Kitsch 'n' Fun Spaghetti Twirling Fork
by robosharkatron I bought this fork as a silly gift for a pasta-loving friend of mine who is an incredibly messy eater. I picked it up for about £3 so I can't really complain about the price! I was somewhat irritated to learn that this fork doesn't come with the required AA batteries. This isn't a major problem as people usually have a couple ... knocking around the house, but it's always a nuisance when battery-requiring products don't include batteries, isn't it? The fork is operated using a button. When it starts up, it looks somewhat menacing. I was surprised by how fast it spins- not dangerously so- but quick enough to stop your spag-bol from sliding off. When in use, the fork is a little bit noisy- certainly louder than a normal fork. It makes a low humming sound. It's not too irritating really. It's surprisingly heavy. I guess when you consider that it's a metal object attached to a couple of batteries encased in plastic, it's not really that surprising. It's not exactly comfortable to hold and you're certainly aware that you're using a novelty product. My friend is a devoted dishwasher lover and since this fork is hand-wash only, she often can't be bothered to use it! I usually use it when I'm at her house and wash it for her but, none the less, this is a disadvantage of this fork (albeit an understandable one, what with all the batteries and things). In summary, this product is great as a joke gift. It's cheap and cheerful. I think it would really appeal to kids and I can imagine it would be a great way to get picky kids to try out new food and textures. It has its downsides but for the sake of £3I have better things to worry about! Read the complete review |

Kitsch 'n' Fun Spaghetti Twirling Fork
by NicndDan Prior to my review of the Kitsch 'n' Fun Spaghetti Twirling Fork I had a glance to see what others had thought of it on the other reviews on here and it made me wonder....is it wrong for a 26 year old male bought one of these for himself? Because I did but it seems the Kitsch 'n' Fun Spaghetti Twirling Fork is perhaps aimed at the ... younger market to make eating more fun! I first heard of twirling forks really through the ongoing Pot Noodle promotion which I never won. I saw one of this in a discount store for just under three pounds and being a big kid at heart decided to give it a go and to be frank it has been used virtually non stop every since. I am one for eating supper of dishes such as super noodles and variety of noodle based or pasta based dishes. This is ideal for such a situation! The first thing I noticed when I took this out the packaging was that the Kitsch 'n' Fun Spaghetti Twirling Fork is a very well put together piece. Part of me expected it be cheap, flimsy and easily breakable but this is a solid piece of kit and I have dropped it several times and it has survived without shattering or breaking in anyway. I suppose that is one upside if you are giving the Kitsch 'n' Fun Spaghetti Twirling Fork to a nipper as they may drop it/throw it. My only worry if I was giving it to a child is that with the battery in this is quite heavy and should your kid drop it on themselves or indeed throw at it you if you are trying to make them eat food them simply dont want to....this will hurt. Saying that that is one minor issue! The performance of the product is very good indeed and this has a solid twirling motion to go with the solid construction and really the Kitsch 'n' Fun Spaghetti Twirling Fork does everything a product of this type should do! It twists its way through every product I have tried it with to short noodles the like of the super noodles and fresh pasta. It twirls it round in a nice consistent manner and provides what you need. All us lazy eaters can rejoice. All in all this is a solid product made with quality and the Kitsch 'n' Fun Spaghetti Twirling Fork will please kids and big kids equally!

Kitsch 'n' Fun Spaghetti Twirling Fork
by IzzyInTheHouse Kitsch 'N' Fun Twirling Spaghetti Fork A few years ago we got this for my daughter as a bit of a joke of a birthday present. She loves spaghetti but has an impossible time trying to eat it! She normally ends up putting it on her fork and sucking it. This is funny, but not extremely convenient! So as a bit of fun, we got her ... this! The Idea Not that hard to understand really. If your kid (I say that, but adults could use it!) has trouble eating spaghetti, noodles or tagliatelle then they can use this fork. You insert the fork into the food, press the switch and watch it do its magic. It turns clockwise and the stringy food becomes wrapped around it. You can then eat up your spaghetti or noodles etc.! The idea is actually very good and I think pretty original! Does it work? Well, yes it does! When we first tried it out, no one really knew what to expect. She flicked the switch and it began a quite loud buzzing noise. We looked around in a bit of amusement as it did sound a bit weird, I must say! But, it worked very well. It did what it was supposed to and after Izzy had turned it off again she could easily suck the spaghetti off of the fork. It isn't the biggest fork but you can get a reasonable amount of food onto it. It is easy to grip and even toddlers could probably get the idea of it pretty quickly. Price and Availability It might sound quite expensive but for what it is, it is a pretty good price really. Around £5-£6 in most places online and there are quite a few different colours. There is red like shown in the photo provided by Ciao, a purple and darkish green one, a light and dark blue one and a light pink and a pinky purple one. So, many different colours for boys and girls. Cleaning it Very simple to do. It is dishwasher safe (only the metal fork though as the handle has electronics in it obviously!) or you can simply wipe it over with a sponge and some fairy liquid. After all, the top bit is just a normal fork! A Little Note Just remember that it does require *** two AA batteries ***. They aren't included with the fork and you have to supply them. In case you are planning on buying it, it would be a nice idea to pop them in the gift as well; otherwise it can't be used anyway! If there is anything I haven't explained and you aren't sure about, don't worry as it comes with a really good set of instructions as well. They tell you everything you would ever need to know! Overall I think if you have kids, grandkids, nieces and nephews or just a friend's kid coming round regularly, it is a great idea. Izzy is too grown up now really and so it was passed on to Jess, my friend's daughter and she loves it as much as Izzy did! It is pretty tough and durable as well as easy to clean. Yeah it's a bit noisy, but if it makes them eat their dinner then surely it's worth it! Stick the telly on and it kind of drowns it out, I find. It is a great fork and is really worth the money! Kids love it and it makes them enjoy their food more. As Kitsch 'N' Fun say themselves - dinnertime has never been so much fun! And they were right! Would I recommend the Kitsch 'N' Fun Twirling Spaghetti Fork? If you have some connection with kids then yes! If you haven't and still want one? Contact a doctor lol! Thanks for reading!
