The Maccie Grip + Grub Stainless Steel Divider Suction Plate with Clear Silicone Lid is a 23 cm divided plate made for baby-led weaning, first foods and toddler meals. It's built for veggie negotiations, food throwers and fiercely independent eaters: separate sections keep foods apart, four suction points help keep the plate in place, and a clear silicone lid means leftovers go straight into the fridge.
The plate pairs a 304 stainless steel insert with a food-grade silicone base, so food sits on stainless steel rather than plastic. It's suitable from 6 months to 6 years and beyond, from first tastes and finger foods through to bigger-kid portions.
How it Works
- Divided sections: Separate compartments keep different foods apart, which can help selective or fussy eaters who don't like their food touching.
- Four suction points: The silicone base grips smooth surfaces to help reduce sliding and tipping during self-feeding.
- 304 stainless steel insert: Durable, rust-resistant and non-porous, so it resists stains and odours.
- Soft silicone bumper: The food-grade silicone base has a soft edge around the plate.
- Clear silicone lid: If your little one takes two bites and announces they're done, pop on the lid and store the rest in the fridge without moving it to another container. It also makes it easy to prep meals and snacks ahead of time.
How to Use
Wash all parts before first use. For the best suction, press the plate down onto a clean, smooth and dry surface such as a highchair tray or table. The suction works best on smooth, non-porous surfaces and may not grip textured or porous ones. To store leftovers or prepped food, cover with the clear lid and refrigerate.
Microwave note: The stainless steel insert must never go in the microwave. Only the silicone parts are microwave safe.
Care
The stainless steel insert, silicone base and lid are all dishwasher safe. Remove the insert from the base to clean each part separately, and let everything air dry fully before reassembling. Allow all parts to cool before washing or handling, and avoid abrasive scourers to keep the finish looking good.
Best For
The Maccie Grip + Grub Divider Suction Plate is a great option for parents who:
- Are starting baby-led weaning or first foods from around 6 months
- Have a toddler who prefers foods kept separate
- Want a suction plate that helps reduce mealtime mess
- Like to prep meals ahead or save leftovers without decanting
- Prefer stainless steel to plastic at mealtimes
It may not be the best fit if you:
- Want to heat or reheat food directly on the plate in the microwave, as the stainless steel insert isn't microwave safe
- Mainly use textured or porous surfaces, where the suction won't hold as well
Disclaimer
Never put the stainless steel insert in the microwave. Stainless steel conducts heat, so always check the plate and food temperature before serving. Suction performance depends on the surface and how clean and dry it is, so always supervise your child during meals. Inspect all parts regularly and stop using the plate if any part becomes damaged.
Pandylane Pro Tip: Match the plate with the Maccie Grip + Grub Bowl and Toddler Cutlery Set in the same colour for a complete mealtime set. It makes a thoughtful gift for a baby about to start solids.
