Straw cup recommendations?

mom2juliarose · Dec 19, 2011

DS has 2 of these cups and 1 of these and with all 3 the liquid keeps coming up the straw and spilling out, even when not in use. A post and search on Playtex's FB page shows this is a common complaint. Grr! DS really loves using a straw cup. Any recommendations for ones? I think right now the funtainers we have are too heavy for him to hold himself... all suggestions (plastic, stainless steel, etc.) welcome.

The Munchkin straw cups were always our favorites. We had ones like these and these as well. The flip top ones went into preschool lunch boxes for years without leak issues. The others were used around the house until not all that long ago.

Bebe has 1 of [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Nuby-Handle-Straw-Months-Colors/dp/B000Y2GY40"]THESE[/ame], 1 of [ame="http://www.netkidswear.com/nunomeflstcu.html?gdftrk=gdfV22103_a_7c486_a_7c4523_a_7cUL9650"]THESE[/ame], but my favorite are [ame="http://www.diapers.com/p/the-first-years-take-toss-straw-sippers-cups-10-oz-4-pack-6017?site=CI&utm_source=cse&utm_medium=cpc_D&utm_term=LC-006&utm_campaign=google&ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=LC-006"]THESE[/ame].The liquid comes up the straw (it's a pressure/heat thing) on the Take N Toss, but they're still the favorite. The others don't do that.

ETA: I give up...Not sure what's wrong with the forum, but I've been unsuccessful at making links lately....

If you otherwise like the Funtainers, Thermos makes a plastic version of them([ame="http://www.amazon.com/Thermos-Phases-Tritan-Bottle-Yellow/dp/B00318CLTG/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1324322099&sr=8-7"]Foogo Phases Plastic Leak-Proof Straw Bottle[/ame]), so maybe it would be light enough for him to hold.

I had NO IDEA they made plastic ones! I forgot about their Foogo line.

DH also reminded me that we had Munckin ones for DD that we liked (I think they were Dora) so I might look into those again.
