Have you noticed that the straw stains easily?
I let LO use his cup while he eats, which has left the straw stained orange from his sweet potatoes. Other than buying replacement straws, any tips to get the stain out?

Yes...ours is stained. I haven't replaced it because I know it's clean but it does bug me.

I haven't noticed it just the leaking. So annoying.

Yep, ours got stained. I try not to let it bother me, haha.
@autumnlove: @Smurfette: How much are yours leaking?? I notice that if I don't get the lid on just right, then it leaks like crazy, but as long as I have the lid on correctly, I have very minimal leaking (only a little bit out of the straw). Is that what you're referring to? Or do you have a LOT of leaking between the lid and the cup? If you have leaking between lid and cup, it might not be aligned correctly.

@Pepper: And the leaking....ugh. I regret using it almost every time I do.

I HATE this cup. It's supposed to be so great, but what is up with the leaking??? It leaks just sitting on the counter.

@Adira: Ours leaks are from the straw but LO likes to shake it because he knows liquid comes out so I try to avoid using it if I can. lol. It also leaks if you accidentally tip it on the side like in the diaper bag or something.

@bushelandapeck: Oh really?? I feel like ours doesn't leak that much... though I do always put it in a ziploc baggy when in our diaper bag just to be on the safe side!

@Adira: It leaks just sitting on the table from the straw more then the lid. I have tightened the lid but it still leaks. I keep it in a Ziploc bag in the diaper bag.
@septca: I just ordered this from amazon. Someone on HB said that it doesn't leak.

okay is it just me or do you think the zoli cup is hard to suck out of? i bought the zoli and tried sipping water out of it and it's hard! i give my lo the playtex straw cup and it's soooo much easier. is it just me? did i get a defected one or something?

@dolphin: I think it is easier then the cheap straw cup from Target I bought at Christmas (was a Santa). But that was the only other one we bought. She can use a regular straw at a restaurant, but too much comes out and she ends up spitting out water all over herself.

@Smurfette: Thanks!
We primarily use these two, neither of which leaks, or the Take and Toss, which obviously leak but are much easier to drink from.

@septca: I will keep those in mind if the one I just ordered doesn't work out. I have spent too much money on finding a cup that works for her! Finally got the Zoli and now it leaks everywhere.
