a slight drawback. I dont know how durable it will be yet, it does have a certain amount of give to it, so Im watching him carefully with it to make sure he doesnt bite through it. But otherwise, so far Im super pleased with this product and how it is working out, hes been using it a whole bunch over the last couple of hours, he seems to really like the texture of it, so Whoo-hoo!

Greater than one weekI just bought three more of these. My little one chewed this absolutely as the favorite teether. I thought it was just my kid - but Ive learned from 6 other friends that it is the #1 chewing thing for their kiddos too. Wowzers there is no other toy that so many of our children agree on as being the favorite. I bought to replace our current banana, one for the next kid and one to gift to a friend. I think this is one of the most valuable necessities. We have a dozen teethers Im sure and this is undoubtedly the best one. - one negative is that after extensive chewing some of the little rubber bristles can start to break off. Keep an eye out for this and maybe replace if you become concerned about them falling off. I bet we have 100 hours of chewing time into this thing before that started happening at all. Im still highly satisfied with it - but it is something to keep an eye out for.
