The Wean Machine

Like many of the best inventions, The Wean Machine is a simple concept that has been thoroughly thought out and well designed. It looks rather like a large garlic press and works on the similar principle but with added features. It's portable and compact and comes with a spoon so is ready to pop into the baby bag ready for mealtimes.

Fruits and cooked vegetables are placed in the "cup", you bring down the perforated layer and in seconds you have puréed food ready for baby. I found that some foods with a high water content come out a bit runny but you soon get the hang of it and there's a lid to pop on so if you squeeze too vigourously you don't get it all over you (as I did when not using the lid!).

The Wean Machine is BPA, Phthalate and PVC free and can be sterilised on the top shelf of a dishwasher – but is not suitable for microwave sterilisation.

The Wean Machine is a great gadget that I am happy to recommend to other mums.

The Wean Machine is available from Amazon.
