The NEW Unbelievabowl is a super strong suction bowl to help make life a little less messy at meal times. The unique Unbelievabowl has been designed to stick your baby’s highchair or your tabletop with ultimate, super suction power. Simple and easy to attach, once securely locked in position, it will be difficult for your baby to spill or remove the bowl, making meal times less stressful and less messy! Designed for ultimate convenience, bowls are interchangeable and are BPA Free. Truly Unbelievable!

Notes for using the Unbelievabowl:

USE THE SUCTION PAD ON SMOOTH, FLAT SURFACES ONLY. NOT SUITABLE FOR POROUS SURFACES.

To test the suction pad of the Unbelievabowl, secure it to a mirror. If the suction base adheres to the mirror, then the Unbelievabowl should attach securely to a smooth flat surface, such as your baby’s highchair. Please note that the Unbelievabowl is not suitable for porous surfaces such as wood, leather and some stone surfaces.

  • Excellent baby bowl.

    Excellent bowl for baby especially when you let them explore food using their fingers. My son was given a mango in this bowl and the bowl stuck steadfast to the table even when he had his face pressed into the bowl lapping up this mango we had given him. It's the first and only bowl we bought as there wasn't any thing like this out there.

  • glitteringly good

    I must admit I did not buy, so I am not sure of prices, but someone left one of these at our playgroup. Desperate for something to put glitter in during craft time, we decided to use it. No spilt glitter! The suction cup meant little hands could not snatch it away from other little hands, and clean up was just so much easier!

  • Perfect For Kids

    We got one of these for christmas from the grandparents and I cannot recommend this product enough. It's great for our son who wants to be independent without the worry of major spills everywhere. It also teaches him to 'sit still' which is hard at the 2 year mark. Would recommend to anyone with a toddler.

  • great bowl to avoid mess

    The baby Heinz basic bowl was great.

    My daughter had one , it was fantastic when she was learning to feed herself. Most kids pick the bowl up and turn it upside down straight away.The suction was strong , my daughter was unable to pick the bowl up.

    Easy to wash I put mine in rbe dishwasher and good price I paid $12 from toys r us.

  • Good value for price

    Definitely recommend to others, have used Heinz Bowls heaps with my kids and they are great. I do really believe that their unbelievable bowls because a regular bowl couldn't stick to surfaces and stop babies from flipping it. The price is great between $7-12 each and if it keeps food in I am all for it.

  • Fantastic!

    I was lucky enough to win an unbelievabowl a little while ago and was so impressed! Its so easy to use, and sticks to every table surface I have put it on. It doesn't slide around or come unstuck like other suction bowls I have tried in the past. I have no complaints.

  • I'm still loving this bowl. It's nice to be able to put his food in something rather than straight on the highchair tray. Regular bowls just kept ending up on the floor, so I gave up on them.

  • What an amazing invention!

    Wow! To say we love this product is an understatement! Even though dinner time is still messy it makes it much easier to get it done quickly and efficiently.

    I find that my little man eats much better using the bowl.

    The suction is great but I find if the surface is a little wet it can be hard to attach the bowl so hot tip just to use a dry surface.

    I think this is a great innovative product that should be an essential item in a family household!

  • VERY IMPRESSIVE

    Works really well with my daughter. I love how this suctioned down. It also encouraged my baby girls independent eating skills, without as much mess for this busy mum to clean up.. It is giving her more confidence to scoop up her custard on her own without it always dripping it down her front. It really is a great little bow for beginnersl.. it's a little pricey.. but money very well spent. I would recommend this to all my mummy friends for sure!

  • wonderful, great addition to any baby shower basket

    This should be an essential purchase for all new mums, nothing like this was available when my babies were young but I purchased one for my sister when she had her little girl, it is awesome, it allows you to spoon feed with the risk of cereal everywhere then when the child gets a little older they can feed themselves without wearing all the food, no more spilt or thrown bowls, they are cheap and are a great addition to a baby shower present because it is not something that you think of purchasing when having a baby.

  • Hygienic and useful bowl for kids

    I got Heinz baby basic bowl as gift from my friend, i did not use initially for some time but once I started using it, I liked it a lot, My child enjoyed eating in that, she would make the place messy, but still she enjoyed eating in that bowl,The design is good and the quality was also good and it was easy to attach to the high chair and it was convenient to use, I would strongly recommend this product for my friends as well.A great innovation for the kids.

