It will leak if my 1 year old shakes it vigorously upside down but my older child has never had his leak. I have a friend who has the safe sippy and she says it will leak if tipped over or shaken. I like that the Foogo has a top vs. the safe sippy that doesn't. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-straw-cups-that-dont-leak-1/page/2#post-1534575 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 13:04:29 +0000 lady grey 1534575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Has anyone tried Safe Sippy?

Bummer...I figured they were too good to be true lol! I'm going to have to do some research. Who would have known that straw cups would be such a pain! Thanks for the FYI! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-straw-cups-that-dont-leak-1/page/2#post-1534328 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 12:02:02 +0000 kodybear 1534328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>after going through a gazillion straw cups, i settled on the lollacup straw cup. it has a vent hole so it will leak out of that hole if its upside down, but it doesn't leak enough to bother me. and i think cups need a vent hole, or else u get the weird suction issues/milk coming out of the straw issues which i ran into with the playtex ones. </p> <p>@Mrs. M: i used to think momma straw cup was the best cup ever until i realized there was mildew under the lid. did you find a way to clean under the lid?? i might just be a dummy tho. seriously i was prying the lid open to clean under it, which ended up breaking it anyway. :-/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-straw-cups-that-dont-leak-1/page/2#post-1534318 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 11:59:05 +0000 erwoo 1534318@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Blue: They are really cute! I got it at Whole Foods for $8? I'm thinking about getting a second one and just saw this one for the same price just now: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/green-Sprouts-Aqua-Bottle-Ounce/dp/B00G4DV9J8/ref=lh_ni_t?ie=UTF8&#038;psc=1&#038;smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/green-Sprouts-Aqua-Bottle-Ounce/dp/B00G4DV9J8/ref=lh_ni_t?ie=UTF8&#038;psc=1&#038;smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER</a></p> <p>I just remembered that it does sometimes have pressurized leakage when you flip the top open. It doesn't bother me since I just use it with water. But I can see why some parents don't like it if it's milk or other drinks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-straw-cups-that-dont-leak-1/page/2#post-1534316 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 11:57:30 +0000 autumnlove 1534316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: The ThinkBaby works pretty well for us. Still leaks but a lot less than the Zoli! I wish there was a smaller size for LO 2! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-straw-cups-that-dont-leak-1/page/2#post-1534309 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 11:54:28 +0000 Smurfette 1534309@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Blue: That was part of my reason for trying a sippy verses a straw again. She gets water in either kind but milk is only in the sippy, which can go in the dishwasher.

I've about decided to just use regular sippies for milk anyway since the straws are a pain to clean. I'll try those! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-straw-cups-that-dont-leak-1/page/2#post-1534299 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 11:51:56 +0000 Mrs. M 1534299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Every cup we have tried leaks. At this point we have settled with the momma straw cups because they rarely leak (especially when she throws them). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-straw-cups-that-dont-leak-1/page/2#post-1534297 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 11:51:16 +0000 MamaJ 1534297@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Blue: well crap!!

We tried giving them to the boys and they couldn't get anything out of the straw. </p> <p>@MamaJ: That's what we have been using. They worked great for a couple months, but they've started leaking even when they're sitting on the counter now. </p> <p>@erwoo: Ahh, those are cute! I may give them a try. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-straw-cups-that-dont-leak-1/page/2#post-1534256 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 11:41:53 +0000 erwoo 1534256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With my youngest, I primarily use this ONE Green Sprouts straw sippy when we go out:</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/green-sprouts-Ounce-Aqua-Bottle/dp/B004K6LMTI" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/green-sprouts-Ounce-Aqua-Bottle/dp/B004K6LMTI</a></p> <p>Actually like it a lot. The only times it leaked is b/c of user error. I was in a rush to close it and didn't realize I screwed the top on crooked. Luckily, all I ever put in there is water and nothing got damaged in my diaper bag even if all of the water had leaked out. </p> <p>I have the Playtex straw sippies but haven't used it on my youngest yet. Probably won't? It does leak if you thrash it around but I've never had huge issues with massive leakage with those. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-straw-cups-that-dont-leak-1/page/2#post-1534252 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 11:40:45 +0000 MamaJ 1534252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Blue: I just bought some playtex anytime. My munchkins started to leak. I got a two pack for $8 at target. So far so good but it's only been a few days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-straw-cups-that-dont-leak-1/page/2#post-1534249 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 11:40:32 +0000 Smurfette 1534249@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Blue: Nope! Luckily she started trying to steal another LO's at day care. So we are using Nuby sippy cups now and they are working ok. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-straw-cups-that-dont-leak-1/page/2#post-1534236 Mon, 31 Mar 2014 11:37:17 +0000 Mrs. Blue 1534236@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: Did you ever try any others??

The ONE time it leaked was the other week and that was due to user error. I was in a rush to close it and leave that I didn't close it the right way. It was on crooked and half of his water leaked out into my diaper bag. Luckily it was water and I didn't have anything that couldn't just hang dry or wiped dry. Highly recommend and they give you an extra part of the straw (the mouth part). It's slim unlike some of the sippies that are wide and won't fit into stroller cup holders like ours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-straw-cups-that-dont-leak-1/page/2#post-1363305 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 09:06:56 +0000 Smurfette 1363305@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Update:<br /> 1)Munchin ($3 at Target) in the bins on the bottom shelf. Doesn't leak but it was hard for DH and I to suck to get anything out. So we cut a small hole in the inside, much better. Only DH cut it a little big, it would leak when R left it on the floor. She doesn't like it though. Just would chew on it and not really drink. Will try again once she cuts these 2 teeth.<br /> 2) Target V-Day Bird cup. $3. Has the slit straw like the Zoli. It leaked when turned over, but at least not while just sitting on the counter. But R didn't like it. </p> <p>Apparently she only drinks from a Zoli or B. Box. </p> <p>Going to just wait a month before we try the Nubi we bought. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-straw-cups-that-dont-leak-1/page/2#post-1358575 Sat, 18 Jan 2014 17:14:55 +0000 Smurfette 1358575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yellowbird: ok, just got this and so far no leaks but you have to suck really hard to get anything out. Even hard for me. Have you experienced that??? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-straw-cups-that-dont-leak-1/page/2#post-1357194 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 16:21:08 +0000 shopaholic 1357194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: The small ones are just open on top. But these bigger ones are kind of like the Zoli straw - soft, with an "X" slit on the top. Hopefully they work! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-straw-cups-that-dont-leak-1/page/2#post-1357191 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 16:19:18 +0000 Smurfette 1357191@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: I will get one this weekend.

We had been using the small ones until this week. I got a few of the bigger ones, and the straw is different - it's closed on the top. So far, no leaks, even in the diaper bag. I think it's $3-4?</p> <p><a href="http://www.target.com/p/valentine-s-bird-cat-and-dog-sippy-cup-set-of-3/-/A-14846467" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/p/valentine-s-bird-cat-and-dog-sippy-cup-set-of-3/-/A-14846467</a></p> <p>[attach=2730/14/mzkdt2.410x410.vfay-straw-cup.jpg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-straw-cups-that-dont-leak-1#post-1357165 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 16:10:28 +0000 pinkcupcake 1357165@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've seriously tried every single cup on the market and they ALL LEAK.

It's actually so good that we remove the straw part sometimes for naps and it doesn't spill. :D </p>
