Nuby 360 Grip N' Sip 8oz Tritan Cup, Weighted Straw with Hygienic Cover, Blue

I had this cup for my first kid and have repurchased it for my second because of now nice this cup is and how easy to use it is. Some other straw cups that are advertised for babies were even hard for me to get anything out of and this one was so easy for my kids to use and get drinks out of. The straw part does come off as well so the cup can be used as a regular sippy cup as well which was a very nice feature that we took advantage of frequently. The only thing to note is that after about a year of use it did start to leak, I wasn't upset because we definitely got our moneys worth out of this cup but just wanted that to be known.

Truly zero leaks! We love this so much.Our daughter loves the handles. She has graduated past the weighted part now which makes these bottles even better because the weight/straw is not needed. It works with or without.They fit perfect on the side pocket of our itzy ritzy mini diaper bag as well.

This cup has been a great transition cup for our toddler as we have been phasing out bottles. But he wouldn't really take to standard sippy cups because he got frustrated with not understanding he needed to tip them up to get milk to the spout, especially if he was holding it and feeding himself, which we are trying to encourage. This has helped with that big time. Now he just wanders around the room sipping without any real issue, aside from when the milk level gets low and the sink doesn't quite angle right to pull it in. A minor issue really.There are some quirks about this cup though and while it works great, it is a little bit more complicated than it seems.First: It's not as leak proof as they claim. At least not without doing everything exactly right. First you have to make sure the silicon spout is in the cap snugly and is aligned properly. Make absolutely sure to look underneath and make certain that the edges are all in place and flush with the edge of the cap. If not, or there is any bulging or any part of the edge is concaved, it WILL leak.Second: This is important, but do NOT overtighten the top. It may seem counter intuitive, but we found out the hard way that if you overtighten it it will be prone to leaks. And that's because the silicon seal rests firmly on the inside (or underside I suppose?) on it's own, but if you really cinch down on the cap when you screw it on, it will push the top edges of the cup inward really tight and cause the outer edges of the silicon insert to bow outward, causing space and, of course, leaks. Tighten it until it doesn't turn anymore, but don't apply hard force. If you are forcing it, you are over tightening. Trust me, it took us awhile to get what was going on here, but once we did figure it out, the problem almost completely went away.Third: If the sink insert separates and falls down into the cup, which happens sometimes especially if your baby drops it on a hard floor, then you may find that it keeps slipping out and falling back in every time you put it back. The fix for this is simple. You just need to make sure that the plastic insert on the sink and the inside of the silicon fitting for it are both good and dry. If they are wet, the sink will just slip right out again. Take either a paper tower or a microfiber cloth or towel and wipe away all the moisture from the surfaces that meet each other - that is the outside of the plastic insert and the inside of the silicon fitting. If they are both dry, when you insert the plastic, the silicon will have a lot of friction against the plastic and hold it in place with a really good grip. Remember, wetness works against you here.Fourth: If you dribble a lot of milk onto the threads of the cup, itself, then it will dribble out a bit even after its screwed on. Just wipe the threads down until its dry and you're fine.The instructions say you can't let your toddler bite or teeth on it and...we'll you try and stop a teething baby from chewing on this thing. That's not exactly something that you can always stop. Sure enough, he's chewed holes and splits into two of these things which causes a leaky spout. Like I said, exactly how do you effectively stop a teething baby from chewing on this thing? I feel like that particular instruction is kind of a frustrating one and wish that maybe they instead made the spout a little more durable instead of putting it on us to prevent something that is near impossible to prevent. Even when we do catch him doing it and pull it out, all it takes is a sharp tooth in the right spot to pierce through so by the time we stop it it may already be too late. I feel like they should have worked on this more instead of putting it on us.Again, this is a great cup and a great purchase. But I see a lot of people complaining about the little bugaboos about it and a lot of them actually have solutions. So I hope these tips helps some people out there and you can avoid the trial and error my wife and I had to do with it. I'd recommend it highly, just keep these things in mind to make your life and experience easier.

I have gone through TONS of different cups in various styles and had been unsuccessful in finding anything that my twin boys would drink from. We tried the Munchkin straw cups and both of my kids couldn't get anything out of the straws. We tried multiple cups without straws, but I felt that they were almost "too leakproof" and my kids weren't getting anything out of them. I bought these as a final attempt and I am so glad that I did. Both of my boys are drinking their milk so well! My kids will throw the cups from their high chairs and it won't make a mess of the floor. The only negative I would give is that the straw has a tendency to fall down into the cup, so I have to keep checking to make sure it's still attached. Not enough of a complaint for me to go down to 4 stars (personally), but just something to be aware of.

This was my 1st kids favorite sippy cup. Something happened in production 3 years later. I bought this set as a replacement, I still have the original bottom to the first cup but our first child decided to chew on the old nozzle rendering it useless. The new rubber insert of the lid doesn't fit them well and always leak now. Plus the weighted straw constantly pulls off making it just a sippy cup not one with a straw. If it didn't leak that would be ok but our 1 year old has problems tipping cups back, not that you want to tip this cup back because it leaks. Not impressed by this cup. The Munchkin Any Angle with weighted straw trainer cup works much better, but the straw is a lot harder to clean and you need some super suction power to suck on that straw.

Love. Love. Love. Only way it more is if it were glass. It has a very thick durable plastic. My LO has dropped many times and it’s still in great shape. Comes with a handy lid for traveling. Baby can drink when laying in all kinda of crazy positions and doesn’t have to raise cup up. We tried many sippys before finding this one and I wish we found it sooner! Buying more for sure!
