What Is Travel Cutlery And Why Do You Need It?

Travel cutlery is cutlery that goes beyond the cheap, single-use plastic that fills up the trash and litters the ground. But oftentimes the alternative is cheap stainless steel that bends after two uses. 

That's why buying high quality travel cutlery matters. And GoSun is right there to provide the best, most portable flatware on the market. 

GoSun's solution  to combat the single-use plastic problem is its new product called Flatware. 

Flatware is...

Reviews of GoSun's Travel Cutlery

But to quote Levar Burton from Reading Rainbow, don't take our word for it. Our customers love GoSun Flatware for its versatility, cleanliness, and zero waste. Check out some of the reviews here

I love how convenient they are! They take so little space that they’re always handy when needed. There are times when you just have pockets available, and these take so little space, yet just take a few moments to be ready for use. We love them.

Others use Flatware at their workplace.

I love the compact size and versatility. I use mine everyday for my work lunches and had used it for carry-out food as well. Very useful and handy to have around, and the slim size makes it easy to carry even in your pocket.
Flatware has even inspired entire groups of friends to completely foreswear the use of plastic utensils forever. 

Flatware is meant to be a gift. I bought a pair for myself, of course, but I gifted many. This resulted in 12 friends swearing an oath to never use plastic utensils ever again. This is so flat that it fit anywhere. Thus, no excuse remains to not have them around. The whole planet isn't saved just yet, but this is a very good step in that direction.

 Here's a transcript of the video. 

GoSun Flatware is the world's first credit card size cutlery set and with it you'll never have to throw away single-use plastic again.
Flatware is a complete set with fork spoon and a little serrated knife, plus a hygienic case to protect you from unwanted grease. Made from durable stainless steel, Flatware is thin enough to fit in your wallet so you always have it with you. GoSun wants you to love your flatware set so we can kiss single-use plastics goodbye.
This video will show you how to get the most from your new utensils. Unclip each utensil from a protective case with a nail or fingertip. In the side finger slot, holding the sheath in one hand, slide the utensil out until it clicks into position. To collapse back down, squeeze both of the springs and press the utensil into the sheath clip back into the case and you're ready to roll.
If you find your Flatware to be a bit sticky we recommend a small dab of coconut oil or other cooking oil between the utensil and the sheet. Sometimes the utensils need a tiny adjustment as it can get racked, requiring straightening or being pushed down too far into the sheath.
Use Flatware just like a normal utensil skewer with a fork slice. With a serrated side of the spoon, spread, stir, scoop, and enjoy scrumptious savory, spicy, or sweet snacks.
Flatware works great as a flat utensil, although some people may want to add more shape to their set. If that's you, we encourage you to gently bend the utensil head's neck until it's at the optimal bend angle. However, after bending, keep in mind that your utensil will have a harder time sliding in the sheath and may require two hands. Some people may prefer the feel of Flatware when the utensils are flipped over in the sheath, making different contact points on your hands.
Maintaining a sanitized set is easy if you use a little soap and water after every use. Avoid using abrasive scrubbies if you want to maintain the pristine polish on the stainless steel when loading into the dishwasher or uv sterilization chamber.
We recommend completely removing the utensil from the sheath. To do this you pull the utensil out in the same direction that you'll use it. Don't forget to wash the protective case as well when reloading the utensil. Be careful that the springs are located within the sheath flatware can be stored even while wet, as it's made 100% from stainless steel.
Also, if you're on the move, Flatware can be wiped clean and then stored dirty while keeping your belongings away from the food debris. Each set comes wrapped in a paper box that doubles as an educational tool for anyone interested in flatware. Tear apart the six awareness cards to give them something to take home and learn more.
Finally, GoSun is here to support you and help you maximize your flatware. Please let us know if you have any questions concerns or improvisations at support.gosun.co. Thank you for joining the fuel free frontier and working to eliminate single-use plastics.
