NULU Testimonials
Kayla Connor - Occupational Therapist
"I'm Kayla, an occupational therapist who works with clients of all abilities. I've seen how meaningful it is to help people continue doing the activities that they love. Like cooking. Cooking is one of the most commonly missed ADLs, and I love how NULU helps make it more accessible. The different grasp options reduce the need for shoulder stability, and the ability to use it while seated makes it ideal for clients with decreased grip strength or endurance. I have also loved the safety features, including the stand, the sheath and the two sided cutting board with options for decreased fine motor skills and bilateral coordination. NULU is a thoughtfully designed tool that can help bring confidence, safety and independence back into the kitchen."

Kevin Byrne - Multiple Sclerosis
"I was diagnosed with MS back in 1999. During that time, I lost a lot of my function on the left side. I used to be left handed but that's kind of difficult now. The NULU knife is something that gives me back the ability to care for myself, to prepare foods and to do things in the kitchen that I couldn't in the past so it has been an absolute game changer. Thank you, NULU!"
Tucker Dupree - Blind Paralympian Swimmer
"As a blind person in the kitchen, traditional knives have always been a guessing game. With the adaptive NULU blade and cutting board these are total game changers. The top centered handle gives me ultimate control, and the board's built in mincing bowl perfectly corrals my ingredients so that I can cut with confidence for the perfect meal prep every time."
Patrick M. -Stroke Survivor
"We often take for granted the small tasks we do every day until the ability is taken away. Something as simple as cutting up kielbasa becomes a major feat when you retraining your brain to tell your hand what to do. But he did it!
This morning Patrick prepped dinner. I sent him a recipe and laid out all of the ingredients for a crockpot meal. With the help of his trusty sous chef, "Niki" the NULU knife, he cut up all the items. He was impressively precise with the sizes. It took him about an hour but he did it!" -Maeghan M.
Carolyn M. - Arthritis
"As a 79-year-old woman, I am experiencing arthritis in my hands, especially my fingers and thumbs. It affects my ability to chop salad, veggies and chicken. Not everyone likes huge pieces of meat and broccoli in stir fry! But my hand pain stopped me from getting the food pieces to dainty morsels! Nulu is the answer I needed to perfect my dinner prep. Using this knife was an absolute game changer. Better looking entrees without the pain! Perfect!"
Sue J. - NULU User
"When I started using the Nulu Knife, I was amazed how easy it was to use. Great for slicing meat and vegetables and it was so easy to switch to a chopping mode. My 22 year old grandson who has some hand mobility issues found this knife to move easily and made chopping and slicing easier. He also is visually impaired and because the knife sits up higher, he was able to use the knife without having to get his face very close to the product. I wish I had this knife years ago."
Sira R. - Spina Bifida Sufferer
Sira purchased a NULU knife at the Abilities Expo in Chicago. We caught up to her later to see how it was going.
She reported: "I'm finding it very easy to use my NULU knife!" and sent us a picture of her cutting lemon slices to put in her lemonade.
