Vive Foam Tubing (9 Pack) - Utensil Padding Grips - Spoon, Fork Round Hollow Medical Closed Cell Tube - Cut to Length - Provides Wider, Larger Grip Pipe Tool for Dexterity, Disabled, Elderly

Who would have ever thought I would need these? Not me, BUT I DO & they work great! I use them on my utensils at home occasionally. And I actually brought a piece into work, and I use it on my pill scraper "spatula" which has a thin handle like utensils. I have RA so my joints get affected, where I cannot bend my fingers, and these help immensely. Very easy to cut and use :) I can see where these would be helpful for the elderly as well.

UPDATE: My apologies! Apparently I only unpacked 2 sizes and placed the bag containing other sizes elsewhere. Totally my fault! I’m so sorry for giving a poor review. I found the bag with the other sizes and all is well. I’m still using the other tubing as it holds up well through regular use and washing. Old review; I was a bit disappointed in that I had to cut both horizontal and vertical to make 2 of these work for the average USA toothbrush and 3 vastly different size sets of silverware I tried. This seems extreme to save $2 or 3 dollars from competitors offering more size.

The red ones works great for the silverware- wish the were sold separately

These do work - I've tried them. Easily cut the tube into sections that fit your size. These really helped me. Wishing you all the best.

This is a good product but it needs some tweaking. I have really bad hand pain and not only did I have to cut the tubes to length like for a pencil but it didn't fit in the tubes with the smallest holes same for a lot of my other items. So I have to cut them into two vertically sometimes trimming a lot and then tape them together I don't like the feeling of the tape on my hands. I don't want to use glue as it may make it difficult to get the tubing off when I need to replace the item. It took a lot of effort to get the tubes on my hairbrushes a lot of "alerations are needed. I am glad I bought them though. need larger holes and easier assembly.

I bought these for a friend who has neuropathy in his fingers. The extra size and grip helps with holding utensils while eating.

My essential tremor has worsened. It is embarrassing to drop food off of my fork at meals out. The extra oomph of a fat handle helps. I carry a 3.5 in piece of the red and blue sizes in my purse for eating out. I feel much less self-conscious using an aid than I do dropping food onto the table. These are comfortable in my hand, and the two larger holes fit around most utensil shapes. The cost is well worth the self-confidence it gives me. And hopefully others will see that there’s no shame in using aids to improve one’s quality of life. One other important point. My wife has a latex allergy and I was worried these might have latex. I contacted the company and they told me they are latex free. If they truly are, I suggest the company put that on the box. (So far, she hasn’t reacted when I use mine, but that is an important factor. Please confirm for others.)

I liked that it fits tight on spoon and other stuff. Only thing is having to cut to insert if your item is not big ir thick. If your item is round, skinny, then it is easier to push through. If you cut it then it doesn't fit as snug.

Does exactly what it’s meant to do

Pues no fue tan funcional, el más pequeño término usándose para cubiertos. Producto cumple con la descripción. Maneja buenos colores

Bought this for our uncle to help him with holding his cutlery and pens etc. Does the job well. Easy to cut and fit to size.
