Which adaptive bowl is best for adults?
Shop on Amazon.
Capacity: Unknown (Small)
Size: 4.75 inches diameter
Color: Blue and White
Style: Scoop Bowl with Suction Base
A popular scoop plate for adults, because its extra easy to eat with. You can sure see how a spoon can scoop loose food up the blue side. Just ride the wave! What’s less visible is the round white base that creates suction between the bottom of the bowl and a flat, smooth (at least semi-glossy) table surface.
Let this be the first time you see “the same bowl” sold under “a different brand name”. Like the blue? See the PEKOKAVO full blue set.

Capacity: Unknown (Medium)
Size: 6.3 inches diameter
Color: Red and White
Style: Scoop Bowl with Suction Cup Base
You can see it’s the same “Suction Base” adaptive table-grip style. This time in red, which is easy to see for anyone, including people with Alzheimer’s Disease and other dementias to associate with “time to eat”, including people who are hard of sight to “know where to sit”, including for forgetful folks to “find that gosh darn red bowl, I could have sworn…”.
Again, we see “the same bowl” sold under “a different brand name”. Like the red? See the PEKOKAVO full rfed set.

Capacity: 6 ounces (Medium)
Size: 7 inches diameter (12 inches long with handle)
Color: White and Gray
Style: Stable Bowl with Bodyweight Handle
The ultimate handle for messy adult eaters who actually need to get a grip. Can you see how the silicone grip part runs along the bottom of the bowl part AND the handle base? This thing can hold a normal adult’s full body weight to push up from a low-seat dining chair. Just make sure the table can bear the weight.
Shop on Amazon under brand name Maddak.
Shop on Amazon under brand name SP Ableware.
Capacity: Unknown (Small)
Size: 4.5 inches diameter
Color: Blue and White
Style: Scoop Bowl with Suction Base
I won’t say more about Maddak or SP Ableware or Fablife or the first Rehabilitation Advantage blue scooper. Lack of original innovation in the caregiver products industry happens all too often — company and brand names change and rearrange but the product stays pretty much the same.

Capacity: Unknown (Large and Heavy)

Style: Weighted Bowl with Easy-Hold Edge
This bowl weighs a heavy-feeling two pounds, designed to stay steady for a person with shaky hands or low fine motor control. I like that it's a perfectly round and aqua-marine color with a little side nub that’s easy to grab with either your left or right hand.
Capacity: 8 ounces (Small)
Size: 6.5 x 6 inches oval shape
