What kind do you use? Do you love them? Pros and cons?
-
I love the Zoli but it is hard to clean!
-
We have the Munchkin Mighty Grip Flip Straw Cups and the Vital Baby Toddler Straw Cup. The munchkin cup is hard to clean and hard to put the straw back in, I don't like it very much, but there are only 2 parts--the cup and the straw. But that can make it hard to clean as there are so many corners/crannies with the cup and the sliding cover. I like the Vital Baby Toddler Straw cup a lot better, as even though there are more parts (cap, lid, clasp, straw), it is a little easier to clean since the parts do come apart and it's real easy to put back together.

We use the Tommee Tippee (sp?) ones from Target. Pro: They do not leak! Cons: A lot of parts to clean and you need to put them back together in a specific way or LO won't be able to get anything out.
We've also used a couple of simpler Playtex ones, and they are definitely easier to use/clean, but the flip side is they leak more. So, it's a trade-off.

Tommee Tippee! We love them and they are soft spout and he can't bite through them.

i also have the zoli and it's hard to clean. we're going to do a giveaway of the lollacup at some point -- i'd like to try that one out.
olive has been using a born free straw cup and seems to like it fine.

We have the Lollacup and love it! DD loves her purple penguin cup and I don't mind the parts. It comes with a straw cleaner!

Faves: Foogo Thermos straw cups (stainless steel is good for milk, but can be a bit heavy for some babies... I also really like the clear plastic version), Zoli Bot (since it's tough to clean, I prefer it only for water), Nuby No Spill Flip It cups, Take n Toss (for older toddlers)
Dislike: the Lollacup... leaks a ton!
-
@NYCaliMama: hmm you know, the lollacup does leakab I usually have to put it in a ziplock before placing in the diaper bag. Does the Zoli cup leak less or not leak?
-
@littleveesmommy: the Zoli Bot... for us it didn't leak at first... It was awesome! But over time, it started to leak more. I believe on the box it says that it's not completely leak-proof. I do think the Lollacup leaks more easily though!
-
I just use the playtex cups, and so long as I screw them together, they never leak.
-
@NYCaliMama: Have you had issues with your Foogo leaking? We bought it to take when out/about, but stopped because milk was getting everywhere.
-
@Mrs. Yoyo: no issues and I've had one for about 4 years now! I do keep it upright in our cooler bag, as I do most straw/sippy cups though. ETA: oh and I realized that if you screw the top on too tight, it displaces the straw and can leak that way. So it's key to close it "just right".