  • Great for messy kids

    My bub insists on throwing everything from her high chair, and she can throw further than the drop sheet we have down to protect the floor from the mess! She finds this bowl frustrating because she can't throw it, but soon gives up trying and focuses on throwing her food instead! It definitely limits the damage she can do at mealtime though!

    My only problem with the bowl is that the suction works so well that sometimes I can't get it off her highchair tray!

  • Easy, compact, safe

    I have brought these for my twins and found it has made feeding time for both of them easier. I love the suction pad because it allows my twins to learn how to use the spoon without the bowl falling off the high chair. Great product would recommend it to anyone with young babies.

  • Baby Bowl

    I have 2 of these bowls and they have saved me on numerous occasions when the babies have had their tantrums and tried knocking over their food. They are easy to use and very easy to clean. I love that they have lids as I take the bowls with us when we are out and about. These bowls are a must have for anyone with babies 6+ months old. The only thing is they are a little expensive but very sturdy and will last years.

  • ingenius & helpful

    this bowl is pricey ($15 but i bought one on special for $10) but i really like it. If it was cheaper, i'd love to own more. Also more variety in colour or design or disney theme and that would be amazing. It sticks to my baby's highchair perfectly and stays put. On my other child's eating booster seat & table, it keeps suction but it can be pushed around, i think that surfaced it too polished. I do love this bowl and i have saved so much time and effort cleaning up because i'm not under the table with a dustpan cleaning up a whole bowls worth of food.

    It's so cute watching my baby try to pick it up

    Works really well with my Son, as he is a fussy eater and will usually whinge and tip the bowl over if he doesn't like something. Love how this suctioned down. It also encouraged my sons independent eating skills.. giving him more confidence to scoop up his custard. (always dripping it down his front) . Great bowl.. a little pricey.. but money well spent. I would recommend this for sure!

  • Great idea

    This is a great bowl, once stuck to our new highchair my littlie can't pull it off. It's tough & I love the colour. Unfortunately it wouldn't stay suck to the old highchair because it wasn't perfectly smooth but overall a fantastic product.

  • Unbelievaplate please.

    I have been using this amazing product for years. Went thru 3-4 different suction bowl products when my first daughter was around 1yo that failed miserably. She would easily pluck them off the table. And then I discovered this unbelievabowl and it worked unbelievably well. My first daughter is now 5yo and my younger daughter 1yo and this product is still serving us well! I have 1 sunction base and 3-4 bowls to interchange that has lasted for 5 years. I would love it if Heinz could come up with maybe a bigger dish type plate that would fit into the sunction base as well. Then we could fit bigger pieces of food like toast without having to cut it so small. Overall I would recommend this product to all mums. I've even bought this as gifts a few times before.

    I had seen these & been told about them. They weren't cheap but I really wanted to try it out. It was the best thing I have bought. They work so well. The little one lives it because it doesn't go everywhere & so do I. They are expensive but we'll worth the money

  • Great Idea

    I have one of these and a couple of bowls to interchange. Unfortunately they are a great idea but with my kids I found the extra height of the bowl due to the locking base made the bowl too high to be practical so I use the bowls but rarely use the base. My kids are short so proabably doesn't help!

Mopping isn’t exactly the chore most of us look forward to, but like most mums, for Katrina Macilroy, it’s unavoidable.

With three teenagers, a husband, a dog, two cats and timber flooring throughout most of her home, there’s plenty to keep her mop busy.

“I thought the toddler stage was hard, but teenagers take it to a whole other level,” Katrina told Mouths of Mums.

She describes herself as a ‘full-time Uber driver’ for her three kids, but when she’s home, she may as well be a full-time cleaner.

Her husband is a concreter, the family has plenty of sand coming inside and, with teenagers touching everything, the floors quickly show the evidence of a full family life.

“I have to mop like every second day because the floor gets marks,” she said.

So when Katrina was given the chance to try the Vileda Easy Wring & Clean TURBO Mop & Bucket Set, she was keen to see whether it could actually make one of her least favourite cleaning tasks any easier.

“I didn’t have high hopes for it to start with, because I’ve used spin mops before and I’d been disappointed,” she admitted.

