Easy to clean, easy for kids to hold
Kids weren’t very excited about these when I first got them, they were too big for their 3-4 month old mouths. However, at 9 months they are a hit! Can chill in fridge if desired, and they clean up easily as there are no ridges or spaces to trap food bits.

Baby loves!
I have no idea what it is about these tethers, but our baby who refused pacifiers, bottles and all other tethers adores these! Maybe it's the shape or the bumpy texture on the outside, but either way we have bought these several times from Amazon. Reasonably priced and definitely worth trying! I will note that the shape is a little less hand like in person and more round.

Baby loves this one
Tethers feel COOL at ambient temperatures Our baby doesn’t like ref cold/frozen tethers do this is perfect. Finger like projections make it easy for baby to hold on to teether to chew in any gasped position . Bought a send set for diaper bag

Great-- meant for a child that can hold items in hand for long periods of time
This is the nicest ring I have ever seen for BPA free and water only filled. Very nice and useful product! Hard to describe but every smaller circle has an abrasion on it and helps with the teething process for a child. (Bumps for little gums to chew on in other words) I bought this along with the stacking cups (meant for 6 months plus putting them away for him) and the keys. So far my child loves the keys more than the ring cool soothing teether. I am sure in time he will love this item as well. He is only four months old and this is a little heavy for him to hold currently. I love that it's only made out of water and is BPA free! UPDATE-- NINE MONTHS OLD my child loves this teether so much I am buying another one. We have the apple teether made by a different company. He doesn't care for that one as much. The apple teether over time seems like there is not enough water. I am buying another one of the green sprout ones because I want one in the fridge at all times and the water in the teether is lasting a very long time for as much as it's been bit on and stuck in the fridge. The teether is going strong! The Green Sprout stacking cups are a big hit in the tub! They have holes in the bottom of them and shapes that I know I will use with my child in the future for sand and possibly art projects!

Easy To Hold Teethers!
My 7 month old granddaughter loves these Green Sprouts Cool Hand Teethers! The package contains 2 hand shaped teethers. One is pink and the other is purple. They are BPA AND PVC free with only sterilized water inside. The package does say that these should be put in the refrigerator. It doesn't state anything about freezing them, but that's what I have been doing and have had no issues. The teethers freeze quickly and stay frozen for 10-15 minutes. They are easy for her to hold in her little hand. She likes to chew on the "fingers" of the teether. They have little bumps that must feel really good on her gums, too! Highly recommend for teething babies!

Perfect
New grand baby who just started drooling (which means teeth are soon to follow) will love these. I may buy even more so I can keep a steady supply rotated in the fridge for her. These are perfect size and the textures will work great for her in the coming months. Once teeth come then it will be grandmas part to introduce her to the joys of a Caramello bar and my step son (the dad) to learn of the dealings with her on a Sugar High =)

My 8mo loves this teether! BPA- & PVC-Free is a bonus
My son looooooves this teether. Something about the shape or material - I'm not sure - but he isn't tired of it after several weeks of using it. We've refrigerated it to make it nice and cool for him, and that definitely piques his interest, but usually we just give it to him room-temperature and he still loves chomping away at it. Unfortunately, so does my dog.... she's managed to steal it a few times now but she hasn't pierced it yet! Thus, it's pretty sturdy :-) I don't necessarily make a point to buy toys made with certain materials, but when it comes to something my baby constantly will have in his mouth, the fact that this product is BPA and PVC free, and only filled with distilled water, gives me some extra piece of mind.

My husband and I purchased the Green Sprouts Fruit Cool Soothing Teether
My husband and I purchased the Green Sprouts Fruit Cool Soothing Teether, Apple Shape, when I was pregnant with our first child. Upon recieving the Green Sprouts Fruit Cool Soothing Teether, there were a few things that we loved. One that the Green Sprouts Fruit Cool Soothing Teether was easy to clean in the dishwasher or with warm soapy water. I loved that it was BPA free, as I was trying to do the best for my son. The shape of the Green Sprouts Fruit Cool Soothing Teether, Apple, was exactly like the picture. The Green Sprouts Fruit Cool Soothing Teether seemed a little firm which I thought might be a concern, but that really depends on the child using it. Each child or baby will have their own preferences. The Green Sprouts Fruit Cool Soothing Teether held up to us putting it in the freezer for our little guy since thats what he preferred. The fridge works well too. The Green Sprouts Fruit Cool Soothing Teether held up to being frozen over and over again as well as having little teeth chew on it. The teether didn't lose shape, firmness or get any holes. We will more than likely purchase another one for our daughter to use.

