It's a good idea, but perhaps better with bigger kids. My 7m old been on solids for 2,5m now and still didn't quite figured this out. If you simply squeez it the pureed food doesn't come out, she also needs to suck/bite on it. Cleaning is a bit tricky, I think the design is too long. You need to twist it on going over the wide part of the plastic screw on the bags, otherwise it comes off easily, this took us a few messy trial to figoure.... We might get more out of it later on hence I have gave 4 starts, otherwise I would give 2 for current use.
