Design Keeps Drinks Cold
June 25, 2017
I got a chance to try these cups as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel and am so glad I did! I have an 18 month old who is very specific about the cups she uses. We went through nearly 10 different types and brands when she first started using a sippy cup and settled on a few that worked well for us at the time. These Chicco cups blew away the competition on insulated sippy cups! First, I love how few pieces there are. Because insulated cups aren't dishwasher safe, the less pieces to handwash, the better. The pieces included: the cup, the sippy lid, an optional valve, and a lid cover. And it was SO easy to assemble. Seriously, assembly one-handed was possible. This cup design is so sleek and the spout cover had a low profile and not a massive dome so it also fits neatly in our cabinet, lunchbox, and diaper bag. One feature I really like is that you can remove the valve from this sippy cup and the drink will flow naturally so older children used to a quick flow cup will love this and parents who want to avoid a mess can appreciate a cup with a normal flow that isn't just an open top type cup. The 9oz size was also great to travel with so we didn't need to take more than one cup when out and about since our previous cups were 6oz and we used to have to pack two to accommodate our toddler. I found that it kept milk and water cool and the cup didn't sweat at all because it is double-walled. I was worried it would be big for her to hold, but it was very lightweight and easy to tip to drink from. My only complaint and reason for the 4 star rating is that my toddler is hard on her cups. She loves slamming them on the table. With the sippy valve in tact, she was able to slam the cup so hard on the table to get milk to spray out the top and onto the table. Note: we also tested the straw version and it didn't happen with that cup. I love the color options available on these cups too. Cute designs for every style!