Amazing! Would recommend to anyone
Pros: so many! My daughter LOVES this teether. It’s her favorite. And it’s my favorite too. I love that’s it just had water inside and no chemicals or weird substances. Cons: I wish these were easier to clean. You can’t put them in a sterilizer or the dishwasher I would recommend these to any of my friends! I wish we just bought this teether and no other ones

Where do you see the word "freeze"?
So I was hesitant to buy these teethers because of the reviews. I decided to give them a chance though because I have several toys by Green Sprouts and i-Play and those are some of my sons favorite toys. I ended up buying two. I got the "Cool Hand Teethers" and clear ring. I am glad I did because my son absolutely loves these things. Now I want to start out my review by addressing a few things mentioned in some of the negative reviews. 1) "It bursts when I sterilize/boil/freeze it!" I want you to think about how water works. When you get water too hot what does it do? Boils. In a small space that would create what? Pressure. When you freeze water what does it do? It expands slightly. Creating what in a small space? Pressure. Where exactly did all of you think the pressure was going to go???? Granted the packaging does not say to not freeze or boil, but at least the boiling should be common sense. On the boiling front, while the packaging does not say not to, for the care instructions it does say to wash with warm water and soap. So it told you how to clean it. On the freezing front. This was off putting to me at first when trying to find a teether until I did some research. Pretty much all the "cool" teethers out there are not meant to be frozen. I think this must be one of those things our parents did so we all assume that these products are supposed to do this when in fact they are not. There are some terry cloth teethers I may suggest for you that are meant to be put in the freezer. Maybe they should have a thing that specifically says not to boil or freeze but again, I think the fact that it does not tell you to should be a bit of a hint. 2) "It's too hard/big for my infant" I honestly don't get where people are getting these are too hard. Yeah there isn't a lot of give to them, but to me that is a good thing. When you baby is teething they want to apply pressure to the gums to help with the pain. Something soft and spongy isn't going to do that. As for too big it depends on what one you bought. The hands say on them 3+ and my son is 6 months old so I really don't know how well these would have fit in his mouth then. Those complaining about the ring though....it says 6+ on it and it fits in my sons mouth just fine. He has been going to town on it at every turn. 3) "It doesn't reach the back teeth." I can tell you on both of these teethers that neither of them are supposed to reach the back teeth. There is a little picture on the top right corner of the packaging that highlights the front teeth on both of these teethers. Neither of these are supposed to reach the back. Now all of ^^^ that being said. Let me go on to my experience with these teethers so far. They were very easy to clean and as soon as I cleaned them I put them in a storage container and put them in my fridge. I didn't get a chance to time how long the hands stayed cold but the clear ring stayed cold for a while. It was really cold for about 3 minutes. Still pretty cold at 5. Then at about 7 it was pretty much room temp. So I would say, at least with the ring, that it holds in cold pretty well. I am keeping all of them constantly in the fridge so that if my son is teething bad I can take the warm teether from him, hand him a cold one, and put the one he just had back in the fridge. Just switch them out. Which is one of the things I liked about the hands. There are two so you can do this method at a pretty decent price. Texture! The texture on the ring is what I think really gets my son. There are several shapes that stand up on the ring that are on each little circle and he is loving running his gums along them. It also makes the ring in general just seem really cute too. The hands have a bit of a lighter texture, with them just being bumps but he still seems to enjoy them. Size! The sizes on these are pretty perfect to me. The hands are actually a little bigger than I thought they would be, but that is a good thing. Their thickness is about what I thought they would be. My son has a very easy time getting the "fingers" in his mouth and he will actually start on one and then move his way along to the other ones. The ring was super thick. I didn't think my son would be able to get it in his mouth, but he managed to just fine. Like I said he has been going to town on that thing. I have to help him now and again as it makes it's way around his arm and he can't get it off, but he is all smiles again once it is in his hands. The materials! I looked into Green Sprouts a while back and they are such a great company. Yes these toys are made in china. None the less Green Sprouts has listed on their website all the different things they avoid. I commend them on not only keeping BPA out of their toys but also BPS. It makes me feel secure in what is going into my sons mouth. So all together both of these are great toys as long as you are using them correctly and are giving them to a baby of the right age. Keep in mind that all babies are different. Just because the ring fits in my 6 month olds mouth does not mean it will fit in yours as yours may have a smaller mouth. Just because the hands don't fit in someone else 3 month olds mouth doesn't mean they won't fit in yours. Baby's grow at different rates. So if the sound and look of these teethers make them appealing to you I would give them a try. If they are too big for your baby then just tuck them away till your baby is big enough to use them. They are worth having. I have included pictures of the teethers and of their packaging.
