I was looking for items to use that would be more comfortable and found this website.

I have never ordered from it and was wondering if anyone else has?

I use a number of Good Grip items and was happy to see the utensils because I have very little grip in either hand now.

Along those lines, the best kitchen utincil I have found is a pampered chef can opener. It is one of those safe edges can openers but you dont have to grip it closed as you do with regular can openers, just close it once and it stays closed until you remove it. Works very well!!

I don't know what your level of function but I am currently in school to become an occupational therapist and one of the things we're taught to deal with is weak grip. There is something called a universal cuff which wraps around your palm allowing you to slide in objects(utensils, brushes, etc.) If you have a higher functionality there is all kinds of other stuff out there. I'm not comuter savy so I don't know how to post a link but there is a company called AliMed www.alimed.com. They have A LOT of differen't rehabilitation equipment but if you click on the bath safety, modality, ADL section you will find a selection of "adapted utensils" and "universal cuffs". I hope this will help.

Kath & Becky,
Both of the web sites have great stuff that'll make my life easier. Thanks, both are equally good,"BPI-ers" you should check them out. Anything I can do to make my life simpler and easier I am doing & it all makes a big difference--even small utensils.
Hugs all around,
