Product Information

Full details

The Tiny Dining Lenny The Llama Bamboo Suction Plate is designed for parents seeking a less messy mealtime for toddlers and babies. Its key benefit is the innovative 'stay put' suction technology that firmly attaches the plate to surfaces, preventing spills and plate tosses. A potential consideration is that while bamboo is naturally resilient, it is not indestructible and requires proper care to maintain its appearance and integrity.

FAQs

How do I ensure the suction cup works effectively?

For best results, make sure both the suction cup and the surface it will attach to are clean, completely dry, and smooth. Pressing down firmly on the plate helps create a strong seal.

Is the bamboo material safe for my child?

Yes, the plate is made from 100% natural bamboo and is completely melamine-free, ensuring it is safe for children.

Can I put this plate in the dishwasher?

No, this plate is handwash only. Dishwashers use high heat and harsh detergents that can damage the bamboo and the suction mechanism.

Is the plate microwave safe?

No, the bamboo material is not microwave safe and should not be used in a microwave.

How do I clean the suction cup?

The suction cup can be cleaned with warm, soapy water. Ensure it is completely dry before reattaching to the plate or storing.

What should I do if the suction cup loses its stickiness?

First, ensure both the cup and the surface are clean and dry. If it still doesn't stick well, try gently massaging the suction cup with a bit of food-grade mineral oil. Avoid stretching or distorting the cup.

How large are the plate sections?

The plate is designed with segmented sections suitable for holding various food types. Exact dimensions for each section are not provided but are proportional to a toddler-sized meal.

Troubleshooting

Plate not sticking firmly

Ensure the suction cup and the surface are clean and dry. Try pressing down more firmly on the plate to create a seal. Check that the surface is smooth and non-porous.

Suction cup is difficult to remove

Gently lift the release tab located on the edge of the suction cup to break the seal.

Bamboo appears dull or dry

Apply a thin coat of food-grade mineral oil to the bamboo surface and wipe off any excess. This will help restore its natural luster and protect it.

Discoloration or staining on the bamboo

Clean immediately after use. For stubborn stains, a paste of baking soda and water can be gently applied and wiped off. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly reduces mealtime spills and mess due to strong suction.
  • Made from safe, natural, and sustainable bamboo.
  • Hygienic properties of bamboo contribute to a cleaner eating surface.
  • Segmented design helps with food separation and portion control.
  • Durable construction offers resilience against typical toddler use.

Cons

  • Bamboo requires specific cleaning and care to prevent damage.
  • Suction may be less effective on certain textured or porous surfaces.
  • Not dishwasher or microwave safe, requiring handwashing.
  • While durable, bamboo can be chipped or cracked if dropped from a significant height.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the surface (tabletop or high chair tray) is clean, dry, and smooth for optimal suction.
  2. Place the plate on the desired surface.
  3. Press down firmly on the center of the plate, especially around the suction area, to create a secure seal.

Compatibility:

The suction base works best on flat, non-porous, and smooth surfaces. It may not adhere effectively to heavily textured, uneven, or wooden surfaces without a sealant.

Care Instructions:

  • Handwash only: Wash with warm, soapy water immediately after use.
  • Do not soak: Prolonged exposure to water can damage the bamboo.
  • Air dry completely: Ensure the plate is thoroughly dry before storing.
  • Not microwave or dishwasher safe: High heat can warp or crack the bamboo and damage the suction mechanism.