But it didn’t take long for her to change her mind. One of the first things Katrina noticed was just how easy the mop was to use.

The foot pedal made wringing the mop quick and simple, without having to stop and fiddle with anything.

“It was so easy to spin it,” she says. “It wasn’t like you’re spinning it for hours or anything.”

She was also impressed by how quickly the mop itself could be put together, and the simple button that releases the mop head for washing.

“That simple press notion, everyone can do that. So I love that.”

It’s The Little Things That Add Up

For Katrina, who regularly finds herself cleaning up after a busy family, these little details made a surprisingly big difference. She also loved the triangular mop head, particularly when it came to getting into the corners and edges that her previous mop struggled with.

“The triangle design makes it easy to get into all the little corners,” she says.

But ultimately, the big question was whether it actually cleaned her floors. Katrina’s answer was an enthusiastic yes.

“My floor has never been so clean,” she says.

Katrina was also surprised by how light and manoeuvrable the mop felt, because at just 4’11”, she says mopping can sometimes be an uncomfortable job.

“I’m not a tall person, so trying to mop is always just a horrible experience.”

But she found the Vileda Easy Wring & Clean TURBO Mop & Bucket Set easy to move around and able to go in different directions without feeling heavy or awkward.

And it wasn’t just the mop itself that won Katrina over. She says the bucket design solved one of her biggest mopping frustrations: accidentally tipping the bucket over.

With timber floors, getting too much water onto the floor is something she tries hard to avoid. “The amount of mop buckets I’ve tipped over and just gone everywhere,” she says.

That can turn a simple cleaning job into another mess to deal with, particularly when you’re suddenly scrambling for towels and a dry mop head.

But Katrina says the Vileda bucket feels much more stable because of its design.

And for someone who mops as often as she does, she says that has saved her time. “This thing has saved me so much time, I can’t get over it.”

The Only Mop You’ll Need

Katrina also admits that she’d previously convinced herself she needed a steam mop. She even bought one, only to discover that plugging it in every time she wanted to clean wasn’t exactly appealing.

“You have to plug it in like a vacuum. Like, that’s not fun, I don’t want to do that.”

After trying the Vileda, she says she’s no longer convinced she needs one.

“Why do you need a steam mop when you can get this one?”

For Katrina, the combination of being lightweight, easy to wring, simple to manoeuvre and able to get into those awkward corners has made mopping feel much less frustrating. And despite going into the trial with low expectations, she’s now very happy to recommend it.

“I’m not trying to sell you a product, but I’m just saying that I’m very impressed with it. It’s really good.”

Her final verdict?

“It’s been really, really good. Recommend!”

This Real Story was provided as part of a paid sponsorship opportunity. Katrina was chosen to share her story because she was sent out and tried the Vileda Easy Wring & Clean TURBO Mop & Bucket Set, and genuinely loved it! And Vileda is so confident they’ve made the best spin mop ever, they’re backing the new & improved Easy Wring & Clean TURBO with a 5 Year Guarantee. 

  • This mop so good and the views all are positive so I just purchased one on milkrun through Woolworths and it come with 2 mop head refills. Can’t wait to use it.

    Reply

  • Yes, I couldn’t agree more. The Vileda spin mop is by far my favourite mop for a good thorough clean at home. I even got the landlords to purchase one for the holiday house I clean to make cleaning a breeze and get the job done properly. I always grab a spare when they’re out for half price.

  • Ah, I received a ‘you’re a finalist’ email from MoM for this fantastic mop but didn’t receive anything beyond that. I was looking forward to giving this a try to compare the three existing options I have but alas. Looks good, fingers crossed I can try it in the near future!

    Reply

  • Omg! Yes! With 4 dogs and 4 teens AND the guests they bring home with them LOL our timber floors and tiles don’t stand a chance! I would love to see them add some wheels to the bottom of the bucket so that you don’t have to carry the bucket around with you.

  • I feel like I really need to try out this mop now!!

  • This sounds like an excellent mop that makes cleaning so easy! I love a product that not only is as effective as advertised but makes a job less grueling. I gotta say though, a steam mop that plugs in sounds like an awful idea. I have a tineco floor mop, which is cordless and charges at a base, and it’s incredible on my white tiles.
