5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect, April 4, 2009

By 

Esther (Chicago, IL) - See all my reviews

I purchased 2 of these sippy cups when my son was 7 months old to get him started on transitioning from nursing to eventually using a sippy cup. We skipped the bottle all together. He caught on very well to this cup and we haven't turned back since! He likes a few other of the Nuby cups (sports sippy cup) but this one seems to be his favorite.

Besides the soft spout, I also like that this cup comes with a top, since we have dogs, I don't have to worry about my small dog getting to my baby's sippy cup. It's also great when we go out, I can put the top on and know if it falls on the floor (or gets thrown) that it won't get as dirty.

As far as the wear and tear, I have never had to replace the spouts, and my son has been using them for a little over four months. I take good care of the cups, using the tops, and cleaning according to the instructions (dish washer). I don't let my son use the cup as a chew toy, just for drinking and they still look brand new. If they do get worn, the replacements are very inexpensive so I'm not worried about that.

I have never had these leak, except when my son pinches the spout with his fingers, which he doesn't do very often. It truly doesn't leak at all, unless it is defective.

This review is from: Nuby 2 Handle Cup With Soft Spout, 10 Ounce, Colors May Vary (Baby Product)

After many false starts and difficulties with transitioning my daughter off the bottle - at 18 months she still wasn't catching on - I tried this one, since it seemed to be similar to what she already had (a drop-in type bottle with the hole in the top cut WAY big!), and it turned out to be a big success. She took to it well and we were able to leave the bottles behind within a couple of weeks. I also liked the idea of not having to take several miniscule pieces apart to clean it, since it doesn't have a valve. So that's the good points.

The bad points are first of all it leaks dreadfully. The spout just contains a couple of little flappy bits of plastic which are supposed to stop it spilling, but it doesn't work since the weight of the fluid in an upturned cup is way more than these tiny, fragile flaps can contain. Also, those tiny, fragile flaps break off after a few uses, making it even more leaky. My daughter didn't seem bothered by the increased flow this causes but it does mean that any time the cup spends on its side or upside down (which as you all know who have been there is about 85% of the time), it's hemorrhaging fluid. A waste of juice and a lot of clean up. It also leaks around the top where it screws on, it's not a watertight seal, and that led to a lot of stained clothes before I caught on and only gave her clear fluids like water and apple juice.

Fortunately having worked with this for a few weeks, my daughter had grasped the theory of a sippy cup so we went and bought a couple of Avent ones with no return valves, more work to wash them but at least my couch and carpet are dry most of the time now.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Starter Cup!!!, August 14, 2008

By 

Jennifer (Michigan) - See all my reviews

I absolutely LOVE these cups. When we started my daughter on sippy cups we tried every cup we could find and she refused to drink from all of them. We finally found this cup and she would actually use it!!! We found that we preferred this 10oz, 2 handle model opposed to the 7oz one with the handles on the cup part (thse are on the lid). We had issues with the other type tring to get the lid on so that the spout wasn't over the handle - if you under tighten or over tighten it will leak. These ones with the handles on the the spout piece were great.

We didn't have any issues with her using them while she was teething. After a 6-9 months of normal use the middle piece of the spout did tear and we had to replace them. Mainly it ripped when it did because she started sticking her tongue in the spout- in the slits. It was at this time that we decided if she could do that then it was time to switch cups and by then she would/could drink out of a 'normal' sippy cup.

We just started our son with them and at 8 months, this is now all he uses. He had absolutely no problems transitioning from the bottle to the cup. (Which is really great for us since our Ped. likes to see them off of the bottle by the time they are a year.)
