I'm not a fan of this sippy. I love the design but the membranes are CONSTANTLY falling off the lid and into the cup. I have to frequently pour out my daughter's drink in order to retrieve the 2 floating membranes...who has time for that! There are definitely better sippy cups out there without the hassle of having to fish out membranes.

This is an expensive cup and should be free of major flaws. Sadly it has the major flaw previously mentioned of the membranes falling out each time it is dropped or even jostled. This morning, I packed my child's drink in the cup and sealed it in a zip lock baggie for our bike ride. After riding to the destination, with the cup placed in the child carrier, I found half the liquid in the baggie, membranes at the bottom of the cup...one big mess. It wasn't even dropped! Even if your child never drops this cup and you never jostle it around, a curious child is bound to push on the air flow valve that peeks out of a hole on the top of the cup - any curious finger is strong enough to dislodge the valve and push it down into the bottom of the cup, making it a leaking machine. I bought this cup because I was looking for a quality cup that wouldn't leak. What a disappointment.

Another design flaw of this cup is the handle on top. It is a double bar of sorts that loops up on the top of the cup at just the right width and angle that my child's nose pushes though the middle of the handle, effectively pinching her nose closed while drinking.

There are better cups out there. Don't waste your time or money on this one.

The bottom on this cup is great but the valve insert falls out if the cup is banged (which my toddlers are experts at) rendering it like a regular cup and not at all spill resistant. There is also a little tiny plug in the vent hole and it can come out as well and is hard to find in the liquid in the cup.

I was looking for a BPA free, stainless steel sippy cup for my young daughter (7 months old). I really like the size and ease in using this cup. The cap screws on tightly and the grippers on each side are very easy for my baby to hold. The only things that kept me from giving this cup 5 stars was that the water flows out very quickly...faster than I expected for a sippy cup. I think it will be good when she's older to drink more. Also, the color "whirled peas" is actually a very bright, neon green. The picture makes it look like it's more of a muted green. Still nice but just not the color I expected. I would recommend this sippy cup to anyone looking for a sturdy, BPA-free alternative.
