Choosing adapted cutlery

For kitchen and dining aids, start with the task you want to support: preparing food, holding cutlery, eating or drinking. Compare handle shapes, materials and the dimensions listed for each product.

Adapted cutlery styles differ in grip and shape. Check whether the item is sold individually or as a set, and read its cleaning instructions. Do not assume every product is suitable for a dishwasher or microwave.
