The Zilla product family are soft, very durable chewies. The idea behind Zilla is a chewie that is as durable as the strong tube but softer to chew.
Now the Zilla is available in a smooth variety as well as the textured one. The smooth Zilla is available in both a Jr and normal size.
The material used is very nice, very smooth and doesnāt squeak. It reforms to its original shape very quickly. It feels different from any other chewie material I have ever tried, in a good way.
The Zillas are available in 2 colors; Blue and Red.
The Zillas all come with a 60 day, no-chew-through warranty.

The B-buddy is a handheld chewable from Chubuddy. The B-buddy comes in both smooth and textured as well as two different hardnesses (chew factor 1 and 2). The B-buddy is made from silicone.
The B-buddy can be held in a variety of ways thanks to itās two loops and 2ā³ stem. You can easily attach it to a lanyard or tether&strap (second picture, using the chubuddy universal chewie strap).
The softer B-buddy is excellent for mild chewers. It is quite soft (60A durometer) and chewy. The softer B-buddy comes in either Red (smooth) or Teal (textured).Ā
The tougher B-buddy comes in Blue (smooth) or Purple (textured), and is a great handheld option for moderate chewers. It is quite hard (75A durometer) when brand new, but will soften up during use (as silicone usually does).
My personal favorite B-buddy is the Purple (tougher and textured) thanks to itās lovely vibrant color.
Overall the B-buddy is an excellent choice for mild to moderate chewers that like big handheld chewies.
The Parachewer is a hybrid paracord and strong tube bracelet. It is made from paracord and a 1 1/4ā³ piece of the slim strong tube. It is Chubuddys only Chew Factor 3 (Strong) bracelet.
The parachewer bracelet is very discreet and fits most wardrobes. Because of the shape the chewable part cannot be chewed with molars or back teeth. Because the tube has two strands of paracord in it, the chewie feels tougher than a regular slim strong tube.
The bracelet comes in three different sizes and four different colors: blue, red, green and yellow.
Overall I would recommend the parachewer bracelet for those looking for a durable, stylish and discreet chewable bracelet. In my opinion the parachewer fits moderate to aggressive chewers.
The paracord part of the bracelet is not made for chewing
The Chubuddy VibraZilla is the latest addition to the Zilla product line! The VibraZilla is a therapeutic tool made for sensory seekers as well as those with oral defensiveness.
The VibraZilla consists of two parts, the vibration handle and the Zilla head. The product also comes with four silicone ID bands to differentiate between multiple identical heads (for example if an Occupational Therapist has multiple clients that use the VibraZilla). Replacement heads are available in a pack of two. Ā
The Zilla head is the same size as the beloved Zilla Jr and is just as durable as the other Zilla products!
The VibraZilla has 6 (six) different vibration modes: HighBuzz, LowBuzz, LowInterval Massage, GentleMassage, HighInterval Massage and BusySignal.
The VibraZilla can be used to lessen oral defensiveness by getting the user used to the vibration slowly. Getting the user acclimated to the VibraZilla can aid in getting them used to brushing teeth.
For sensory seekers the VibraZilla is made to be used for 15 minutes at a time as many times as needed throughout the day.
My personal favorite mode is BusySignal (a quick pulse).
Below is a picture of a Strong tube 1/2ā³ that is over 1 year old. The tube has been chewed on for hundreds of hours, and still looks great. The only wear that is visible is how the tube has gotten a bit stretched (wider at the end)Ā and therefore has lost some of itās gloss. 1 year old vs Brand new Strong tube:
Big Strong 9/16", Strong Tubes 1/2" and Slim Strong Tubes 3/8" on clip-on and neck lanyard

The long awaited CordZilla is finally here! The CordZilla isĀ 3 1/4ā long and 1/2ā³ thick. TheĀ CordZilla differs from all other Zilla in one major way: it is a hollow tube that is open at both ends (See pictures 3 and 4). CordZilla is on the right in both pictures). Due to this minor change a paracord line can be thread through the Zilla (from the bumpy thinner end). When the paracord is through the Zilla, tie a knot at the end of the paracord and pull it back into the Zilla a bit.Ā
In my opinion the installation process is very straightforward and simple. One thing to note though is that in some hoodies the cord has been attached at the top to avoid it accidentally being pulled out, this means that any hoodie with a sewn in cord will not be replaceable with the paracord.Ā
The package is looks very sleek and modern. Included in the package are the two CordZillas, a line of paracord, a straw and installation instructions.Ā TheĀ CordZilla is available in two colors, blue and red. The cord is available in either black or rainbow.Ā
Due to the attachment method of the CordZilla, the larger and smooth part of the tube is whatās being chewed (mostly). What this means is that it feels softer to chew than the other Zillas, even though the material is the same.Ā
Instructions for installation are under theĀ āKeep Readingā
The installation process works differently depending on if your hoodie has a cord or if it is cordless (aka. had a cord that has been lost, removed, pulled out etc.). Instructions with pictures are included in the package.
