MunchkinAny Angle Sippy Cup for Toddlers, Spill Proof Weighted Straw Cup with Transition Handles for Babies 6 Months and Up, 7 Ounce, Blue

The easiest bottle to train baby to drink with a straw. The was a little bit of leakage but I don’t see that anymore. Easy to use and easy to wash

I’ve been using the Munchkin Any Angle Sippy Cup for a few weeks now with my toddler, and overall, I’m very pleased with it. The build quality feels solid and durable, and the design is clearly well thought out for little hands.Pros:Weighted straw allows drinking from any angle, which is perfect for toddlers who are still learning.Spill-proof design really works — no leaks even when tossed around.Easy to grip handles make it simple for babies to hold independently.Affordable price for the quality and features offered.Cons:Cleaning the straw can be a bit tricky without a small brush.The lid can be a little stiff for younger kids to open on their own.Overall, this sippy cup is a great transition tool for babies 6 months and up. It’s functional, safe, and budget-friendly — definitely a product I’d recommend to other parents.

The media could not be loaded. This cup is definitely not perfect, but it's the best training straw cup I've found for my daughter who is currently transitioning from a soft spouted sippy, and so still regularly tries to drink with it upside down. The weighted straw feature is the best designed I've seen. For that reason I'm giving it FOUR STARS, in its intended function as a training straw cup. If the weighted straw is a key feature you need in a sippy cup, then I'd definitely recommend this cup. But if you're just looking for the best sippy cup period, this one is only mediocre overall (I'd say TWO STARS), so I'd give it a pass.PROS:- Best-designed weighted straw I've seen: It has a rounded bottom and the weight is disc-shaped, so the weighted straw moves super smoothly around the cup and my daughter has no problem drinking at any angle.- Fairly leak resistant (when using room temperature liquids), meaning if your kid tips it upside down or throws it across the room while using it, at most a drop or two will come out (whatever was already at the top of the straw). But I would not trust it beyond that (see below)However, this cup also definitely has some negatives:- The click lock feature isn't super helpful, and makes it unnecessarily hard IMO to open/close the cup (if you overtwist it, it's very difficult to get off)- The flip-top lid is not securely attached and falls off frequently. As a result, this cup is definitely not one you'd trust upside down in your diaper bag- In addition, if you use this cup with cold/refrigerated liquids, the temperature differential causes the liquid to get sucked up through the straw and spill out of the top. Like, all over the place! (This issue will occur with any sippy that does not have a vent) So, I only use it for room temperature liquids, like water or freshly pumped breast milk. If you want a cup that can be taken in and out of the fridge, this is not a good choice- Handles are not removable (not a huge deal though, since I figure that once my daughter no longer outgrows the handles, she'll also have outgrown the need for a weighted straw)- Hard to clean (due to the weight at the bottom of the straw). For this reason I usually only use this cup for water (or if I need to use it for milk in a pinch, I make sure to wash it out immediately & thoroughly afterward)However, we live with these negatives and still reach for this cup first (during this training phase when my daughter is still regularly trying to drink with the cup upside down) because the weighted straw feature is so much better designed than other cups.For those also considering the ZoLi BOT Straw Sippy Cup - Orange 6 oz: I used that one for several years with my son. Same idea in general, but the weighted straw does not work as well; the cup has to be turned almost entirely upside down in order for the weight to fall to the top of the cup. However, the Zoli also has some advantages. It's much easier to get the lid on/off, and the flip-top lid is much more securely attached as compared to the Munchkin.)I will continue using this cup as a trainer until my daughter learns that she can keep her straw cups upright while drinking, then I will get rid of it and transition her to a straw cup that has a vent, can be tossed around in my diaper bag without leaking, is easier to clean, and is probably also not made of plastic. For the record, my favorite sippy cup for older babies / toddlers / preschoolers (who don't need handles or a weighted straw) is the THERMOS FOOGO Vacuum Insulated Stainless Steel 10-Ounce Straw Bottle, Blue/Yellow.I'm posting a video highlighting the key features of the Munchkin (including the weighted straw, click lock feature, and flip top lid) and also comparing the Zoli. Also a picture of my daughter drinking of out of this thing while holding it tipped up & backwards with no problems. Hope you find them useful!

This cup addresses most of the faults that traditional sippy cups have.1) Tipping. My first kid always wanted to tip the cup to drink, but with some sippy cups (those with straws), that stops them from working. The others HAVE to be tipped to continue using them, which my second kid never seemed to grasp. This cup works no matter what angle it is at, because the straw is flexible and has a weight to keep it in the liquid.2) Leaking. The straw has a valve to stop accidental leakage. It also has a flipping lid that prevents accidental leakage. It seems to work pretty well and only leaks when you cross-thread the lid. YES, you can cross-thread it rather easily, but it doesn't take long to figure out how to stop that.3) Breaking. The cup is plastic. The flipping part of the lid will snap off easily, but it doesn't break (unless stepped on) and can be easily put back on. The plastic is pretty tough, so I haven't had any problem with the cups breaking.4) Cleaning. It comes with a flexible brush to make it easy to clean.

I bought these for my daughter to help transfer her to sippy cups. She never had a bottle and didn't get the concept of the other cups (360 cups) so when I saw these were weighted I was very excited (I bought 2). They worked pretty good. They do the job. Only cons I have are if the cups not twisted correctly, it will leak, you have to hear it click and it has to be on correctly. I also am not a huge fan of the straw part. The whole straw part is one piece versus the mouth piece and straw being 2 pieces. This made it difficult for cleaning and allowed mold the grow. To prevent this, I washed it daily and didn't have a problem after. Once my daughter got the concept of a straw and not needing it to be weighted, we now use the OXO tot transitions cups and munchkin cool cat cup.Overall, I'm very thankful for these cups. My daughter had such a hard time with every other cup except these for a long time.

One of the most recommend cups, but not spillproof and takes some trial and error. Took my son a while to figure out the straw (they have to bite it).
