Which straw sippy do you use?
We currently use the zoli and while I like it I don't love it. It leaks but probably bc M is quite vicious with it!
Thinking about getting the ThinkBaby next time I see it on a sale site. I just wish it was smaller.
Which straw sippy do you use?

We had a Zoli that I liked but one day I left it at the playground. I couldn't bear to buy another $15 cup and instead bought a 4-pack of Munchkin cups on Amazon. They do the job (DD didn't even notice) and I don't care if they get left at grandma's.

We have a zoli, but now that DS is able to handle the volume from a larger straw we are probably going to just use the take and toss straw cups. I can't stand cleaning th zoli!

We have the Zoli and the lollacup. I like the Zoli but find it really hard to clean. The lollacup is easier to clean but the straw is way too wide, which I think my LO finds overwhelming to drink out of but she's only 8 months. It's also hard to screw the top on properly.
And they both leak, so I guess in short, we're still searching for a better option!

My LO had destroyed every cup I've ever gotten him so I stopped wasting my money and just use the take and toss straw cups now.

We use the Tommee Tippee ones from Target. They stand up to a lot of abuse and don't leak.

We have a Zoli, Thinkbaby and Lollacup! The Lolla is a leaky mess, the Thinkbaby is kinda big and the Zoli is nice but LO trashes the straws!

We have the take and toss ones too. My only problem with those is she likes to take the cups and smash them against the table. I think it will be a watery mess! And with the hard straw I would be afraid of her poking herself.
@Mrs. Yoyo: I'll have to check it out!

M chews on the straw of the Zoli cup like it's her job. Who knows if she actually gets any water out of it. The straw, though, I still haven't figured out the best way to clean it....
I may check out those Tommee Tippee ones, as well.

@mediagirl: @regberadaisy: Just know they're kinda big. So I don't know if they'll be too unwieldy for smaller LOs.

@mediagirl: I use this sippy cleaning brush set from Oxo to clean our Zoli! Works like a charm

We use Munchkin cups for daycare (water only), a camelback kids for when we're out and about (water only), and this AMAZING cup from Old Navy for milk when we're home. The straw is the same thick plastic as the cup itself (non-biteable). The straw has a rim on it so it can't be pulled out of the cup top (non-flickable). The cup itself only leaks from the very little space between the straw and its hole (non-spillable). The cup is $5 but we have 5 of them-- we even bought a pink one in preparation for when LMW starts drinking from them too.

@prettylizy: how do you clean the straw tho? Do you just stick the brush down the top of the straw?

@regberadaisy: yep, the long skinny one fits perfectly in the straw so I shove it in from the top and then again from the bottom. Cleans it out in a breeze

Returning the stupid Zoli! Any more suggestions?
