I have a picky 2 year old. He’s just as picky about cups as he is with food. Was looking to replace his current straw cup(popular brand- the chicken head cup) because though he likes it isn’t very leakproof. Well this cup was a huge disappointment. The design consists of 2 seperate straws that are not connected. There’s one straw that goes down to the bottom of cup like normal, then another very short straw which is where your child drinks from. The bottom of this straw sits in a small “holding space”(not sure what else to call it) under the lid- kind of like another small cup within the cup. Basically as your child sucks, the holding space gets filled and then goes into ur kids mouth. It’s a continual cycle of emptying and refilling. The problem is filling up that space is not easy , once it’s emptied your child must keep sucking to fill the space back up over and over. This happens maybe 3 times if the cup is filled to the top. So unfortunately, it’s not a stready stream. My son gets frustrated everytime it empties because to fill it back up he has to suck very hard and doesn’t get any liquid. He just tells me it’s not working and I have to go and do it for him. Even I sometimes think it’s broken and check under the lid because it doesn’t fill very quickly and I’m sucking pretty hard. Also as the cup gets filled and straw is finally starting to function, its mostly air with a small amount of liquid for maybe 5-10 seconds. It’s really not a great design- unless I’m using it wrong somehow? But I don’t think so. Going back to the chicken head cup, simple to drink, nice size straw- the one on this cup is very narrow. Another issue is if your child drops the cup, the small holding space cup has to get repositioned, which means you have to open the lid and pop it back in the correct position, which is also pretty annoying.

Purchased May 22, 2023 – It's been broken for about a month now, so barely got 2 months of use out of it before it started leaking (one of the top pieces fell out and went missing; it's $5 for the replacement part – or I could just get a new cup from Munchkin that works better for around the same price). And we're past the return window now (of course). This cup is overpriced considering that it leaked before the piece fell out. The original Zoli was a good starter cup for transitioning our son from the bottle but won't waste my money on these overpriced ones anymore.

4 stars because The flippy top lid broke off after the first trip in the diaper bag. For $21 I think it should be more durable. This was recommended for a 1 year old after laser surgery to correct being tongue tied. She does well with it. I just wish the lid was still attached. I tried and it would not go back on.

This cup was amazing. The only cup my son with oral aversion could use. That was until the weight straw WILL NOT stay on the gasket. We’ve had them less then a month and now I’m scrambling to find something my son can drink out of. Completely disappointing

The advertisement says silly cup, but only a straw. There no way a 9 month old can use the straw. My grandson is 14 months and could not get anything out of it. The instructions were no help.

Straw connector falls off continuously. Poorly designed.
