No joke, after I bought the first one, I bought two more, because the baby loves them that much (and I lost the first one as soon as the other two came in the mail). You'll know that you have a teething baby when she starts drooling uncontrollably and starts biting everything--her thumbs, her toys, her mom... Our baby was chewing on her hands so much they were starting to bleed, starting this horrible cycle of crankiness, so I found this banana toothbrush thing and offered it to her. At first, she gave me a look like "What the actual eff, mom?" but then, like she does with pretty much everything she gets her hands on, she put it in her mouth, and the look on her face was probably like what I looked like the first time I had tiramisu. "What is this miraculous thing and how did I exist before I knew of it?"
The baby was inseparable from this weird pink banana brush for like a solid week. Then her teething pains subsided and she forgot about it. When the teething came back a few weeks later, I reminded her that the banana existed, and what a lifesaver it was.
The banana brush does pick up lint (and cat hair!) like nobody's business. Definitely wash it before giving it to your kid, and then give it at least a good rinse after it falls on the floor (maybe a little dish soap if you have pets like we do). I was afraid that it was going to smell like plastic softeners, and it doesn't. Just a very faint floral scent that quickly fades.
Highly recommended for teething babies! (And makes for very cute photo ops.)
