 Recently recalled in Canada Nov 25, 2009
By M. Farkas
"librarianmer"
I bought one of these teethers for my infant son and just learned that Health Canada recently recalled this teether as testing "revealed that the liquid filling of the teether may be contaminated with the bacteria Bacillus sphaericus/fusiformis. These bacteria generally do not cause illness. However, the bacteria may cause infection in children with weakened immune systems if the teether is punctured and the liquid filling from the teether is ingested or enters open wounds." http://cpsr-rspc.hc-sc.gc.ca/PR-RP/recall-retrait-eng.jsp?re_id=885 While this might not be enough to deter some parents from purchasing this teether, I thought others should be aware of it.

 EXCELLENT teether BPA free, non toxic, gentle on gums yet tough Sep 28, 2008
By Miranda
"enjoying lit"
We've literally tried dozens of teethers since our son started teething at two months. He has incredibly sensitive, raw gums (he can fall down, bang his head, and be fine, but with teething, he's miserable). We've tried homeopathic remedies like Hyland's liquid and quick dissolving tablets (with little relief), nighttime Orajel, and tons of teethers from teething blankets, to animals, to cold (even frozen) washcloths, to refrigerated teethers from every manufacturer we could find - even organic. Unfortunately, teething on soft stuffed teething animals doesn't appeal to him.
The newborn refrigerated teethers help the most because they are cool and the softest on raw gums, but as soon as the first tooth broke through, we had to discontinue using them because of the bursting risk. The next level of teethers are necessarily harder; made out of thicker material, but they're too harsh on puffy, raw gums. Until we found Natursutten! What a difference!!! You can feel the difference in your hand by squeezing them. They're not as thin as the newborn teethers, so they won't break with baby teeth, yet they're not hard like most teethers, so they're much gentler on red, puffy, sore gums that need soothing and gentle easing to let teeth come through. Even refrigerated, they retain they're gentleness. They are an amazing find for us! Another Plus: both the yellow apple and blue fish have an open design and enable a way to secure them to a stroller or car seat bar so your child can access the teether when he/she needs it and won't lose it!! Check out the "Baby Buddy Secure a Toy" that come in lots of colors. Wonderful for pacifiers, teethers, and toys!
We're also trying the Learning Curve Vibrating Star teether with success, but it doesn't go in the fridge so when pain is at its highest, Natursutten seems to be the way to go. Hope this helps as much as it helped our little one!

Finally- a safe teether of this style! Sep 03, 2008
By A. Peters
I have been searching everywhere for a safe teether for baby! I am trying to avoid buying "made in China" items and also am looking for BPA free toys/feeders/etc. This is EXACTLY what I wanted. It is made in GERMANY and has to meet at least the European (which is more strict than USA) safety requirements. I am comfortable with allowing baby to mouth this toy to soothe the pain from teething, and it is so good that I can stick it in the refrigerator for a nice cooling sensation on baby's gums. DO NOT FREEZE IT. I think the blue fish style is the cutest rather than the yellow apple, but I have both and they are both wonderful. SO MUCH BETTER than what I have been able to find in the department and discount stores around here.

perfect teether Jan 15, 2009
By B. Seeman
This is a great safe (i.e. toxin-free) teether. It seems to be the perfect level of firmness and my son holds it easily because it's more or less shaped like a thin donut and he can get a great grip on it. It's also easy for him to hold in his mouth with just his teeth so he can be 'hands-free' to crawl and play. As a parent, I appreciate and value that it is BPA and PVC-free; I was willing to pay a for those features, in addition to its' being made in Germany rather than China. I definitely intend to purchase more to keep as spares in the fridge.
