The bamboo children’s plate from Bambuskind made a very good impression in the test.
The crockery is biodegradable, hard-wearing and antibacterial. The suction base prevents it from tipping over while eating. The crockery is food-safe and free from harmful substances. Cleaning is easy and care instructions are included. Unfortunately, cleaning in the dishwasher and use in the microwave is not possible due to the material.

The first impression
The packaging and labelling
ℹ️ Here we take a closer look at packaging. Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor. In addition, adequate protection of the product must of course also be ensured.
Criterion | Remark | Score achieved* |
---|---|---|
Product protection | Carton is sturdy, product sufficiently protected | 100 points |
Sustainability Packaging | Item was packaged compactly – no plastic packaging was used | 100 points |
Product labelling | Labelling partially available – but the LFGB mark is missing | 70 points |
Miscellaneous | High-quality packaging, also suitable as a gift | 100 points |
Total | 93 points |
*The maximum score is 100 points
The bamboo children’s plate from Bambuskind arrived for our test in the typical shipping box, so it was easy to open by removing the adhesive strip and was delivered undamaged.
The box contained the children’s plate and a spoon, which was made of bamboo and BPA-free plastic. Care and operating instructions were also printed on paper so that parents know how to handle the bamboo crockery and plate.
No plastic was used in the packaging of the socket protector, but in this case the product protection is complete and the product was therefore in perfect condition. For this reason, the packaging is completely recyclable. It would have been desirable for the LFGB mark to clearly indicate that the product is food-safe.
The first impression is very good, as neither the product nor the packaging used was damaged.
After unpacking
Package contents and instructions
ℹ️ Most people’s first impression after unpacking is immediately memorable. Are the contents of the pack complete and does the manufacturer make it as easy as possible for me to use the product straight away?

After unpacking, there were three items on the kitchen table: the bamboo children’s plate, the spoon and instructions for use, which describe the product’s areas of application.
Although the instructions for use are quite brief, they are easy to understand due to the intuitive use of the children’s plate and the spoon in our test.
Installation and use went without a hitch.
Unfortunately, we were unable to find a telephone number and e-mail address on the packaging or in the instructions for use. The website does not provide any results, so customers can only contact the seller via Amazon or by post .
All in all, however, this is a good way to send a product.

The bamboo children’s plate with suction cup from Bambuskind impressed us with its functionality and sustainability in the test.
The crockery is biodegradable and offers a perfect solution for little food beginners with its subdivisions. The non-slip suction base adheres firmly to smooth surfaces and prevents the plate from tipping over while eating. It is important to ensure that the surface is dust-free, as otherwise the suction power is not one hundred per cent guaranteed.
The crockery set is also hard-wearing and antibacterial, which is an important criterion for us parents. The children’s crockery is food-safe and free from harmful substances such as bisphenol-A (BPA), melamine and plastic, which gives us a reassuring feeling.
Cleaning the crockery is very easy and uncomplicated, although it is not suitable for the dishwasher.
Care instructions were included so that our child can enjoy his new plate for a long time.
All in all, we can recommend the baby plate from Bambuskind to all parents who are looking for a sustainable and practical solution for their little ones.
Price/performance ratio
and ratings from consumers
ℹ️ Finally, we look at how the product compares to the competition. Can it keep up with the competition in terms of price and quality? Would we generally recommend buying it? We also analyse consumer reviews and check whether the critical and positive reviews are actually justified.
Criterion | Remark | Points achieved* |
---|---|---|
Price / performance ratio | Good price-performance ratio | 85 points |
Rating cut | 4.5 out of 5.0 on Amazon | 75 points |
Total | 80 points |
*The maximum score is 100 points
On the Amazon platform, consumers have given the product an average rating of 4.5 stars. Many customers like the fact that the plate is made from bamboo and is also made from BPA-free materials. Many customers also report that the suction cup makes it particularly difficult for the child to remove the plate from its fixed position. We can also confirm this in our test, although some customers criticise these features.
Prices of up to €36.99 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very inexpensive products are available from as little as €10.99. With a price of €24.95, the Bambuskindchildren’s plate is therefore in the middle price segment in our test. The price ratio is good for the quality and the range of services you get.
