Customer questions about this product
What are the different weights for Flatware?
Restaurant flatware comes in four different weights: forged, extra-heavy, heavy, and medium weight. The weight refers to the type and quality of the stainless steel and does not necessarily correspond to the heft of an item.
- Forged flatware is the thickest and strongest as it's made from a single piece of thick stainless steel and is extremely durable to withstand any commercial environment.
- Extra-heavy weight flatware is a premium grade and exudes a level of quality for finer establishments, feels sturdy, and is difficult to bend. It is made from either 18/0, 18/8, or 18/10 stainless steel.
- Heavy Weight Flatware is more durable than medium, and makes for a nice presentation for fast-casual or mid-level eateries.
- The lightest option is Medium Weight Flatware, also called economy weight, and is commonly sought after by the value-minded customer.

Allow for autonomy in your assisted living facility, nursing home, or hospital with this Richardson Products Inc. comfortable grip 8" weighted adaptive tablespoon. This 8" long spoon is made from durable, weighted stainless steel. It is permanently attached to a weighted textured rubber handle for extra stability during use. The handle's wide grip is intended to help individuals living with Parkinson's, arthritis, hand tremors, or any other cause of poor grip strength, securely hold the spoon. By having a wide grip this utensil requires less gripping power than traditional flatware, and since the handle has a plastic coating it is also easier for patients to maintain their grip when tremors or spasms do occur.
This tablespoon boasts a mirror polished finish and is ideal for use when serving vegetables, soups, stews, and sides at your facility. Flexible in design, it can be bent at the base of the handle to angle the utensil in the desired position to cater to each individual's range of motion. Plus, the textured ribs on the handle allow for extra grip to prevent the utensil from being dropped. With an easy to clean, ergonomic design, this spoon is made to improve dexterity and control while providing users with added independence, making mealtimes easier for both staff and residents.