If the hoodie has a cord:
Untie the knot on one end of the cord
Attach the paracord to the old cord with tape
Pull the old cord all the way through to the other end
Remove tape and old cord
Pull on cord ends until they are equal in length*
Thread the paracord through the bumpy end of the Zilla tube
Tie a knot at the end of the paracord and pull it into the Zilla
Repeat steps 6 and 7 for the other cord
If the hoodie does not have a cord:
Thread the paracord through the plastic straw until it reaches the opening of the straw
Staple the cord to the end of the straw
Thread straw through the hoodies hood until the cord reaches the other cord hole
Remove staple and straw from the paracord
Pull on cord ends until they are equal in length*
Thread the paracord through the bumpy end of the Zilla tube
Tie a knot at the end of the paracord and pull it into the Zilla
Repeat steps 6 and 7 for the other cord
*Bonus step: if the cord if too long you can trim it down. Since the cord provided it paracord it should be cut and then melted (for example with a lighter, so that the inner strands are in place).Ā
A bigger and stronger version of the Strong tube has been released -The Big strong tube. Now the Strong tubes exist in 3 different sizes: Slim (3/8ā³), Regular (1/2ā³) and Big (9/16ā). As of now the Slim tubes come in 5 colors (blue, black, red, yellow and green), the Regular in 6 colors (blue, black, red, yellow, green and clear) and the Big in 2 colors (red and green).Ā
The Big strong tube comes on either a lanyard (black with dark blueĀ āchubuddyā printed on) or an embroidered (dark blue with yellow embroidered text) clip on tether.Ā
Long time followers may remember that the Strong tube due to its durability (among other things) is my favorite chewie. The Big strong tube is tougher than the Regular size and is therefore recommended for very aggressive chewers or those who prefer very firm chewies.Ā
I recommend this chewie for people who love very firm chewies that are chewable with back teeth - a combination that is quite rare. This chewie is something that can be moved up to from the Regular strong tube. Due to itās firmness I would not recommend this chewie for anyone with TMJ or similar jaw problems or for people who prefer soft chewies.Ā
Overall, this is an amazing chewie - it is even stronger and bigger than the already incredibly resilient regular strong tube.Ā
The Zillas are very durable chewies made out of a soft āTPZā (Thermo Plastic Zillastomer) polymer. The Zillas are 70AĀ durometer (soft). The material is very responsive and veryĀ āchewyā, something which is difficult to achieve in a super tough chewie.Ā The Zilla material is not āshinyā, thus not attracting much dust.Ā
The Zillas come in two sizes (4ā³ long andĀ āJr.ā 3 1/4ā³ long, both 1/2ā³ in diameter) and in different designs:
Tube Zilla (Clip on and Lanyard)
Tube Zilla Jr (Clip on and Lanyard)
Zipper Zilla
Pencil Zilla
Pen Zilla
Cord Zilla (not yet available)
The Tube Zilla Jr. is 3 1/4ā³ long and the diameter is 1/2ā³. The end isĀ ācappedā so you donāt need to worry about saliva running through the tube. The Zilla is divided into three different texture zones; smooth, ridges and partial ridges.
The material used is very chewy and responsive, which makes it excellent for a chewie material. The material does not seem to take almost any damage from chewing (at least my Zillas have yet to show any sign of wear and/or tear).Ā
A larger version of the Tube Zilla is available (4ā³ vs theĀ āJr.ā 3 1/4ā³) for older people or those with larger mouths.Ā
Pros:
A very durable chew that is much softer compared to the other very durable chewies
Works for almost all chewers
Has three different textures
Available on a neck lanyard or a clip onĀ
Comes with a 90 day no-chew-thru warranty as well as a 100% money-back warranty.Ā
Dishwasher safe
Made in the USA
Cons:
As of now only available in bright red (light blue to be added later)
May not work for people with severe TMJ or jaw problems as the materialĀ ābounces backā to itās original shape quickly (which also gives it itāsĀ āchewinessā) which may result in jaw fatigue/pain
