Playtex Sipsters Stage 1 Spill-Proof, Leak-Proof, Break-Proof Soft Spout Sippy Cups - 6 Ounce - 2 Pack - Colors May Vary

I'm on my 2nd child and again despite trying many other kinds, this sippee cup wins again. At least for ones with handles. It is truly leak proof....until the kid starts chewing on the end or they have been used sooooo much the inner plastic piece wears out and needs to be replaced. But hey, they can actually be replaced, which makes them like new (even if they kiddo has been gnawing on the sippy part) My all time favorite cup is: http://www.amazon.com/Tommee-Tippee-Explora-Spill-proof-Drinking/dp/B005ACPX0A/ref=sr_1_20?ie=UTF8&qid=1328914361&sr=8-20 But that's only when you have a child who could care less about the handles. For my 9month plus daughter, the handles are a must, they let her handle the cup one handed and not drop it all over. (Despite typical infant flinging, that is). I thought this cup was going to be the answer with this kiddo since I loved that other Tommee tipee cup: http://www.amazon.com/Tommee-Tippee-Explora-Spill-proof-Drinking/dp/B005ACPX0A/ref=sr_1_20?ie=UTF8&qid=1328914361&sr=8-20 However, believe the bad reviews, this thing can leak like no tomorrow. I'm shocked anyone can even give a good review for it. They do look pretty..and my daughter did get the idea of what she was supposed to do with this. But she was always soaked and the high chair tray filled with the water that could literally pour out of the cup. So again, back to these particular playtex cups to use until she she can use the other cups. Although my 3 year old will still use these cups from his first year but just without the plastic insert to reduce flow.

When we transitioned my daughter from a bottle to a cup, we started off with the Playtex straw cup because it was very easy for her to use. However, the liquid would constantly bubble up and make a mess. I purchased these and my daughter had no problem getting used to the sippy cup and we didn't have any leaking issues, at first. However, after a few months, the liquid seems to drip out from the spout, I think from the wear and tear of my daughter chewing on the spout. We're on our second set of sippy cups, same brand. I like these because they have the handles on the side that make it easy for my daughter to carry around the park. There are other sippy cups that don't leak but they don't have the handles, so it's not as useful. Pros: Handles Doesn't leak as much as other cups Affordable Cons: Color combo, you don't know what color combo you will get Leaks after some use

After some disappointing options from the local big box store I finally came to Amazon to do some review research. After an afternoon of reading a full diaper-load of reviews, I decided to give this economical duo a try. I could not care less that my son received a purple and pink set and certainly no one else has cared either. What I cared very much about was the spill-proof, leak-proof claim and I was not disappointed. Just like they were supposed to, the tops audibly clicked into place and didn't leak. Of course, after more than 6 months of heavy use the valves have become a little tired and weakened, but even now they need to be completely upside down or at a very specific angle to leak at all. But because my son is also now that much older, that happens less and less. We have now moved on to Playtex's bigger sizes without handles and once again I am impressed. Our other go-to cup is the Safe Sippy (stainless steel with soft plastic cover) and it too is a leak-proof champ, so long as the handle is on. But since that has a hard plastic straw top, these First Sipsters were definitely used the most when our son was first starting the transition to sippy cup. I give these sippy cups a non-super mom's recommendation for sure.

These cups are a bit of a miss. There is only one handle on them, and again, like some of the other cups I have purchased, these often open up a bit and spill when the baby throws them on the ground. Not a very good feature. They are nice though otherwise, I like the sleek shape, and the baby seems to like these, and has no problem drinking from them. So, aside from the mess issue, these are ok cups, but I will be looking for a better model for us.

Bought these as a replacement for some other soft tip sippy cups we had. Use these for my 1 year old son and they are perfect. They are easy to clean, easy for him to grab and move around, and easy enough for him to flip around if you give them to him with the spout on the top by mistake. I love the fact you get two of them also as we then have one for home and one for the diaper bag when we go out and about. These things have been quit durable as well Great purchase and I would easily suggest them to anyone else who might want them. EDIT: Well would like to update if you have a chewer you might not want these. My son likes to chew his sippy cups and with the semi soft like spout on these things it ended up just tearing right up with his sharp little teeth making us buy another little set. In this case I might suggest something that is a little harder on the spout end.

CW nailed it! I don't normally write very many reviews. Too busy. But this one deserves a review. I agree with everything CW said and I will add to it. I have been using sippy cups now for about 13 years and have 7 kids. So trust me - we have tried a lot of cups as well. I loved, loved, loved the old Sipster with 2 handles. I thankfully have just one left over that I am now guarding with my life. This new one has an entire rubber circular piece that fits inside the lid. There is the spout that comes up through one hole in the lid and the air vent pops through another hole in the lid. Both are extremely difficult to pop into and out of the holes. I struggle with it which means that my kids can never load this in the dishwasher without me having to help them. But don't feel bad for me - we have just thrown ours away, too. So we don't have to load them in the dishwasher any more. The one handle thing did bug me. My son still likes to pick up his cup with 2 handles and he is 14 months old. So I can't imagine giving anyone younger a one handled cup. You also have to screw on the lid just right and then tighten it really well or it will leak out the bottom of the lid. My 6 and 7 year olds could never give him his cup because they can't screw it on just right to avoid leaking. It was a learning curve for me when we started using it. Not too long after we started using the cup, the holes where the water comes out developed a tear in one of the cups. I am fairly certain it was not from the baby. He doesn't chew on things. Plus, he would somehow have to get one set of teeth down in the indentation if that were the case. Not very probable. Once that tear was there, I might as well have had a regular cup. Water poured out of it any time it was turned upside down. I had hoped it was a fluke and just ended up using the other one. About a week later, it developed the same tear. So they are now both useless and have been thrown in the trash. I am guessing that the tears developed from the force needed to push the spout down to get it separated for washing. But that is only a guess. I didn't witness that. Definitely keep looking! These were a waste of money for me.

I really recommend these sippy cups to all parents who are actually looking for a cup that does not leak! I have two kids a 4 year old and a 1 and a half year old and I have tried numerous sippy cups trying to find one that actually did what it claimed to do. My children must both be magicians because whichever cup I gave them they found a way to make a hole in it or somehow magically the water would end up in the car seat or on the floor. I found these cups by accident actually because a friend left hers in my house and I must admit that I gave it a try with my little one... Lo and behold... no spills, no holes and the cups are still going strong. I recently had to buy a couple more because my littlest one is biting the spout but the cup is still working. The cups come in different colors and the kids find them very attractive. Good luck!

Our six month old loves using this cup. A sippy cup is new to our routine but she is trying to drink from it and enjoys chewing on the spout as well. Easy for her to hold and lift to her mouth.

These cups work well! I like that the handles can come off. My 6 month old grandson has not trouble holding and drinking from them. They do not leak and the are easy to clean.

Excelente servicio

Todo muy bien

I really like this sippy cup, my daughter is 7months old and she took to it well. The only reason I am giving it a 4 star review is because there are no mls on the bottle to see how much your are putting and how much the baby is drinking, that’s important for me because I like to know.
