3.0 out of 5 stars Straws don't last!!!, August 30, 2007

This review is from: Munchkin: The Cupsicle Insulated Straw Cup (Baby Product)
Like another reviewer we have found that these cups are great, except the straws are destroyed VERY easily and replacements are impossible to find. Ordered replacement straws from Munchkin's website almost three weeks ago, and not only haven't received them no one at Munchkin has bothered to answer my customer service inquiry into where my order is!! The easiest route would be to buy whole new cups -- seems like Munchkin has figured this out and that's why the straws can't be found!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Cheap replacement straws impossible to find?, June 2, 2007
= Durability:1.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Munchkin: The Cupsicle Insulated Straw Cup (Baby Product)
I bought this cup for my daughter (2). In our brief experience, it was leakproof when the straw is closed, disassembles/reassembles easily for cleaning, and is easy to spot when dropped out of a wagon! Handles are a plus since it doesn't roll far... It also keeps cool drinks cool for a little while which is great in summer. It taught my daughter how to use a straw; she couldn't figure out with just a hard straw.

Sounds great?

The bad news is that my son (4, a borrower and a chewer) bit several holes in the straw after we had the cup only a few days. He even bit off a small piece. The cup is sold "everywhere" locally, but replacement straws are not. Shipping/handling on a 2-pack of straws is exorbitant at online vendors I've checked. We are retiring this cup for now and moving on to a popular "reuse/discard" style of cup with hard straws - they lack all of the above good features, but at least their straws are still usable after a chewer has been at them.

Not recommended unless you have NO chewers in the family - or until replacement straws are available locally.

1.0 out of 5 stars The Thing Doesn't Work, September 13, 2008

I can't make this thing work.

Once it's assembled, I myself, a grown man, can not suck anything through the straw. I can sometimes get it to let a little liquid through, with great difficulty, if I jiggle some things around a bit. But that's only if I get lucky.

Moreover, the thing is hard to assemble. The straw has to go inside a chamber in the lid, bend around a little bit, and exit a hole on the other side. But getting it to bend the right way is a matter of pure luck. You have to just close your eyes and sort of hope for the best. Half the time I end up just getting the straw bent against the inside of the chamber.

Finally, the lid has a mechanism that closes when the cup is not in use, hiding the straw and preventing leaks. The problem is, the mechanism takes considerable strength to open. It's never jammed or anything, but to open it I have to stop everything I'm doing and struggle with the thing for half a minute or so. That's not convenient.

I don't know if some of us are just getting a bad batch of cups or what, but in my experience, this cup is literally unusable.
